Cass
Real love is an illusion that left me heartbroken and a single mother. I tried, failed, and am finally picking up the pieces. No one will convince me I need to give love another chance, especially not the sexy as sin pilot who attempts to do just that. He is annoying and won’t go away. Why won’t he take a hint? And why am I letting him get under my skin? I should just forget him, but for some reason, I can’t. His ice-blue eyes are destroying the walls of protection around my heart.
Ace
As a pilot, I live for the rush of flying thousands of feet into the air. I didn’t do relationships. The word commitment was not part of my vocabulary. I had fun, played the field, and did whatever I wanted, but one weekend with her changed everything. I couldn’t forget her. Cass is guarded, but I can see over her walls. She’s afraid and hurt, but I won’t let that stop me. I plan on healing her heart and winning over her and her son, and unlike the idiot who let her go, I never will.
Review by Twinsie Angie
I grabbed this book from Audible when I saw a WOTR author had a book I could burn a credit on. The narrators did a great job bringing Cass and Ace to life for me.
Cass thought she had met the pilot of her dreams, and then she found out she had not. She thought he was the baby she was carrying’s dad, but in fact, he was not. Embarrassed and ashamed, she bragged she got the “One”; she hid herself and her baby away. She was determined to live a great life for her and her son.
Ace rolls into town and is friends with Cass’s friends. It took him a few tries to wear her down to go out with him when he realized that one night stand in Vegas was with CASS!!! Ace does everything he can to reassure gun shy Cass he is the guy of her dreams before telling her (In my best Maury voice) He IS the Father.
I really enjoyed Ace doing all he could to prove to Cass he is the one when at every turn she ran.
Maria Vickers is a bestselling and award-winning author who currently resides in St. Louis, MO with her pug, Spencer Tracy. She has always had a passion for writing and after she became disabled in 2010, she decided to use writing as her escape. Life is about what you make of it, you have to live it to the fullest no matter the circumstances.
From a young age, she has always loved books and even dreamed of being an author when she was younger. Growing up in the Navy, she used to weave tales for her siblings and her friends about anything and everything. And when she wasn’t creating her own stories, she had a book in her hand. They transported her to another world. She hopes that her readers will have the same experience when reading her stories, and that, in some way, they can relate to her characters.
Getting sick changed her life forever, but it also opened doors for her that she thought would always be out of reach.
