Something in the Air

Written by L.H. Cosway

Narrated by Will M. Watt and Stacey Holmes

Michaela Olsson has found her soulmate in James Khan. There are just a few teeny, tiny problems…

One, he’s her boss, two, he’s too old for her, and three, well, he happens to be engaged to somebody else.

She’ll take this crush and bury it deep. She’ll take it to her grave. James already belongs to another, so she’ll lock her secret up so tight it’ll be deprived of oxygen, suffocate and die.

Too dark?

Matters are only made worse when James asks her to move into his newly purchased house to supervise the renovations. Working together every day is bad enough, but living in a house he owns is far more intimate than she expected. Then, when James decides to call off his wedding without any explanation whatsoever, Michaela wonders if perhaps her feelings for him aren’t as one-sided as she thought.

While he was engaged James shared a flat with his fiancée, but now he’s moving into the house that Michaela has been living in by herself. She hadn’t intended for it to happen, but the place has started to feel like home, and with the object of her affections suddenly sharing her living space, things become infinitely more complicated. And heated.

Soon Michaela learns she might’ve had more to do with James calling off his engagement than she could’ve possibly imagined.

Something in the Air can be read as a standalone and is book #2 in the Running on Air Series.

Audiobook: Narrators - Will M. Watt and Stacey Holmes

Wow! I fell completely in love with this book again. I love to listen to a book as a reread and that was my plan with this one as I loved it when I initially read it. However, I have to admit, I loved listening to this one more than I ever loved reading it. I could not turn it off! I knew what was going to happen but these narrators were so perfect and their voices absolutely enthralling that I couldn’t stop listening. To say I was mesmerized by them both is not overstating it. What’s so amazing about me loving it that much is that I sometimes struggle with narrators who have an accent and yet that was not the case with either Mr. Watt or Ms. Holmes. I already want another book performed by this duo!



This is a beautiful story of pure romance and I could not put it down!


’Quite like jumping from a new and untested height, there were very many things that could go wrong. But when it went right, there wasn’t a feeling like it in the world.’


Michaela has had a crush on James since she first met him. But he’s engaged to another woman, so she fights to hide her attraction which is difficult when she finds herself helping him to restore his house. When the wedding is canceled and life takes a sharp turn for him, she’s quick to be there in any way she can...but are the feelings growing between them true or a result of his emotional turmoil?

I loved that this couple started out as friends and their relationship grew from there. Michaela was sweet and kind, just what James needed. She had a few insecurities that had left her living life in the shadows, but watching her step into the light that was James was wonderful.

James in turn was not a camera hog or a man who had been around the block a time or two. Instead, he was the strong, loyal type that stayed in the background. I loved having his point of view. I felt like I was really able to get to know him and thereby fall in love with him, just as Michaela did.


’With Michaela, my caveman instincts took over. All I wanted to do was claim. When she leaned close, nuzzling her nose into my neck, it was all I could do to keep from growling.’


There isn’t a lot of drama throughout this book but when it shows up things get pretty heavy hearted. I hurt for Michaela but my heart was breaking for James. This couple were just so perfect together and I needed them to get their happy ever after.

This was a great read with low to mid-angst. While the chemistry is very real between this hero and heroine, this is actually a slow burn. But holy heck! When this couple decide to cross the line, they set my kindle on fire! With the rest of the Running on Air characters there were great moments of humor. I love the banter these guys engage in. Overall, this was a wonderful book that promises even more wonderful things as this series continues.
