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 commutes between New York City and London to help with wedding prep, she befriends her handsome seatmate. Dr. Ridley Aronsen—a widower and single father—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. And how will a long-distance relationship even work once Lanie’s back in NYC permanently? It’s easy enough to shrug off another loose end…after all, life’s problems seem tiny from thirty-five thousand feet in the air. “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

When I first saw this book, I thought it would be a perfect book for me. However, I struggled to get through this. Lanie and Ridley didn’t keep my attention. Most of all, I’m not a fan of Lanie allowing her family to run all over her. The relationship between Lanie and Ridley was just okay. I do like that we get to see both of their POVs, but it wasn’t enough to make me love this book. However, this book could be perfect for someone who loves slow burn and messy drama! It’s a cute book, but I hate that I couldn’t enjoy it more. Thank you to Net Galley and the publisher for allowing me to read the eARC in exchange for an honest review.
