About this audiobook
Angela Hogan is a pilot. A good pilot, and one of the few female flying aces of the 1930s. Struggling to make a living while the Great Depression rages, Angela has no problem running a small business and competing with men who believe a woman’s place is in the home. She has a plan to bring in business. All she needs to do is break the record for flying from Newfoundland to Havana, and that’s exactly what she plans to do. But when a competing air freight company threatens her livelihood, Angela has no choice but to hire a hotshot pilot with a reputation for setting records in the air and being a lady’s man on the ground.
Jack Clancy doesn’t like bossy women. He prefers blondes with more beauty than brains, but he takes the job at Hogan Air Freight in order to save enough money to ship his own plane back to the States and get it the repairs it needs. He tries to tell himself that’s the only reason, even as he is drawn inexplicably to Angela Hogan. The female pilot and her determined attitude bother Jack, but that doesn’t stop him from fantasizing about what lies beneath that prim and proper exterior, even as she squares off to fight him at every turn.
Soon Jack and Angela’s shared passion for flying turns into a passion for one another. But Jack has no intention of becoming tied to a woman like Angela and having his wings clipped. And Angela has no intention of leaving the flying to the men so she can become a homemaker. She intends to finish what she started and break the record for the flight she had planned, even when it turns out that the record she’s breaking belongs to Jack Clancy.
Editor's Note
New York Times Bestselling Author...
This 1930s set historical pits two pilots against one another during the Great Depression. Both are determined, stubborn, and talented, with conflicting goals. Stuart’s writing is compellingly sexy, and her characters are always memorable.

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Liked the story and just enough history to keep my interest and I liked the love scenes was left to the readers imagination. And the narrator was ok for me I just speed up.
Looking forward to more. Thanks glad I found a great author I have listened to a few that I liked the story but it was hard to finish because of the narrator. - Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Great story. I would give five stars, but I didn't like narrator voice.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5I liked the story very much. But the narrator was not my favorite. I like it when a narrator becomes the subjects, becomes the part of the book not just reading a story.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5This interesting storyline had enough tooth to maintain interest. With believable, likable characters and a little history. Many twists but all tied up.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5A well plotted book. The characters were interesting. The writing style was well balanced, neither too much nor too little self-reflection on the part of the main characters. The sex scenes included only the necessary details, the rest usually implied. I greatly appreciated this as I don't like reading detailed love scenes unless the love scene is an integral part of the plot
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5Fun story, good writing. I just lost my trust in any of the research when it was stated the dusk came early up North even in the summer. Never heard of the land of the midnight sun.
