Review Wrap Up - Flying Solo by Jeanette Vaughan


Historical Fiction
Date Published: May 2012

Sometimes the choices we make in life have devastating consequences.
  
French Cajun Nora Broussard Greenwood was born with the wanderlust.   On a whim, she takes flying lessons.    For the first time in her life, she feels emancipated and free.  When she falls in love with her flying instructor, she asks for a divorce. This doesn’t jive with her ruthless and controlling, Catholic husband who kicks her to the curb without her children.  Desperate to get them back, she steals his plane. 

What’s it really like in New Orleans during Mardi Gras?  Find out in “sexy, sassy” FLYING SOLO as two divas tear up the town in this riveting romp of beignets, bourbon and bedlam.      “A book to inspire women,”  FLYING SOLO elicits admiration for a character who defies convention to overcomes domestic violence and gain independence.

From Author Ever Leigh 

A time warp back to the 60's in which Jeanette Vaughan gives us a fiction novel based on fact. The story itself about a woman who is taking her life into her own hands and going against the grain is a great one. Add to that the emotional turmoil she deals with upon falling for her Flying Instructor and deciding to leave her husband and we have a the makings of a ride you never saw coming. Great read!

From Cozie Corner - 

'Flying Solo' takes us to New Orleans and Tyler Texas in this novel, although fiction it's based upon true events. An inspirational love story where the characters are strong, believable and come alive on the pages. A real page turner that grips you and doesn't let go. Highly recommended for all readers.

I give "Flying Solo" a 5 star rating.
