Ava is a commercial pilot who loves her job and loves to be on the move even more.  Tom is a super smart medical examiner who has dedicated his life to his job and his family.  They are thrown together as Ava returns to her hometown for the 10 year anniversary of her best friends murder.  This is a creatively written romantic comedy that attempts to celebrate and subvert our favorite tropes.  I liked both of the characters and for the most part enjoyed their humorous banter.  At times, this book tries a little to hard to be funny, often veering into ridiculousness, but I did mostly enjoy this sweet romance.  I received a digital ARC of this book through NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.
