3.75 star review by Karen, posted at ScuttlebuttReviewsWhen I read the blurb for Secrets in the Air, I thought it was a little cheesy, and as I read the book I continued to think this, not a bad way though. Secrets reminds me of those 1980’s TV series like Dallas and Dynasty, with all the shenanigans that took place. I loved those series, and I really enjoyed this book.For a 200 page book, there is a great deal going on, so that it’s a pretty nonstop, full on read.Rhett takes over his grandfather Don’s airline. Though Rhett is young, only 30, he has been flying more than half his life. Don also carried out some more ‘sensitive’ work which Rhett also gets involved in.Rhett is married to Kaden, a nurse and they have a committed and solid relationship, which is nicely demonstrated. Rhett’s relationship with his parents, however, is strained. He doesn’t talk to his father, and pretty soon his relationship with his mother deteriorates, leading to some very interesting twists and turns.All this occurred in the first 100 pages! Given the number of events in the book, some of the details are a somewhat glossed over, and some of the supporting characters are a little one dimensional. I also found the references to Rhett and Kaden being married and husbands a little overdone.On the whole, Secrets in the Air is great fun, and perfect for the summer holidays.
