Melissa Black is a woman of few words and even fewer friends. Not that she’s complaining. Considering all she’s accomplished, all work and no play are words to live by. Shooting for the moon led her land among the stars as an astrophysicist. On top of that, she breaks new altitudes on the Air Force. And she isn’t even 30. From sleepless study habits to army crawls on dirt roads, she’s soared above and beyond time and again. So, why the hell should she care when the man who took her virginity twelve years ago flies back in her life?

The Blacks are all Kingsley Hastings has. They weren’t just neighbors. They were the family he’d never had, but always wanted. He’d found a real friend in Lionel and General Black had pledged a paternal promise. But it was Melissa who’d given him his real taste of pleasure all those years ago. Too bad that taste came too little, too late. Searching for a life beyond the base, he was set to leave town the next day. He should’ve known better. Now, his father’s funeral brings him back to the barracks—and he’s determined to make things right.

But the alluring aviatress clouds his judgment.

blurb)

Too many are left behind, abandoned, ignored or believed to have everything they need: a roof 

over their heads, clothes on their backs and full stomachs. Only, they forget that we need more, 

people need more: they need to belong, to feel appreciated and especially, and they need to 

feel love. Kingsley Hastings felt it once, only to have it ripped from his hands shortly afterwards. 

Melissa is a woman on a mission, refusing to let her past, her desire for one man and the one 

night that has marked her so profoundly that sleepless nights studying, soaring sky high over 

and over are preferable than friends and ‘crying over spilled milk’. This is the first time I’ve read 

a novel written by Fallen Kittie and I must admit, I’m intrigued; it was the type of novel that 

scratched an itch, but so much so that you had to keep coming back to soothe it, otherwise, it 

kept coming back, and I’m saying that in a good way. It was both dark and seductive, and 

romantic and hopeful; you can’t help but root for the happily every after and that these two 

characters can at the very least hash out what happened all those years ago. I can’t wait to see 

the next instalment in this series and find out more about the Black family.
