I really enjoyed this book, even when I eas frustrated but thats what makes a great book. When it can get me to feel any sort of way, thats a win. This can be read as a standalone but i would recommend reading in order as you do see characters from the previous book in here. I hope we get to see more of this town and these people, I will be first in line to read it.

I really enjoyed this read. Jody has always been in her sister’s shadow. While out with some friends she meets Holt, but there is a mistaken identity. Jody is completely different from her sister and my heart really went out to what she had to deal with. She has finally had enough and wants to do something for herself.
I have to say I really fell for Hold right along with Jody. There is a moment that he comes to Jody’s defense and I loved it.
Will Jody finally achieve her dream? Will she also get a HEA with Holt?
Overall I really enjoyed this read. All of the characters added a great element to the story. You can read this book as a stand alone. The author does a great job with her writing and pulls you right in. I can’t wait to read more from the series. 1-click and get started today.

Taking Flight (Code of Honor Book 2) by Brooke May
Another read by May. Brooke knows what to do to keep her readers coming back. Taking Flight is the second book in the Code of Honor Series.
Jody has signed away her life because her sister always gets what she wants. While on tour she meets a handsome pilot who she falls for. The quote I chose for Jody is: “Since when is sex ever supposed to be pretty?”
Holt has had a long life in the Air Force as a pilot. Going to Germany was supposed to be a night filled with beer and women. German women, but life doesn’t always work like that. The quote I chose for Holt is: “If there is a nice woman out there, I haven’t found her yet.”
Rock star, military man, mistaken identity, romance
I absolutely love the rock star romance genre, and this is a fantastic new take on that! I enjoyed the mistaken identity twist.
I really enjoyed the contentious relationship of twins Jody (sometimes called JoJo) and Jilly. I really felt for Jody, always coming in second best to her younger sister, even though Jilly is a conceited, stuck up, snob.
I did’t like Holt when we’re introduced to him in this book. He’s just out on the prowl to get his, but through his interest in Jody he grew on me as we begin to see another side to him.
I enjoyed the “hide and seek” aspect of Holt and Jody getting together and finding themselves with and without their normal surroundings.
My reasoning for 3.5 stars with all the good things described above?: While I thoroughly enjoyed the book, it left me feeling like something was lacking, or that I was unfulfilled, but I can’t determine why or what was missing. I’m really enjoying this series as a whole and think this goes well with book one. I will certainly continue reading as new books come out.

So cute! This book is a romance novel to keep in your bookcase for whenever you need a good pick me up. “Taking Flight” is about Holt, a pilot in the Air Force, and how he stumbled upon the woman who changed him. Jody is the band manager for her twin sister, but has a secret of her own. After being kept in the shadows for so long, she needs someone to inspire her to break free and fly. This book is about personal growth, confidence, love, and sacrifice. It has everything an amazing novel needs.

The perfect love story! Patience is a country girl who grew up a Tom boy. Duke is a country boy who grew up trying to become the right man. In this love story, Duke and Patience have one special night as kids before everything changes. Fast forward time, will they be able to fix what they have lost? After going through hell and back, each in their own way, they try to make their way back to one another. This book is about faith, love, and dreams. I recommend this story to anyone who loves happy endings and childhood dreams coming true.

Holt Preston is an Air Force pilot. He joined the Air Force right after graduation. He loves the freedom of flying and has no plans to leave as his friends have done as they have settled down.
One night on leave, Holt goes bar hopping and ends up in the same bar as Jody Meadows. Only his friends think that she is Jilly, her famous sister. One touch sends electrical sparks between the two. The connection sets in motion happenstance meetings and both desire more from their lives than they have ever had before.

This is not a fun and light romance read, which is why I enjoyed this book so much. The two MC’s are real with problems and hardships to overcome outside of their potential romance. But that’s not to discount the push and pull to see if they will give their love another chance.
Patience is a FMC that I feel so many can relate to, feeling low in life and going through the process of a divorce. Duke is an American soldier returning home after being medically discharged and diagnosed with PTSD. These two were best friends throughout their childhood, coming to the realization that they both liked one another after graduation, but Duke enlisted with the Marines and disappeared from Patience’s life for the next 8 years.
I felt that the characters and the circumstances were very realistic, though I wanted to smack Duke upside the head for the way he disappeared and stayed gone for so long. Patience has had a lot to deal with in life, but she’s still kicking and enjoying running the bakery in her family’s local grocery store.
I absolutely loved the side characters, both Duke’s and Patience’s moms and P’s aunt, and their meddling ways.
Trigger warning for mental and physical abuse, cheating, PTSD, and loss of an animal, and loss of a child.

Taking Flight (Code of Honor Book 2) by Brooke May
I wasn’t sure if I was going to love this book as much as the first but I did. At first I felt so bad for Jody, but as I got further in I started feeling less sorry for her and was hoping she would finally stand up for herself.
Holt seemed to be at a crossroads but I think his chance encounter with Jody was the beat thing that could have happened to him.
There were some moments that I wanted to cheer out loud while others I wanted to shake Jody and her horrible sister.

Taking Flight by Brooke May a fabulous five-star read. This is number two in the code of honour series, and I loved it as much as the first, it was so nice to see the other side of the story, it just built more and created this amazing depth to everyone. It could be read as stand-alone, but I would highly recommend that you read them in order, as you do get so much from each story. Brooke May is such a compelling writer, I have enjoyed so many of their stories, but this series has been my favourite as even though I haven’t liked all of the characters but its just made it a much stronger story. Do not miss this amazing series, or this sublime author.
