Description

A sparkling and steamy opposites-attract romance, Fly with Me by Andie Burke is filled with sharp banter and that sweet, swooping feeling of finding “the one” when and where you least expect it.

A one-way ticket to love or a bumpy ride ahead?

Flying-phobic ER nurse Olive Murphy is still gripping the armrest from her first-ever take-off when the pilot announces an in-flight medical emergency. Olive leaps into action and saves a life, but ends up getting stuck in the airport hours away from the marathon she's running in honor of her brother. Luckily for her, Stella Soriano, the stunning type A copilot, offers to give her a ride.

After the two spend a magical day together, Stella makes a surprising request: Will Olive be her fake girlfriend?

A video of Olive saving a life has gone viral and started generating big sales for Stella's airline. Stella sees their union as the perfect opportunity to get to the boys' club executives at her company who keep overlooking her for a long-deserved promotion. Realizing this arrangement could help her too, Olive dives into memorizing Stella’s comically comprehensive three-ring-binder guide to fake dating. As the two grow closer, what’s supposed to be a ruse feels more and more real. Could this be the romantic ride of their lives, or an epic crash and burn?

A sparkling and steamy opposites-attract romance, Fly with Me by Andie Burke is filled with sharp banter and that sweet, swooping feeling of finding “the one” when and where you least expect it.

I loved Fly With Me! First time author Andie Burke delivers with a charming, sweet story filled with real life anxieties and fears. Olives fear of flying was intimately relatable as was Stellas drive to prove herself in her field. I laughed, I cried and I wrote down quotes. Grab yourself some Swedish Fish on Sept. 5th, and prepare yourself for Andie Burkes takeoff.

I was so excited to start reading this book, I started it the second I was able to download it from NetGalley. This was a super sweet romance with a lot of depth. I really loved both Olive and Stella and I felt that both these characters and their relationship had such strong development throughout the story. The fake dating trope slowly becoming one of my favorites and I thought it was done so well in this book! Also the fact that Olive hates flying and Stella is a pilot felt like the perfect opposites attract story line. The slow burn was perfect for these two characters. The banter was also so fun to read and the pop culture references were fantastic!

Olive's internal monologue was interesting to read about and often felt relatable as she worked through her anxieties. I really loved how anxiety was portrayed in this book, with both characters working through some of their struggles. I loved how both Olive and Stella coped in different ways and how it showed that no two people react to anxiety in the same way and how different coping mechanisms work. I loved that Olive had a support system in her coworkers and friends and how Stella was close to her father. As the book went on, I also loved that Olive and Stella started to trust and be there for each other and I felt that was one of the strongest aspects of their relationship. Overall, I really enjoyed reading Olive and Stella's story and I found myself rooting for them throughout!

If you're looking for a sweet and charming romcom, I would highly recommend this book! It's a great debut and I literally cannot wait to read what Andie Burke writes next!! This book comes out on September 5th, so definitely get your preorders in!

A well developed story line with numerous plot layers that came together to create an overall extremely endearing storyline. It also highlights the challenging dynamics of women working in male dominated industries and the severe burnout experienced by healthcare workers. I was rooting for this opposites attract couple the whole story!

Sincere thanks to NetGalley and St Martins Press for an advanced reader copy in exchange for an honest review.

This book was an amazing debut. A hilarious, queer, fake dating love story The characters are perfectly loveable. I appreciate that the two MCs have such well fleshed-out backstories that give them depth. They aren't just people in a (sometimes fake) relationship. They exist outside of it and have their own stories. I can't wait to see what else Andie Burke has in store for us!

Many thanks to Netgalley and St. Martin's Press for a copy of this novel. ARC provided in exchange for an honest review.

WOW! This debut was incredible. A sweet rom-com that took me on a rollercoaster of emotions.

The characters are relatable and well-developed, while still leaving room for growth as the story progresses. With entertaining side-characters and relatable references, this book is sure to warm the hearts of all those that pick it up! As soon as I began this book I couldn’t put it down, between the banter and slow-burn steamy scenes this isn’t one you want to miss.

Thank you to the publisher and NetGalley for providing me with an ARC of this book in exchange for my honest review.
