Review: Beauty in Flight (Beauty in Flight #1) by Robin Patchen

About the Book

Her beauty once opened doors, but the felony conviction now slams them shut.

Harper Cloud used to love the gilded glamour of Las Vegas, but on the far side of prison, she sees the cracks in the veneer. These days, she keeps her head down and focuses on the elderly patients in her care. Even her new wealthy east-coast boyfriend, Derrick, can't entice her away. She's trusted men before, and look where that got her.

She tries to brush off the feeling that she's being watched. She won't allow a baseless paranoia to derail her life. But when she's followed home one night, her pursuer gets within a hair's breadth of grabbing her. She knows it's time to get away from Las Vegas.

Maybe Derrick can be trusted. Maybe his job offer—to care for his aging grandfather in Maryland—will be the second chance she needs.

But Derrick has secrets of his own, secrets that could take him down--and take Harper with him.

Can there be a second chance for someone like her?

My Thoughts

Beauty in Flight was a quick and suspenseful read. There was a heavy sense of foreboding oozing from the pages that had me full of anticipation and anxiety. I was suspicious of everything and everyone.

This was the first book I've read by this author and I really enjoyed it. The writing was superb. I was pulled right into the story and was feeling all the emotions of the characters as if I was right there with them.

This is the first book in a three part series and because of that, when I reached the end, it felt like it had just got started. And that ending! Wow! I want to talk about it, but don't want to spoil anything. Just be warned, massive cliffhanger alert! As soon as I finished, I made my way to Amazon and purchased the second one.
