Luna has never made it through a flight without nearly passing out. So when a family emergency forces her onto a plane for the first time in years, she's already one breath away from a full-blown panic attack.
Captain David Walker doesn't do nervous passengers. Especially not the kind who cause delays, challenge protocol, or ask too many questions. He's got his own reasons for keeping things strictly professional, and a very firm no-romance policy at 30,000 feet.
But when a twist of fate puts Luna on David's flight again...and again...and again, they're forced into a reluctant sort-of friendship that starts to feel a lot like more. From turbulence in the skies to layovers that linger too long, Luna and David begin to learn that the scariest part of flying isn't the height - it's letting go.
She's terrified of the sky.
He's afraid to come down.
And love? That was never part of the flight plan.

Tessa Sinclair always imagined her wedding day would be perfect-with a few manageable glitches. But nothing could have prepared her for walking in on her fiancé and her best friend minutes before saying "I do." Her world shatters in an instant. Her soulmate? A liar. Her lifelong best friend? A backstabber. And as if the universe wasn't cruel enough, Nathaniel Ford-her arch-nemesis since middle school-is standing right beside her, watching his own dreams crumble. Because Nathaniel was supposed to marry Lauren-the backstabbing best friend. Two weddings, two betrayals, and one giant catastrophe later, Tessa and Nathaniel are left humiliated at the altar while their exes ride off into the sunset together. But just when she thinks things can't get worse, she discovers the final punchline: The ultra-luxurious, all-expenses-paid honeymoon in Bali? Non-refundable. And guess who plans to use it? Brad and Lauren. Absolutely not. Determined to not let the cheaters win, Tessa and Nathaniel make a spiteful, impulsive decision-they're taking the honeymoon instead. Together.

Unwilling honeymooners. Will their romantic getaway end in disaster-or in something neither of them ever saw coming?
