paddlefoot55 's review for:
Flying
by Megan Hart
ARC RECEIVED FOR AN HONEST REVIEW
I have read quite a few of Megan Hart's books in the past and have enjoyed them, as I did with Flying.
Her books all lean to the quirky side of things, and it is one of the things I enjoy most about them
Flying is no different. Stella spends her weekends in airport bars, having one night stands with strangers. It is her way from escaping her life as a lonely, a bit depressed, single mum. While it is not the way I would go about things, whatever floats her boat!
I loved that Stella is "normal".... she works, she looks after her teenage son. She has her troubles. She has lived her life and is clawing her way back to feeling alive again. I could relate to a lot of things in her life (not the single mum bit, but lots of little things she says and does).
I loved Stella's main protaganist in this book Matthew ~~ well at least most of the time. From the first minute they meet you can feel the attraction between them - but you can also feel the hesitance from both sides.
I think the great things about Flying is the slow burn of their relationship. There is no insta-love in this story (insta love is a pet peeve of mine and irritates me no end!!). They both want to keep things casual, but there is that pull that leads us to know that things will never stay casual between them.
As much as I love Matthew, at times he was completely selfish and I wanted to slap him around the ears and tell him to wake up to himself. Stella drops everything for him and he doesn't do the same
“But you weren’t here. You are never here. I come to you, and you don’t ever come to me. I am there for every bitch and moan and hand-wringing emotional breakdown you ever have. And you were not there for me for one. F&*king. Night.” ~~ Stella
I wasn't sure what to expect when I read the synopsis, but I knew whatever I got I would enjoy it. One thing that it did not have as much of as her other books is lots of sexy times. Sure there was sexy times, but there was so much more to this story than just hot monkey sex!
While at times I was berating one or both of our MC's, I was always cheering for them to get their acts together.
And do they get their act together and get their HEA?
For that you are going to have to read for yourself!!
