My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This is a story of redemption and true love. The author Thia Finn did an amazing job of capturing the terror that an abused woman goes through. She tackled the terror and danger that a victim faces as they make the decision to break loose from their abuser. This book is full of action, adventure and romance. I was on the edge of my seat from the first page to the last and just couldn’t put it down. Conrad and Callie face so much together and there seems to always be something else waiting just around the corner. I really enjoyed seeing the sparks of hope and the thought of a new life start to grow within poor Callie and push her forward to becoming the person she was always meant to be. Be prepared for this amazing book to take you on an emotional roller coaster ride but it is so worth it in the end.

Kiss Me Before Flight by Thia Finn

No person should ever have to deal with the horrible treatment that Callie did.  What she endured over the years of her marriage were a true nightmare and Ms. Finn did an amazing job in describing her pain, suffering, feelings both good and bad and showing how difficult living in and then deciding to leave that situation is.  It’s so easy from this side of the fence to make decisions and pass judgment for her not leaving sooner.

Conrad is a man like no other, especially as far as Callie is concerned.   He would do anything to keep her safe and he showed her that as well as let her heal physically as well as emotionally.

I felt the despair, desperation and fear that Callie must have felt along with her roller-coaster emotions.

I throughly enjoyed this book even with the sensitive subject matter.  I thought it was well thought out and written and will be looking for more books by her in the future.

Kiss Me Before Flight
By Thia Finn

This book captivated me from the beginning. I enjoyed the fact that the main characters were a bit older. The characters come across very relatable. Callie has been through so much at the hands of her husband and she’s trying to get away. CC has been through a lot himself and when his sister in law asks for his help because her neighbor is in need he is there to help. The attraction between Callie and CC is apparent from the first time they meet but there are more important things to deal with first. I enjoyed this book and I look forward to reading more by this author.

Kiss Me Before Flight by Thia Finn

This is the first book I’ve read by Finn. It won’t be my last. I will also be looking up Samantha Cole’s books. Kiss Me Before Flight is a wonderful read.

Callie is trying to escape her abusive husband. He beats the living daylights out of her. Her neighbor steps in and gets her some help. Will Callie find another chance at love. The quote I chose for Callie is: “He did a number on you this time, Callie. Today might not be the day but soon, very soon.”

CC, Conrad Chapman, loves to fly. When he gets a call asking for a favor. He goes to the rescue and finds a beautiful woman. She’s being hunted by her husband. The quote I chose for CC is: “You’re right, but the decisions are hers to make. We can like them or not, but, in the end, the best thing we can do for her is to make suggestions or offer solutions and let her go from there.”

Highly recommended for Contemporary Romance lovers.

Thia Finn did a fantastic job portraying suspense and pain of an abusive relationship. I had a hard time putting this book down. The characters were realistic, and the struggles they faced were very well-written. The emotions were heavy in some scenes, but that’s what made it such a wonderful read. It was easy to get lost in the tale that Thia Finn weaved with this book. I will definitely be reading the rest of her books.

Kiss Me Before Flight by Thia Finn is part of Samantha A. Cole’s Trident Security world. I was hooked to this story from the first chapter.

Callie wants to escape her abusive relationship and with the help of her neighbor’s brother-in-law that might be possible. Conrad “CC” is the pilot for Trident Security and with their help, he’s trying to help a woman that makes him feel things he hasn’t felt since his wife died. Will Callie be able to escape and will she ever be able to find her independence?

Thia’s writing had me on the edge of my seat wanting to know what was going to happen next. Plus, now I have to know more about this world that Samantha has created.

Kiss Me Before Flight by Thia Finn is a spin-off from Trident Security Series by Samantha A. Cole. You don’t have to have read the Trident Series to be able to enjoy this book. I hadn’t and still really loved reading Kiss Me Before Flight.
The first thing I will say is that this book has triggers. There are particularly brutal scenes of domestic violence and non-consensual sex.
Callie and Conrad’s story had me hooked from the very beginning. The book is intense and really keeps the reader on their toes and fully engaged throughout. My heart just broke so much for Callie and the horrific life she lead before meeting Conrad. I have to say that Conrad is one of the sweetest tough guys you are ever going to meet and I just adored him throughout the whole book. The world needs a lot more guys like Conrad in it.
Apart from Callie and Conrad there is a great cast of secondary characters who bring so much to this book: from the evil Bodine, Callie’s husband to the lovely Jane, Conrad’s feisty sister in law.
This book is very well written and flows very well. The storyline is fast paced and keeps you entertained from beginning to end.
I really loved this book and would definitely recommend it.

