From Goodreads

*** Winner 2019 New Apple Award for Excellence in Independent Publishing***

In a crippled airplane thousands of miles from home, Tris must prove she can lead...

Propelled by grief and natural ambition, pilot Tris Miles is not content with her job as a First Officer for tiny Clear Sky Airlines. She wants to be a Captain--the only way she knows to prove her worth as a pilot and atone for a deadly mistake.

To further her career, Tris accepts a prestigious job with Tetrix, Inc. But her dream of becoming pilot-in-command twists into a nightmare. As the company's first woman pilot, she encounters resistance, marginalization, and harassment on a daily basis. Fortunately, Tris has one thing her co-workers can't deny--skill.

In the skies over Europe, Tris, her passengers, and crew are in real danger. With their lives on the line, can Tris earn the respect she's been craving? And if this is the end, can she find the strength to forgive herself? 

My thoughts

My thanks to The Book Club on Facebook reviewer group for a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.

I gave this a 4 stars or 8/10.  I found this a well written story and it engaged my interest from the first few pages. This is the first in a series by the Author that feature Tris Miles, who yearns to be a pilot and Captain of the planes that she flies in.

As Tris faces harassment and sexual bigotry on a daily basis, due to being a female trying to make it in a male dominated profession. Can Tris overcome all that she faces from the men around her? They will try their best to make sure that women don't succeed in their world.

To find out how Tris deals with all that is thrown at her, you need to grab a copy for yourself and let the story take you on a journey with Tris as she tries to attain what she knows that she can. To become a pilot and Captain of the plane.

I look forward to reading Angel Flight the next in the series, to find out where we travel with this determined female.
