Synopsis: 

Taut Writing and Breakneck Pacing That Will Keep Readers Up All Night

Katie Singleton, a partner with the Elite Guardians Protection Agency, stumbles upon her next assignment quite by accident. Spotting blue lights at a familiar restaurant, she stops to investigate, only to discover that owner Daniel Matthews has become the target of someone who will go to any lengths to put him out of business.

Daniel might be concerned, but he's not convinced that a bodyguard--and a female one at that--is necessary. A new attack and his niece's urgings are enough to make him reconsider. He and Katie must figure out who's behind the intimidation and threats--before a would-be killer strikes again.

Witty dialogue and a simmering attraction will have readers flying through this tension-laced thriller. Eason exercises complete control of her readers' emotions as they race through the pages to discover the truth.

My opinions

First, I have an interest in planes and the fact that the characters were pilots was super cool. Of course their flights were not your typical first class flight but terrifying because of, you guessed it, sabotage!

The elevator in the plane failed so the pilot had the passanger move the seat back to change the center of gravity further back in the plane. 

Isnt that so interesting??? (Answer: YES!)

You'll have to read the book to find out *which* characters survive the flight!

I also really liked the elements in the book about PTSD and war. Obviously I cant say I have ever had to deal with this kind of haunting memory but it did help me to understand better. 

I dont know if this book would trigger bad memories but I do know that there is a very inspiring message on community that applies to us all: Life on our own is hard, its always better to find a friend to help us through our struggles!

In the book, the characters were constantly being attacked at gunpoint and all sorts of crazy things. I actually could not follow through to figure out the ending... It was a lot of fun to try to see who was actually a good guy and who was actually a bad guy. 

Personally I dont favor a book which is soley about the drama between a couple or love triangle so that was a big plus for me!

I think the book deserves 4 stars and it would be great for anyone who loves planes or knows someone struggling with PTSD. 

You can pick up a copy here for $8 from Amazon.
