    About this ebook


    On A Crash Course With LoveShe was the woman of pararescue jumper Manny Pena's dreams. But he'd stuck his foot in his mouth the last time he met Celia Munoz. Now, grounded after a parachuting accident, he was desperate to make amends with the beautiful widow. But Celia wasn't having it. The last thing she needed was another man with a dangerous job––even if he had given his life to God. Yet Manny's growing commitment to her and her troubled son began to convince her that perhaps she should take her own leap of faith.

      Another enjoyable story in this series. Another story of a para-rescue jumper that because of a parachuting accident, finds himself in rehab in Refuge. Manny Pena loves what he does and without the spirited Celia Munoz and her teenage son who drives him crazy most of the time, he would be very restless as he waits to heal. Celia is a woman who speaks her mind, even when she shouldn't sometimes. Her son, Javier, is in need of a father figure in his life to keep him in line and he really looks up to Manny. There are issues in both Manny and Celia's lives, but the sparks are there no matter how hard they try to ignore it. These stories so far in this series have para-rescue jumpers who are hard to resist. They may be tough on the outside, but they have hearts of gold on the inside. If you read them in order it will be much more interesting, as you get to keep up with the other guys in the team. The author also does a good job of placing the importance of having God in ones life and how He can truly change people and make them a better person. Looking forward to the next story in this series.