Kiss Me Before Flight by Thia Finn is a stunning second chance love story. This is my first read by this author, and it was a gripping, emotional and riveting story, with wonderful characters and a heartbreaking and honest storyline. This story is about violence, brutality at the hands of a monster, unexpected love and rediscovering oneself. Triumph reigns and dramatic scenes are plentiful. This story is about more than just romance. It is about new friendships, finding strength in the most unusual circumstances, finding the path to happiness and building destroyed self confidence. Callie’s faith in humanity is restored when she meets Conrad and the many people who offer endless support and encouragement. Kiss Me Before Flight was wonderfully written and perfectly executed. Often hard to read and deeply emotional, this remarkable tale delivers the message that love can heal even the deepest of wounds and happiness can be found when you aren’t even looking. 4 stars.

Wow. This book has me hooked from the introduction. I have never read a Trident Security book but after reading this book, I have to read the series. I felt like I was watching a movie reading this book, constantly wondering what’s next. Bodine’s character made my blood boil and my heart ached so badly for Callie. Definitely a great read!

Callie is in trouble if she stays with her abusive husband he will eventually kill her, but what is her option until her neighbour decides to her help escape but if she gets away what will she do?

Callie is lost in her world and if she does not get away the worst will happen to her and see wants to live, but the escape needs to be clean and permanent but who can she trust to help her. When a conversation comes up with her neighbour a plan is hatched and Callie feels she can finally get her life back.

Conard is used to being involve in dangerous situations but he is always the extraction to his team when they need to get somewhere or leave, so when Jane his sister in law asks for his help to plan and escape for her neighbour, the alpha and protector in him takes up the mantle to try and help, but as all good things what could go wrong?

This is the first book I have read by this author and what a start to my journey, the story is full pf twists and turns and who could not resist a handsome alpha lead. Although this is a spin off from “Trident Security” this does distract from the story, I felt that I could follow any references from that series within the story, to be honest it just made my TBR list increase.

The chemistry between these two characters is off the charts and the story is a page turner trying to get to the next thrilling twist. The characters were well developed and the secondary characters added to the story. I also loved the way the original author of the Trident Series added the who’s who so you could get an insight into the world with out having read the books which was brilliant. I can’t wait to read more books by this author and definitely the next instalment in this series.

Callie is living the horror of a physically, mentally and emotionally abusive marriage. Her husband of 20 years has treated her as no one should ever be treated. She lives in fear and pain. Beaten, humiliated, isolated. Her sons leave for school and she has had enough. She leaves with the help of her neighbor and a handsome pilot named Conrad.
Conrad wants live a simple life flying as much as possible. When he sees Callie and how desperate and broken she is he is pulled to her wanting to help her escape into a life free of fear. Where she can make her own choices for her life. He hopes some of those choices will involve him as he quickly starts to fall for the feisty woman that emerges once she’s free.
A story of abuse and it’s aftermath ending with a steamy romance. An emotional rollercoaster worth the read!

If you are looking for a suspenseful story with a little romance mixed in, look no further. Thia Finn has masterfully done that in this story. The more I read the book the more I needed to read what was coming next. I could not put the book down. Her descriptive writing paints a picture that would stay with me for a while. The characters are wonderful. They are fully developed and complex. Who knew that one can fall in love with a character like they are right there in the room with you. Callie is a sweet girl who is getting out of a horrible marriage. Her ex-husband is an abusive a-hole. CC Chapman is not sure if he is the right one to be with Callie. I highly recommend reading this book to see what happens between Callie and CC Chapman. Trust me is it worth the read.

I thoroughly enjoyed this romantic suspense novel which follows the story of CC Chapman, a pilot for Trident Security. Conrad works for a team who intervene in life or death situations and it’s his job to fly them in and out of danger. However when Jane, his sister in law asks him to help an abused women he feels more of a responsibility towards her than just flying her away from her husband who is likely to kill her. Callie is sure that her husband is going to kill her and her only chance to escape is with the help of her neighbours brother in law, Conrad. Conrad makes her feel like she can actually learn to live again and take a chance on living a real life, but can she also take a chance on Conrad. This is an enjoyable and engaging read where the main characters are both taking a second chance at love despite many obstacles. The storyline is full of suspense, action and plenty of romance. Conrad and Callie are both likeable and relatable characters and the chemistry between the couple does come across in the narrative. I liked how their relationship developed throughout the story, and it’s nice to have slightly more mature main characters falling in love in a novel.

