Avelyn Johnson, a flight attendant with a heart full of wanderlust and a penchant for serendipity, has her usual airport ritual: a steaming caramel macchiato from her favorite coffee shop. As she waits for her order, her attention is drawn to the man in line behind her-Fransisco de la Cruz, a charismatic and sharply dressed realtor with an air of confidence and just a hint of mystery.
Their paths collide-literally-when Avelyn turns too quickly, almost causing Fransisco to spill his espresso. Apologies and embarrassed smile are exchanged, and what could have been an awkward moment or perfect chance encounter turns into... Nothing. Before they can explore the spark, the boarding call for their flights interrupts them. They part ways, believing their brief encounter was just a fleeting airport moment.
Fate has other plans. As Avelyn takes her place as the second lead flight attendant in charge of the economy cabin on her next flight, she's stunned to see Fransisco seated in first class, reviewing property listings on his tablet. Equally surprised but undeniably pleased, Fransisco can't help but flash her a knowing smile as she welcomes him aboard. Over the course of the flight, their paths intertwine in unexpected ways-shared glances, moments of conversation, and an undeniable connection that grows with every interaction.
By the time the plane touches down, both Avelyn and Fransisco know their meeting wasn't a mere coincidence. It was the start of something neither of them saw coming-a story of two souls finding love in the in-between moments of life, where the ground ends and the sky begins. As their lives continue to crisscross through unexpected destinations and heartfelt choices, they'll learn that love, like flight, is about taking risks, embracing the unknown, and trusting the journey.
This book was written in 2016 when I was obviously going through a ruff time, and honestly this book sucks. But I'm to lazy to edit it all and don't seem to care about it since I was sooo young. But enjoy?
