Sienna is the lead character in this story. She is portrayed as self-conscious and in my opinion a bit ditsy as well. The decisions she makes are not always good ones, but this is what attracted me to her character. Often times we beat up on books about the main character being flawed. We feel the book could have been written better if the female would have been more likable. What we seem to forget is that in real life, we are all flawed. I for one like it when the characters in women's fiction are given a voice even if they aren't perfect. Life isn't perfect, why should all novels play pretend?The places that Sienna and her best friend Kendi got to travel to in this book were so beautifully written, it practically transports you to them. The vivid details, the well written descriptions of the shops, hotel rooms etc was a bonus to the reader. I just loved the fun that these two had in the exotic ports they would fly to. What a great read to escape the mundane and tedious life we lead!Sienna and Kendi were tired of their jobs as VIP stewardess's for the Air Force. They were both looking for something more. Sienna was looking for an escape that was immediate and far away. She had just caught her fiance cheating on her. She was ready for something new and fast too. When they are both given the chance to become flight attendants to a prince from Saudi Arabia, they jump at the chance. What could be better? The money was more than they see in a year. The tips were enough to live the high life. They were ready or so they thought? You know that old saying "if it looks to good to be true, it usually is"? Well, Sienna and Kendi would soon find out.A fun and flirty read to take to the beach or to lose yourself in while taking a bath. Sweet. Simple. Good.
