My Source: I received a copy from ebooks for review in exchange for an honest review

Description: When nineteen-year-old introvert Sarah boards a plane to fly home after an overseas holiday, the last thing she expects is Aiden, the guy sitting next to her who's never flown anywhere before and refuses to shut up. Hours of random conversation later, they part ways. Sarah can't stop thinking about Aiden, though, and wondering if she made a terrible mistake letting him go.

Should she abandon her safe, predictable life and go in search of him, or would she be chasing a happily ever after that could never exist in real life?

My Review: Everyone has their challenges in life and I love the way this story shows that you can't look at someone and think his/her life is perfect.

Sarah is painfully introverted and the reader really comes to understand how difficult this shyness is. She is talented, yet she doubts her abilities, and I really enjoyed watching her become comfortable with herself. Throughout the story, Sarah really learns more about herself, what she wants out of life, and she really gains confidence, thanks in part to Aiden.

I loved Aiden! He is so sweet, funny, and confident, yet he struggles with his own fears. He has a way of drawing Sarah out of her shell and forcing her to converse. He also has a way of causing Sarah and those around him to see the big picture in life. 

I really enjoyed the setting--it's so different from anything I've ever read before and really drew me in. I loved the ups and downs--the whole journey was great fun! The friendships and relationships were enjoyable, yet sometimes complicated. Nothing was perfect, but it wasn't depressing. It was fun and entertaining, with a dose of reality. It's so refreshing to find a clean New Adult story. I'm definitely looking forward to more by this author!

Content: a few mild expletives; no violence; mild romance--kissing. Clean!
