I’m not normally an enemies to lovers person (simply because they normally act like children in this trope) but this was more I disliked you at first but now friends with benefits kind of thing. Um, Hi I’m Amelia and why have I never met a handsome Scotsman on a flight? I was actually in an airport when I read this book (which was quite ironic) and I can report, I did not fall in love with another human but I did fall in love with this book. Which is fine, because they hate each other right? When his stay in Boston becomes permanent, Ava and Caleb must decide whether or not to do something with their newly found feelings. And that’s all it was–until Caleb shows up in Boston…stranded and they agree to “enjoy” each other while he’s in the States. Over the course of their journey home, their antics somehow land them in bed for the steamiest of layovers. ![]() Review: Ava Breevort is having a bad day, on the heels of burying her estranged childhood friend, her flight home to Boston is delayed…because of a volcano and the arrogant Scotsman, Caleb Scott, who stole her first class seat isn’t helping matters.
