From the author of the Capital Confessions Novels comes the first in the steamy Wild Aces Romance series.
U.S. Air Force fighter pilot Noah Miller—call sign Burn—loves nothing more than flying hard and fast. When he meets a gorgeous and sassy woman while partying in Las Vegas, he immediately locks on to her.
Jordan Callahan owns a thriving clothing boutique, but her love life is far less successful. Her luck changes when six feet, two inches of sexy swagger asks her to dance and turns her world upside down.
One scorching weekend becomes an undeniable chemistry that they can’t leave in Vegas. But the long distance relationship and their different lives threaten to ground their romance. And when the dangers of Noah’s job become all too real, Jordan learns being with a fighter pilot means risking it all for a shot at love…
Fly With Me is the first book in the new adult contemporary romance series, called Wild Aces, by Chanel Cleeton. Fly With Me was my first experience with a Chanel Cleeton book, and I was super excited to read it for many reasons. Chanel is a fellow law school survivor, I have a few of her books on my TBR because they all sound so good, and I was really in the mood for a swoony romance, and I have heard she is the go to author for that. So I grabbed Fly With Me and dug right in. Flash forward to three hours later and I am so engrossed in Noah and Jordan’s story. I finished this book and had no idea how much time had passed. I went into my own little world and didn’t resurface until I had no more pages to turn. (and if I didn’t have a pesky job getting in the way, I would have immediately grabbed book 2!) Fly with Me was such a satisfying read. It was super emotionally charged. That is not to say they were always happy emotions, but it was a very emotional read for me. I really liked it!
Noah and Jordan met in Las Vegas, and that right there should tell you something about the start of their relationship. It was very carefree and fun at the beginning. I really loved meeting the two of them in Vegas because you could tell how well they complimented each other. But once the fun weekend was over, they each went back to their own hometowns and lives, and that is when the story got real. And really interesting. Because anyone who has been in a serious long distance relationship can relate to their story and some of the struggles they go through. And their journey was even more complicated because they were long distance pretty much from the start, which is hard because they don’t know each other all that well. Not to mention the nature of Noah’s job makes the whole relationship harder. But it all added to the richness of their story. I loved every aspect of this story. Chanel Cleeton did a fantastic job. I can’t wait to read the next book.
Bottom Line: If you like multi-faceted romances that are sexy, and a great mix of lightheartedness and real life struggles the Wild Aces series is one for you. I loved Chanel Cleeton’s writing and her characters. This book was so highly charged with emotion. Both in the romance department, which was hot, and in the plotline. I devoured this book and I want more. (And I can’t wait for Easy’s story!)

I really enjoyed this series. Easy’s story was my fave. Totally agree with your assessment. Great review!
Now this sounds like a book I want to read. I love emotionally charged stories and great characters. Long distance relationships are difficult as I know from first hand.
I can’t believe I hadn’t heard of this one! I’m definitely reading this one ASAP! It sounds like a great book 🙂
