Claire Holloway is Winging it

Title: Claire Holloway is Winging it

My Review:

I had the honor of meeting Angela Ruth Strong at a reader event in November of 2024. At that time, this book was in progress, and Angela was telling me a little bit about it. I was excited about the uniqueness of the storyline. Claire Holloway Is Winging It did not disappoint.

At first, this book seems to have a love triangle, one of my personal dislikes. However, it does not. Claire is in a relationship with Wyatt when she and Nathan meet, but healthy boundaries are drawn on both sides.

I enjoyed this story. I loved hearing the crash pad stories and getting to know Claire's roommates. I love that Claire was exploring a new career after the loss of her first dream career.  It was fun to see her confidence grow and see her find her identity. I am also excited to see that there will be a second story, Claire's roommate and friend, Angel. I hope that we see more of Claire and some of their other roommates as well. 

★★★★/5

Synopsis (Goodreads):  

A romance in the skies from an award-winning author and flight attendant

After Claire Holloway's dream of becoming a ballerina plummets, she's left with her boyfriend as her only support . . . until she decides to become a flight attendant for the free travel. Based out of state, she moves into a crash pad with a gaggle of other flight attendants, and her fear of losing Wyatt seems to become a reality.

First Officer Nathan Stuart—a bit cynical since he and his fiancĂ©e broke up—meets a somewhat frazzled Claire on her very first day in the Seattle airport. When they end up on the same crew, he takes her under his wing, and they quickly bond.

When Claire's once-supportive boyfriend's attitude sours into resentment, she's left wondering whether her newfound joy is the right way to go. Pulled between two men and her new career, Claire must learn to listen for God's direction the same way her flight crew follows air traffic control.

In this hilarious rom-com, readers will lift off into the turbulent skies of romantic adventures as Claire navigates God's plan for her life.
