FLYING SOLO IS WAY OVERRATED Noah Fisher has worked for months to make Sky High the most prestigious charter airline in California. He's long overdue for a breaksomething involving ski slopes, cold beers, and hot ski bunny babes. The itinerary doesn't include being hijacked by Bailey Sinclair, gorgeous widow of one of Sky High's wealthiest (ex-) clients. But here they are, and being crammed in a cockpit with the scared, stubborn, unbelievably sexy former model could get Noah in serious trouble. . . Praise for Jill Shalvis and her novels "Shalvis makes me laugh, makes me cry, makes me sigh with pure pleasure." Susan Andersen, New York Times bestselling author/ "Hot, sweet, fun, and romantic! Pure pleasure!" Robyn Carr, New York Times bestselling author "Witty, fun and sexythe perfect romance!" Lori Foster

How can a book with “smart” in the title be so dumb? Best things about this: I skimmed/read it in one day, got a #BookSpinBingo out of it, and it‘s off my shelf. I have loads of criticisms here, though I‘ll try to keep it to a minimum. First - hero seduces heroine after a day literally running for their lives while she‘s been living in fear for a week - WHILE SHE‘S SLEEPING. Second, heroine is an ex-model-turned-second-grade-teacher, (cont)

ravenlee whose wardrobe consists entirely of clingy, revealing dresses/skirts, high-heeled boots, and skimpy underwear. All of which drives the hero wild (and hinders her escape from goons) so that he can‘t resist ripping those clothes off her for sexy times while they‘re trying to escape, sometimes while being shot at. Third, writing/editing errors are egregious, and horribly distracting. Fourth, series set-up is clumsily done. 👇🏻 3y
ravenlee And finally (because I‘m stopping, not because I can‘t continue), the climax is so stupidly handled - MCs have spent entire book running around trying to find this hidden money at various resorts, yet all the time it was hidden in a wall safe behind a painting (exactly where heroine suspected and checked everywhere they went) IN HER OWN BEDROOM? And she never once thought to look there. 🙄 Thought my eyes were going to roll right out of my head. 3y
ravenlee Overall - please skip this book, pretty please. I wish I had. Now I regret the reading time wasted and the shelf space I could have used for something else. 3y

Um, I believe that word is “palpable.”

EDIT: later on I also found a bit about Noah needing to “temper down” his reactions or emotions or something. Not terribly impressed with the writing/editing in this.

MelAnn Maybe he was considering eating her desperation 😂 3y
