Features & Highlights

  • FLYING SOLO IS WAY OVERRATED
  • Noah Fisher has worked for months to make Sky High the most prestigious charter airline in California. He's long overdue for a break--something involving ski slopes, cold beers, and hot ski bunny babes. The itinerary doesn't include being hijacked by Bailey Sinclair, gorgeous widow of one of Sky High's wealthiest (ex-) clients. But here they are, and being crammed in a cockpit with the scared, stubborn, unbelievably sexy former model could get Noah in

You can tell this is an older book

FTC: Review copy courtesy of the publisher in exchange for an honest review

This is a reprint of the first in the Sky High series by Jill Shalvis which originally came out in 2007. And while you can get echoes of her now distinctive (and hilarious) voice in it, it does not come close to her more recent works in either characterization or charm.

Part of the problem is that this is an attempt to be both a romantic suspense book and a contemporary romance. Something it doesn't quite accomplish with any real skill. In a series of madcap episodes, the hero and heroine hop in planes and fly hither and yon trying to find hidden money at the heroine's deceased husband's unfinished resort properties.

I found the whole plot a little weird, really. Nothing made sense to me, the motivations and actions of the characters didn't match with who they were supposed to be, and other than an attraction, there didn't seem to be a lot of basis for a relationship between our hero and heroine.

As always, I liked the secondary characters, and the potential is there for the rest of the series (which I have not yet read). This one just didn't gel for me, but given how excellent Jill's recent books have been, she may have set the bar too high.

Hot and Streamy

This is the first book that I have read from Jill Shalvis. I could not put the book down. It contained all of my favorite things in a book: adventure, passion, multiple characters, heroes and is part of a series. Can't wait to read Shayne and Brody's stories.

Smary and Sexy (Sky High) book #2

This series of books were delightful to read, interesting and something new to read about. Sky High is something different then the usual backgrounds that are out there. Jill Shalvis did it again.
