When Izzy Astor gets on a plane to go home, she isn’t expecting much. It’s the usual holiday travel experience: busy, crowded, stressful.
Then she spots her seatmate, who is anything but ordinary. Nate Phelan sports dark hair, blue eyes, and a deliciously rugged charm that Izzy can’t resist. Their connection is undeniable. Izzy never believed in destiny before, but she does now.
Just ninety seconds after takeoff, their plane goes down in the Missouri River.
Their lives change. They change. Nate goes on to a career in the military while Izzy finds her way into politics. Despite a few chance encounters over the years, the timing never feels right.
Then comes a high-stakes reunion in Afghanistan, where Nate is tasked with protecting Izzy’s life.
He’ll do anything to keep her safe. And everything to win her heart.
Absolutely loved this book. Izzy and Nate are a couple who can just not seem to get their timing right. They met for the first time, by chance, on a plane...that went down. Their subsequent meetings are by chance and fleeting but the chemistry and connection are undeniably present. The timing has never worked out for them between Nate's military career and Izzy's advancements in her career but they find their paths meet again--in Afghanistan. Can the two of them sort out their unresolved feelings? Will they finally get their chance?
Though I can recognize the issues people have with the bones of this book, as a story, I loved it--a story of chance, timing, chemistry and destiny. Is it farfetched? Sure, but I'm not reading for historical, political or current event accuracy.
