English Summary/英文概要: Marie Bostwick delivers a captivating novel of soul mates discovering each other as the country faces its greatest challenge... Morgan Glennon’s destiny points straight up into Oklahoma’s clear, blue sky. It’s been that way since he was four years old, imagining the famous flier father he’s never met. Morgan leaves college to enlist as a Navy pilot, and his whole world suddenly changes when America goes to war. Watching his friends fall in battle, robs Morgan of the joy he always felt in the air. It will take one very unusual woman to help him get it back... Georgia Jean Carter learned early never to rely on a man for anything but trouble. Airplanes are different: they take a girl places most boyfriends can’t. Remarkably, the war makes it possible for Georgia to do her part as a pilot. Flying with the WASPs brings a special sense of belonging--yet there’s something missing that Georgia doesn’t recognize until a brief encounter sets her dreaming about a young flyboy she barely knows...
Chinese Summary/中文概要: 本書堪稱是前作的續集或前傳,但也可獨立閱讀。摩根的父親是罹難的飛行員,他後來因為戰爭也成了飛行員,不料最好的摯友也死於空戰,讓他心灰意冷。Georgia Jean Carter則是一個從來不相信男人、熱愛飛行的女孩,在她心裡,飛機不僅比男孩子可靠得多,而且還可以帶她去任何想去的地方。加入女性飛行員軍隊的Georgia Jean Carter與摩根,註定有一場改變彼此命運的相遇,雙雙克服兩人心裡南轅北轍的不安全感。(TT)
