A Wing And A Prayer by Julie Lessman
Oh Gabe! You make life so hard for yourself! But you have such a generous heart and a desire to help those underdogs!
Gabriella Dawn O'Conner, the adopted daughter of Patrick and Marcy O'Conner is now all grown up. If you thought she was a spitfire when she was a young orphan running around the streets of Boston, you should see her now! Gabe is an accomplished pilot that has joined the WASP(Women Airforce Service Pilots) program. In all of her young life there is only one man that Gabe has ever trusted, and that is her father Patrick. He's the only one that has ever been able to clip Gabe's wings. Until she runs into her PT Alex Kincaid that is! Sparks fly between them from the very beginning. Not just sparks of rebellion on Gabe's part, but also sparks of attraction!
Once again, Oh Gabe! Her antics made me laugh at times, and cringe with worry for her soul at other times! She's full of heart, yet she makes such poor choices in her rebellion and desire to not let any man rule over her. As always with a Julie Lessman novel there are spiritual lessons to be learned by the main characters. And boy does Gabe learn hers! Gabe's love-starved heart is finally brought to the only person that can ever fill that void...the God of love and peace for broken souls.
A WING AND A PRAYER was such a fun yet gut-wrenching read! For those of us that have enjoyed Julie Lessman's Daughters of Boston series and Winds of Change series here is the book that we've been waiting for! Gabe's story will make you laugh, make you cry and leave you with warm feelings and a happy and satisfied smile at the end. Oh, and before I end, let me just say that ALEX will leave all the single ladies with a new book boyfriend!
