    About this ebook

    Two people meet for the first time on a plane flight. While Emma at first appears to snub Dave, what he doesn’t realise is that his fellow passenger is actually suffering from air-sickness. He secretly hopes for a smooth flight and a non-eventful landing as he is prone to air-sickness as well. As the plane makes a turbulent landing, they are both embarrassingly struck by a nauseous attack. Despite their bumpy beginning, they manage to connect.

    Libby O'Neill

    I am an Australian fiction writer and artist.Originally from Maitland, near Newcastle, I have lived in Central West NSW for more than forty years. Many things inspire my creative pursuits - my life experiences, country and coastal locations and travel. One of the hardest things when writing is choosing the right name for characters.In 2012, I self-published one of my novels called The Jasper Plate. This novel is available for purchase as a paperback, a hard-cover book and also as an ebook.Online, visit The Book Depository, Amazon or the Xlibris online bookstore to order, or order from any good bookstore.
