YOU'D BETTER GET MOVING, BIG GUY...
Prince Jefri of Bahania had just been bested...by a woman! And not just any female, but Billie Van Horn, his gorgeous, take-no-prisoners flight instructor who was more than a match for this ultramasculine male.
Well, she might be an ace in the air, but when it came to romance Billie was determined to keep both feet on the ground. So why

Billie Van Horn is usually treated as one of the guys because 1) she's a kick-ass fighter pilot/instructor and 2) she works with her overprotective dad and brothers. If a man isn't turned off by the first, he tends to get scared off by the second. Prince Jefri of Bahania meets Billie during his work establishing a joint air force with El Bahar and the City of Thieves. His royal pride is stung by repeated defeats at the hands of the beautiful Billie, but he is also intrigued and attracted.

Oh. I like this. I probably like this more than the others. Jefri was just like the other princes. Arrogant at first and softening in the end. But Jefri easily softened. Or he wasn't really that arrogant compared to the others. There wasn't much "I am Prince *insert prince name here* of *insert country name here*". He also didn't take long to admit his feelings for Billie. Although the circumstances delayed it.

We never heard much about Jefri in the other books, only passing scenes where he’s called the funny and carefree guy of the family. I believe people say this because he’s the youngest and has no chance of assuming the crown, but his also the expert of flaying in the family. He’s very passionate about planes and the desert, which made him the perfect person to be responsible for the new Air Force that has been the talk for the last few books.

Goodreads officially sucks at saving my reviews today. So once again..
This novel was good because we are finally given a lead heroine with the personality and spunk to match. It's eventually why the hero falls in love with her but he originally pursues her simply because of arrogance and pride.

I have been reading Christian fiction for a while, but needed a book for my Winter Challenge. This book was a bit much, but I liked the "realness" of the characters.

I found the story is not complicated enough, but it's nice for light-reading though. =)
I didn't think Billie was as devoted to her job as most women would have been.
