Turbulent Intrigue by Melody Anne

The final novel in bestselling author Melody Anne’s Billionaire Aviators series finds Ace Armstrong back home after years away in the CIA. Faced with the stipulation in his father’s will to find a wife or lose his inheritance, the “black sheep” of the family takes to the skies like his aviator brothers. Soon Ace encounters temptation in the form of the sexy and confident Dakota Forbes, a female pilot who just so happens to be his new sister-in-law’s best friend… and should be off-limits. But Dakota is used to getting what she wants—and she makes it clear she wants Ace.

Ace’s previous line of work is not so easily left behind, and soon someone from his past threatens both him and all he holds dear. As Ace’s relationship with Dakota heats up, he’ll be forced to choose whether to walk away in order to keep her safe or risk it all on the breathless high of passion.

Ace and Dakota are an explosive couple.

Dakota is a strong, knows-what-she-wants type of woman and, despite her bravado and spunk, she does have some insecurities that you only catch glimpses of. Her best friend, Chloe, is marrying a hunk of a guy and Dakota is now part of the family. The one brother that she hasn't met yet, Ace, is mysterious and elusive. But, putting him aside, Dakota knows that her days as a cheerleader are numbered and she wants to follow in her brothers' footsteps – she wants to become a pilot. When she signs up for lessons, she gets much more than she bargained for.

Ace has lived the past several years of his life as someone else. In order to protect his family from his career, he pushed them away. Being an operative has its drawbacks, but he loves what he does and he is very good at it. When his case completes, he is injured and reeling. He finds himself once again surrounded by his family, which is both comforting and slightly uncomfortable.

When Ace sees Dakota, he's instantly intrigued. She is confident, doesn't take his lip, and knows what she wants. Dakota is just as taken with Ace's charm and good looks. They follow a bumpy road to romance and there is a lot of action. This was fast paced, fun, and had some great development.

I hope we get to see more of this family.


Ruthie – ☆☆☆☆
This is the fourth book in the series and links to a previous series of Ms. Anne's too. So, anyone who has read one of these will know... if Sherman is around, then expect some serious fun as a member of his family is enticed into love! It was an inspired idea, and there are clear hints that more young men are about to benefit from his interference in the future!

There have been hints about Ace and his lifestyle in previous books, so it was fascinating to find out just what he had been doing and why. Inevitably it is a worthy reason, and given the nature of his brothers, his tension is unexpected, but they are supportive. He doesn't get it to start with, but by the end has understood that his family do nothing but support him, and is finally ready to embrace that.

Dakota is a really fun character, and thanks to her close friendship with Nick's Chloe, we know of her calm and optimistic outlook. She is undoubtedly just what Ace needs, but he is rightfully fearful of what he brings with him from his past. Her secret shocks him, but thankfully he forgives her approach and they move forward together, swept along with bigger emotions than they ever expected.

I loved the flying lessons and the sexual tension which affects them both. The drama was well done, giving credence to Ace's fears, and yet proving to him how his brothers still want to be there for him.

This whole series has been both fun and intense. Thank you, Ms. Anne.
