A Very Well Researched Story

I love Lise's books. You are not disappointed because you know that the subject is going to be well researched.

Aver had just become a captain and was in control of not only her own aircraft but also Male cabin crew. She was content until she met Mia her Chief Pursur. Mia English and Aver from Jordon
both from different cultures but they found that they had a lot in common.

Not only do you get a main story about girl meet girl relationship there is also nice back stories running underneath. Plus I loved the narrator and could listen to her all day.

wow

This is the kind of book that sucks you in from the beginning. A superb storyline, the characters have depth, the pacing is spot on and the chemistry and the passion are top notch. I loved the flirtatious banter and how their relationship developed. Also the emotions felt very real. Yes, this author knows how to write and this is definitely my new favorite book by Lise Gold. This book will be taking you on a bumpy emotional journey with Ava and Mia.

Another great story (with wonderful characters)

I love Lise Gold’s characters. They’re good and selfless women who do their best to make life beautiful and easier for the people they love. They’re strong (much stronger than they think) and flawed, sweet and determined.

Mia Donoghue loves her job as a senior purser. Travelling, discovering new places or enjoying favourite ones helps her cope with the guilt she’s been carrying for fifteen years, guilt that has kept her away from her family. On one of her flights, she meets Ava Alfarsi, who has recently been promoted to captain. Mia and Ava soon find out that they share more than an immediate and undeniable attraction.

When they first meet, Ava seems to be at her better place in her life, yet she has huge control issues. They both make the other stronger, even though Mia is not ready to admit it at first.

One of the things I’ve discovered these past months, with Lise Gold’s books in particular, is how much I love simple stories that tackle sensitive issues without any violence. Don’t get me wrong, I love complicated stories, I love getting lost in labyrinthine tales. But I also love straightforward simplicity. Day to day life, when cleverly told, can be fascinating.
Lise Gold has a gift for creating lovely characters, Mia and Ava are no exceptions. Another Gold trademark is the travelling, and this book takes the readers to Dubai, New York, Kuala Lumpur… Every time I read a book by Lise Gold, I want to buy a plane ticket. Every single time.

Despite the delicate topic (addiction and the every day struggle that is sobriety), Fireflies is a pretty joyful novel, with plenty of banter and steamy scenes. And loads and loads of feelings. Once again, it’s everything I love. And the narration, by Stevie Zimmerman, is excellent.
