        We first met Kate Evans in Touching the Clouds, when she flew to Alaska to pursue her dream of becoming a bush pilot. In this sequel, she is finally living her dream, flying medical supplies to those living in the Alaskan wilderness and working closely with Dr. Paul Anderson. Kate is content with her life and the growing feelings she has for Paul. Then a new boss, with an antipathy toward women, takes over, and Kate must prove herself again. VERDICT Readers who enjoy a clean romance with a bit of adventure thrown in will appreciate this one, though they should start with Touching the Clouds for the character development. Suggest this to readers looking for CF with strong female protagonists.

        Plucky pilot Kate Evans soars to new heights in the second installment (after Touching the Clouds, 2010) in Leon's 1930s Alaskan Skies series. Kate's adventuring spirit leads her deeper into the territory's vastness when she teams up with Paul, her beau and the new bush doctor, to reach the people of rural Alaska. As she flies across the rugged terrain, she deepens friendships but also faces hardships, and her faith is tested when accidents occur in the wilderness. She struggles with the consequences of her dangerous career, realizing that she must choose either to trust God and pursue her dreams or give up her love of flying to live a safer life. As her desires waver between being a free-to-go pilot and becoming a wife and mother, and as she watches her friends have children and settle into domesticity, she wonders what sort of man would want to marry a pilot. An exciting and heartfelt inspirational story.(Reprinted with permission of Booklist, copyright 2011, American Library Association.)
