THIS QUOTE IS PERFECT FOR RORY! HERE IS MY REVIEW:


                              Retrograde  (Flight HA1710 #1) by: Rj Scott
                                                                reviewed by: Becky



Co-Pilot Lachlan Donaghue wakes up in hospital, a survivor of the crash of Flight HA1710, with memory loss and the suspicion that he could be at fault for the tragic accident. When everything becomes too much he goes home to hide, back to the small Scottish town he grew up in and to his family home.

Rory Kendrick watches the news, sees every hour of the disaster unfold but never thinks that Lachlan was in the middle of it all. Or that his friend will be forced to come back home to hide and to heal. What Lachlan needs is a friend, not a lover, but sometimes the lines are just too blurred to make any sense.





First of all let me say, I love this cover and the whole concept of this series, different stories about people on the same flight that crashed, brilliant! This is the perfect book 1 also, the story of the co-pilot! 

Lachlan is rescued from the wreckage of his crashed plane with no memory of how the accident happened, was it his or his pilot's fault? How could this have happened? All Lachlan can think about is that he needs Rory, the source of his strength and the love of his life, and also the man he walked away from months before.

Rory sees the news of the crash and no one will tell him any news about Lachlan, even though the man ripped a hole in his heart, Rory can't just sit around and do nothing, so he goes to the hospital where Lachlan is a patient.

There are so many questions to be answered in this book, and they get answered beautifully! Was Lachlan at fault? What will happen  when he goes home with Rory to hide from the press that want answers and recover? 

You will love this book friends, the connection between these two men is evident, even as they struggle with if they should act on it again or not! Thank you Rj, for a perfect book 1 in a series that promises to be wonderful!

CHECK OUT THAT LINK FRIENDS, YOU WILL HAVE ALL THE BUY LINKS YOU NEED! HERE IS AN EXCERPT FOR YA:

Lachlan wished Rory were awake, but he didn’t have the heart to wake him. If he’d slept through nurse visits then he must be exhausted. How long had he been outside Lachlan’s room? They hadn’t talked much last night. Sleep pulled Lachlan away at the weirdest of moments—a combination of his headache and the meds they had given him for pain. There was little more than awkward conversation with no substance in between sleep and even more questions from the Air Accident Investigation Board and that bastard Winterson, who seemed intent on pinning everything on him and Andrew. Perish the thought that the airline was at fault at all. At least Abigail was doing her part and doing it well.

Rory hadn’t talked much either. He’d just said, “Are you okay?” That was all. Lachlan wasn’t surprised Rory had little to say to him. Rory was normally the one that did all the talking, but he’d been so quiet. Their breakup had been dramatic and final. Not only that, but Rory would have seen the news, known that the pilots were currently still on the guilty pile.

You flyboys are so arrogant, you think you can control everything in your life,” Rory had shouted at him. One of the last times they’d talked, New Year’s Eve eighteen months ago.
And Rory had been right. Lachlan was arrogant, feeling so far above what a small-town man like Rory could give him when he had the world at his feet. Arrogant… stupid.
But they hadn’t even touched on what had happened between them. There was no shouting, no recriminations. No more chances for Rory to look at him with those patient green eyes and say he would always wait for him.

All Lachlan knew was that Rory was here, and knowing that, he felt secure. Rory had the physical strength that came from years of farm work. No one was getting past him. And people had tried. Lachlan had heard more shouting last night, and it had been Rory who stood silently and steadily in front of the door. A journalist who had decided that he could sell a picture of the pilot didn’t get into the room. And now? Rory slept, and he looked peaceful if still tired, with lines of exhaustion bracketing his eyes.

I’ve been here since Tuesday,” Rory had said. “I saw the news, and even when they didn’t release your name at first, I just knew you needed someone.”
How could Rory say something so perfect? Why had he come? Why didn’t Rory hate him?


YOU KNOW YOU GOTTA  HAVE THIS BOOK RIGHT? HERE IS A BIO AND LINKS FOR RJ:

RJ Scott has been writing since age six, when she was made to stay in at lunchtime for an infraction involving cookies. She was told to write a story and two sides of paper about a trapped princess later, a lover of writing was born.

As an avid reader herself, she can be found reading anything from thrillers to sci-fi to horror. However, her first real true love will always be the world of romance where she takes cowboys, bodyguards, firemen and billionaires (to name a few) and writes dramatic and romantic stories of love and passion between these men.

With over seventy titles to her name and counting, she is the author of the award winning book, The Christmas Throwaway. She is also known for the Texas series charting the lives of Riley and Jack, and the Sanctuary series following the work of the Sanctuary Foundation and the people it protects.

Her goal is to write stories with a heart of romance, a troubled road to reach happiness, and most importantly, that hint of a happily ever after.
