Eighteen-year-old Keri Hart's life was turned upside down when her Southern high society mother insisted, "Now Sugah, I think it would be best if you ended it with Ryan Mitchell..." only days before his leaving Atlanta to attend the United States Naval Academy.Fast-forward nine years and Keri is a Miami-based flight attendant; Ryan, a Navy fighter pilot based near San Diego, and soon to be airline pilot. In hopes of reviving a love once lost, Ryan writes to Keri. Before the letter is posted, Rex Dean, Ryan's laidback, self-absorbed roommate, intercepts and alters the letter-the beginning of a deviously concocted plan that blindsides the hometown hopefuls, thrusting them into rebound relationships. With Ryan's marriage a train wreck and Keri engaged-her wedding only weeks away-fate arranges a coincidental New York layover. A morning stroll through Central Park awakens their undeniable love for each other, forcing them to question everything they thought they knew. Masterfully balanced with suspense, humor, and emotional intensity, Flight to Paradise takes readers on a journey that concludes with the unexpected. With a multitude of twists and turns, the tale unfolds a story of hope, forgiveness, and the enduring message that "love given" is the key to unlocking the desires of the heart-Paradise.
