The Stopover (The Miles High Club #1) – T.L. Swan

The Stopover by T.L. Swan
Published September 26, 2019

I was upgraded to first class on a flight from London to New York.

The food, champagne, and service were impeccable.

The blue-eyed man sitting next to me, even better.

He was suave and intelligent.

We talked and laughed, and something clicked.

Fate took over and the plane was grounded, and we had an unexpected stopover for the night.

With no plans, we made our own.

We danced and laughed our way around Boston and had a night of crazy passion that no woman would ever forget.

That was twelve months ago, and I haven’t heard from him—until today.

I started a new job and met the CEO. You can imagine my surprise to see those naughty blue eyes dance with delight when he saw me across the mahogany desk.

But I’m not that carefree girl anymore. My life has changed, I have responsibilities.

I just got an email.

He wants to see me in his office for a private meeting at 8:00 a.m.

Naughty blue eyes have no place in the workplace.

What kind of private meeting does he have in mind?


So, let’s be honest, if you’ve seen my goodreads shelf, you’ll notice I’ve been reading a lot of romance and smutty stuff. Not sure why or how I got looped into this genre, but I did, and I’m not complaining. I’m not complaining because I stumbled upon many books I enjoyed, and even this one. I seriously enjoyed this book. I was reading so many enemy to lovers books and such, and there were so many books that just went by so quickly that I never fully felt satisfied with the book. With this book clocking in at just over 500 pages it took me a little longer to get through and I was so happy that this book had a slight slow burn and ups and downs that it did.

This story follows Emily who is trying to get home from a wedding in London, is waiting to check in her bags and some guy just flips out on her. So she gets upgraded to first class where she meets a guy who is super smooth, and there’s a crazy spark between the two of them. With inclement weather on the way to New York, the plane touches down in Boston where they spend the night together. A year later Emily gets the job of her dreams at Miles media company and as she goes to meet the CEO, she’s face to face with the man from the stopover.

So that’s just the beginning of all of this. And oh my god does this story turn into a hell of a roller coaster. I couldn’t stop reading, even to the point where my husband was like “uhhh, are you going to sleep anytime soon?” There’s so much between Emily and Jameson Miles, and I couldn’t get enough of it. The way they grow together, clash, burn and even blossom together it’s a great and it doesn’t happen in a quick 300 pages like most of these books do.

Things pick up when Emily finds out someone is selling stories to a rival media company, and brings things up to Jameson and his brother Tristan who run the New York office. They set her up to feed in fake stories to figure out who is selling stories. It really has such a great plot outside of the romance aspect of this which is why I enjoyed it so much. I don’t think I would have if it did. And Emily is also a strong female character rivaling Jameson’s alpha male personality.

I honestly couldn’t recommend this book enough to people who enjoy the romance/smut genre.

4/5 Stars
