Part of Cocky Bastard Series by Penelope Ward
First published 2016
Carter is already gone by the time she boards her flight. That's what she thinks. Then she sees him in the cockpit doorway. The same man from the airport lounge, the one she'd written off as a beautiful dead end, is now flying her plane. The woman at the center of Penelope Ward's Playboy Pilot is facing a real choice back home: take a life-changing sum of money or follow something harder to name. She books an impulsive trip to clear her head. Carter scrambles everything instead. He hands her tickets. She follows him to one exotic destination after another. The pull between them is immediate and physical and neither of them pretends otherwise. But Carter moves constantly, leaves constantly, and a trail of flight attendant ex-girlfriends follows his reputation around the globe. She collects rumors and tries to sort them from the truth. She knows she is going to get hurt. She knows he is not the kind of man who stays. She wants to be the one who finally changes that. Ward builds the tension between those two facts, the wanting and the knowing, until an ending arrives that she never saw coming.
