Taking Flight by Brooke May
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Jody Meadows is a woman to whom singing and music have been her escape from her life in the shadow of her twin sister, but when her sister wants something, she gets it and one fateful day, Jody signs her soul away so that her sister can get what she wants, again. Holt Preston is an Air Force Pilot and has been in the military for years, but now he is starting to feel like he is stuck, he has flown in and out of the front lines and seen more than his fair share while out there, but now he is on leave in Germany and all he wants is to take advantage of the German girls and beer, but this night is going to be something different.

Jody is taking the night off just to let loose and enjoy herself, yes, she has a couple of bodyguards with her, her hair is straightened, her contacts are in and she is dressed in her sisters clothing, but her sister she is not, as she down shot after shot, she loosens up and sings and dances the night away, until someone starts to dance with her. Holt and his friends are in the last bar of the night when he spots a beautiful and sexy woman singing and dancing on the bar, he has no idea who she is, but his friends do. He is so taken with her that he cannot resist trying his luck and approaching her while she dances and this one action starts a chain reaction of passion which neither of them were expecting.

In her shock at what she has done, Jody rushes out of the bar. back to her friends and complains she isn’t feeling well, so they head back to the hotel, but life goes on and the next afternoon amid a hangover from hell, Jody has to marshal her sister around to make sure she gets where she needs to be and at the right time, meanwhile, Holt has woken up not being able to stop thinking about the mystery woman at the bar the night before, to the point that he does everything he can to run into her again, however, when he does, he realises that she isn’t the person he thought, it turns out that it is someone in her entourage instead. At this point it makes it his mission to try and work out the mystery behind the woman and Jody is the woman he is intending on trying to figure out, but will she let him in, or will her sister do her usual thing and put a stop to whatever this could be before it can even start? This is a romance where two people meet and the connection is undeniable, but as external forces engage in the story, the ending is something you will be racing through the book to find.
