"Heartfelt and romantic, Noué Kirwan has crafted an authentic love story about family—both born into and created—and the power of forgiveness that will stay with you long after you've read the last sentence." —Tracey Livesay, author of American Royalty
Her life is up in the air—literally...
Lanie Turner has some loose ends:
  • A nearly complete PhD.
  • A job she basically enjoys.
  • And a lifelong crush...that she's almost gotten over.

  • On a trip to reunite with her family in England—and said crush, Jonah—Lanie intends to take care of one of those items. Her favorite cousin, Gemma, is engaged...to Jonah. And they want Lanie to be both their maid of honor and best "mate" at the wedding. It's the perfect opportunity to prove the pitying gazes wrong: she's over Jonah. Really.
    As Lanie travels between New York City and London to help with wedding prep, she befriends her handsome seatmate. Dr. Ridley Aronsen—a widower and single father—who is prickly at first, but feisty Lanie reminds him of a more carefree time in his life. And after a steamy layover in Iceland, the pair take a direct flight from seatmates to lovers. Ridley even agrees to be her plus-one for the wedding. For once, everything seems to be falling into place.
    But Lanie's used to getting hurt, and Ridley finds opening up difficult. How will a long-distance relationship even work once Lanie's back in NYC permanently? It's easy enough to let one more loose thread unravel...after all, life's problems seem tiny from thirty-five thousand feet in the air.
    From the author of Long Past Summer and perfect for fans of Bolu Babalola, Preslaysa Williams, and Jill Santopolo, Noué Kirwan's next novel is a jetsetting treat for every armchair traveler.

        Complex personal struggles, family drama, and a slow-burn romance are the ingredients for Kirwan’s tepid second novel (after Long Past Summer). Melanie “Lanie” Turner’s life is a mess: her best friend and lifelong crush is marrying her cousin, and she’ll be spending the months leading up to their U.K. wedding flying back and forth over the Atlantic to fulfill her duties as “their best mate of honor.” Anxious, heartbroken, and convinced of her own inadequacy, she doesn’t expect to find an connection with her handsome—but rude—seatmate, medical researcher Ridley Aronsen. Focused on his job, which frequently takes him from London to New York, and stepdaughter after the death of his wife two years prior, Ridley does not have finding love on his life’s plan. But as his path continually crosses with Lanie’s mid-air, their initially inconsistent and awkward interactions evolve into a deep friendship and eventually love. The romance moves at a snail’s pace as the plot mostly focuses on Lanie’s and Ridley’s painful backstories and lives away from each other. Readers will need considerable patience to get through this one.
