Too Good To Be True
The theme of this book is love at first sight and whether it can last the pace. I think almost everyone has met someone that they fall madly in love with almost as soon as they see them but very few of them get married straight away, which is what happens to the lead characters Carey and Ben.
They meet on a flight to New York and then head to Las Vegas to tie the knot. But what seems like a great idea in the heat of the moment doesn’t necessarily work out so well when they get home. While I was writing this I met a number of people who’d either got married very quickly (though none as quickly as Carey and Ben) and the families of people who’d married very quickly.
Interestingly, the families felt as though they’d been totally left out of things and although they were all prepared to give the marriages a chance, I could tell that they weren’t rushing to embrace the new wife or husband into the fold!
Carey is an air-traffic controller, a job which I’ve always thought must be really interesting. It is, and scary with it! I was shown around Dublin and Shannon by the wonderfully helpful PRO of the Irish Aviation Authority, Lilian Cassin who gave me the low-down on the business.
I hope you manage to get a flavour of what goes on while your plane is in the air – or while it’s sitting on the runway waiting for permission to take off.
