Can first impressions ever be overcome? Manda Partridge has spent her life proving she is more than the brainless damsel in distress who needs a man to protect her. While her partners in Top Flight give her the respect she desires, that isn't always the case with her trainees. When Anders Jorgensson accidentally tackles a woman while trying to catch a pass, she is more than a little irritated with him. It wouldn't be a big deal, but it turns out she is his new Top Flight instructor. As they spend more time together, things go from bad to worse. Just when their relationship reaches a boiling point, they get stranded in a foreign country with only each other to rely on. But as their debates deepen, they discover the person behind the cutting words. And soon, it's not just their lives on the line, but their hearts.
