Flyboys and Flygirls: Air Force Heroines and Heroes of Romance
Happy Veteran's Day Weekend here in the States!
Continuing my salute to those military heroes and heroines of Romanceland as well as their real life counterparts, I gather those fine men and women of the Air Force that are romantic leads.
This was actually the hardest list to put together. I have only found 10 books by different authors that feature the Air Force and I have only read four of them myself.
1. No Words Alone by Autumn Dawn, a great Science Fiction Romance
2. MacKenzie's Legacy by Linda Howard, part of the wonderful MacKenzie Series
3. Ryder's Wife by Sharon Sala, a lovely category romance.
4. Once a Pirate by Susan Grant, a 5 star time travel romance
Some other good reads I found to add to the list..
1. Catherine Mann's Renegade comes from a well loved series featuring Air Force heroes and heroines.
2. Kaylea Cross's Deadly Intent
3. Jaxine Daniel's A Soft Place to Fall
4. Dee Henderson's True Valor
5. Gina Wilkin's A Perfect Strange
6. Linda Hudson-Smith's Top-Secret Rendezvous
