Emily is doing it tough but has a great plan to get things back on track, it will just mean flying back and forth across the atlantic a couple of times and week and hardly seeing her son ... but it's worth it.
Olivia is a busy business woman and her travel schedule crosses paths with the intriguing new first class flight attendant, Emily. Olivia is brilliant in many ways but it's fair to say social skills are not her strength so how can she make a good impression with Emily?
Emily is too busy for a relationship with anyone, especially one of her passengers, but can these two work it out?
What I liked about this book was that the characters weren't perfect and it wasn't a simple linear development of their 'relationship'. What didn't I like? I can't say but I look forward to reading the next book.
Overall I was surprised with a couple of different turns in this book but I did like it, I would recommend it and I will read the next instalment.
I received and ARC for an honest review.

Oh my goodness! I am literally fangirling right now! What a book! What a perfect book! I loved this. For several reasons. Number one being Olivia Lewis. I loved the fact that she was “socially awkward” (most likely on the spectrum) that was a complete breath of fresh air, and being autistic myself, I could relate to Olivia’s way of thinking more than once.
Henry and Emily were great characters as well. Emily annoyed me a little at first, but I quickly warmed up to her, and Henry was just this perfect five year old kid who weasels his way into Olivia Lewis’ heart.
To think that this story was once a SwanQueen fan fiction is actually a little hard. And not because there’s anything wrong with fan fiction (I love fan fiction!) but because the characters Emily and Olivia are so fleshed out and “alive” it’s hard to imagine that they used to be Emma and Regina.
I absolutely adored this book, and obviously, I have already ordered the next two books in the series. I need to know what happens next!

I read the trilogy so I'll talk about these books in relation to each other. This was a decent introduction to the characters and their stories, but it ends on a cliffhanger, which I absolutely hate, and it was, at least IMO, the weakest of the three. Still fun to read and a solid introduction.

I remember when the author was known as CurvyPragmatist, back then I read this in it's entirety as a Swan Queen fanfiction. I never bought the books back then because as far as I was concerned, I'd already read it. It's a good book and I'm sure the entire series is wonderful. I will definitely be finishing the other books.

Each book in this series seemed to develop incredibly slowly. I enjoyed how earnest each of the main characters were about their interest in the other but the story just moved a little too slowly for me.
