Fly with Me by Andie Burke

Book Review and Rating

Fly with Me by Andie Burke was the perfect blend of sweet and spicy, and I absolutely loved reading it. In it we meet Olive and Stella who cross paths on a flight when a passenger experiences a medical emergency. Olive is a nurse who steps up and saves his life, and Stella is the pilot of the plane. From there, a series of events keeps placing them in each other’s lives with flirty energy and missed chances at confessing their feelings.

This book had a much slower build than I am usually drawn to, in terms of the romantic relationship progressing, but it worked so well. I was invested in both character’s personal stories and the emotional arc they were on as individuals, and when they finally connect, the spice is so well done that I completely forgot there was a slow burn before then.

I’d recommend this to anyone who enjoys fake dating, slow burns, and moderate spice (explicit, but not frequent). This one really worked for me and I loved reading it.

My Rating: 5.0 / 5.0

Thank you to St. Martin’s Press / St. Martin’s Griffin and NetGalley for the complimentary and advanced copy of this book. My opinions in this book review are my own and authentic, as always.
