Fly Home to Me by Chalon LintonMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
Source: Received to Review
Genre: Christian Fiction
Book Description: A traffic jam is the last thing Piper Holland has patience for. The dry cleaner’s will soon close, and she really hopes to wear her luxury silk blouse when she pitches her theme to the editors of the magazine she works for. But when she finally sees what’s caused the backup, she feels a pinch of guilt: a man in a military uniform is gallantly pushing a stalled vehicle off the road. Suddenly her rush to the dry cleaner’s seems incredibly unimportant. Fate offers Piper a chance to redeem herself, however, when the handsome good Samaritan crosses her path again.
Gabriel Orsini, a fighter pilot stationed at Luke Air Force Base, seems to be the perfect man, and an assignment at the magazine offers Piper the perfect chance to get to know him better. Her “Day in the Life: Hometown Heroes” article was tailor-made for the bighearted pilot. Before long, their interviews for the article enter date territory, and Piper realizes she’s falling for Gabriel. But her tragic past has taught her one thing: everyone leaves. And the transient lifestyle of a military man leaves her no doubt that Gabriel will eventually abandon her too. With her heart on the line, Piper must decide: is the risk of loss worth the possibility of forever?
My thoughts: Fly Home to Me is a novel that just makes you feel good while you are reading it. Piper and Gabe are two people who have had heartache in the past. Piper tries to shut herself off from other people and Gabe cares about everyone. It is interesting to think about how people handle stress, heartache, and other trials differently.
Gabe is just a good man who is perfect for Piper. He is patient and in all sense a gentleman. To me, this story was more about Piper. She has to change her perception and her goals to find happiness. Her transformation is compelling and feels real. I'm not going to say a lot about it, because this is a book that I recommend for everyone.
I enjoyed the patriotic aspects of the book. Gabe is a fighter pilot. The book brought home how much our men and women in service (and their families) sacrifice.
The romance is sweet. This book is all about forging a relationship. The trials, the friendship, the ups and downs that come when you fall in love.
The book kept my attention from start to finish. The pacing is great, the plot is solid, and the characters are wonderful. It is a Christian romance.