Kiss Me Before Flight by Thia Finn is a brilliant story that really pulls you in. I loved reading about Callie and CC. I thought they were such interesting characters. Although I loved the romance around them I enjoyed so much more the depth that they both had. It felt like they were each their own character outside of the other and their connection just enhanced that.
The story was so well written. You are pulled straight into it and the book does not let go until the end. This is a highly enjoyable book and one I would definitely recommend.

Kiss Me Before Flight by Thia Finn was such a detailed romance that I couldn’t put it down. This romance was filled with suspense, drama, angst, chemistry, and so much more that I just continues to flip page after page until I had no more to flip. The main characters are wonderful, and her word building skills made her plot and overall story line easy to follow. This story was so beautifully woven that I was pulled in from the very beginning and I never wanted it to end, I will definitely be looking for more by Ms. Finn.

Callie is escaping from an abusive relationship with the help of her neighbor, Jane, and her brother-in-law, CC Chapman (a pilot with Trident Security). Given a chance at a second love, Callie and CC go through many challenges thanks to Callie’s soon-to-be ex husband. They overcome so much heartbreak for two mature people. Though with the help of CC’s friends and coworkers at Trident, they soon kick Brodie’s butt. Through this all, Callie and CC realize that they can talk and work things out and trust each other. This is an overwhelmingly emotional book. All the feels. Well written and the author even includes resources for domestic violence abuse at the back. Highly recommend. I just can’t say enough. This is a book you must read. I will be reading more of her work.

Kiss Me Before Flight by Thia Finn is a contemporary romance and second chance story. I just started reading the Trident Security series collection by Samantha A. Cole and when I realised that this story was connected, I couldn’t wait to get my hands on it. Coincidence? I think not. There is action and danger, abuse, and sorrow and so much more that will have you lost in the flow of this emotionally driven story. There are some hard hitting scenes in the book and if you can get past them, you will unwrap what becomes a beautiful tale.

Violence has been her world for so long it’s hard to remember life without it but she is determined to finally leave that life behind. Helping was one thing he had to do but it became so much more, and he wanted, no needed to be near her.

Kiss Me Before Flight is a Suspenseful Seduction World novel by Thia Finn. This is a wonderful second chance contemporary romance with mature characters, a captivating storyline, suspense, emotion, drama, angst, chemistry, tension, and even a touch of humour.
Thia Finn has taken a secondary character from Samantha A. Cole’s “Trident Security” series and spun him a superb story of his own. I have not read any of the “Trident Security” series- but Thia Finn has definitely sparked my curiosity enough to add them to my TBR pile.
Thia Finn always manages to weave an engrossing story that pulls me in and gets me fully invested in the characters and the outcome of their story. And here she not only created emotional story with some intense moments, but also managed to sprinkle in a little humour along the way, giving it some lighter scenes as well.
When Callie finally finds the courage to leave her abusive marriage- her neighbour, Jane, enlists the help of her brother-in-law, who happens to be the pilot for Trident Security. With Conrad’s help Callie is whisked away—- annnnd then— no spoilers here, but what happens next makes for a really great read.
Looking forward to seeing what Thia Finn does next!

Thank you, Thia Finn!

I enjoyed this suspenseful story with a twist of romance adding in. This is an author that I have enjoyed from the first book I picked up of hers. This is a story that pulled me in from the beginning. It is an engaging story that is not only fast paced but full of action as well. The characters bring the story to life on each page by the author’s use of details. I also enjoyed how connectable they are as well as strong. This is a well written story about Callie who is in need of help after she has escaped from her abusive husband. CC Chapman is not sure he is up for the challenge of Callie. What he did not expect was her to be so beautiful. What happens next I highly recommend reading this book to find out. You don’t want to miss the twists and turns they will take you on. This is a really great story that I had a hard time putting down. I highly suggest picking it up today.

Callie
He’s going to kill me. My life depends on a meticulous plan to escape my abusive husband, and I know I’ll only get one chance. When my kind neighbor involves her attractive brother-in-law, I begin to believe my dream might come true. I need to make it on my own once they whisk me away, but how? All I’ve ever known is how to be what he told me to be, a homemaker and mother. Do I take the chance and live a real life, or stay with my husband of twenty years and simply exist? Why is the choice so difficult?
CC, Conrad, Chapman
Intervene in messy situations of life or death, not me, but I work for a team who does. I take the easy part, fly them in and out of danger. When sister-in-law, Jane, begs me to help an abused woman escape from the iron fist that will eventually kill the woman, I have doubts I’m up for the challenge. Sure, I can fly her away but what then? I have responsibilities which don’t include helping a beautiful woman live the life she deserves.
