Carla's a writer who brings you home to times gone by. Grab A FLYING AFFAIR for a day beneath a summer blue sky and immerse
yourself in a timeless romance.
Ever since Mittie Humphreys agreed to join dashing barnstorming pilot Ames for a
joyride
in his airplane, her lifelong love of horses has been surpassed by one thing—a
longing
for the skies. It seems she's not the only one—with Charles Lindbergh making his
victory
tour in the Spirit of St. Louis, aviation fever is spreading across the country.
Mittie
knows flying is the perfect focus for the soaring ambition and taste for adventure
within her, and whenever she can slip away from her duties on her family's
prosperous
Kentucky horse farm, she heads to the airfield.
Considering their shared passion, it's no surprise that Ames begins to vie for
Mittie's
time. But when handsome British aviator Bobby York offers her flying lessons, he is
equally surprised-and beguiled-by Mittie's grit and talent. Driven to succeed,
Mittie
will do whatever it takes to compete in the Women's National Air Derby alongside
Amelia
Earhart. But when Calista "Peach" Gilson, a charming Southern belle, becomes her
rival
both professionally and in love, Mittie must learn how to navigate her heart's
romantic
longings as well as the skies.
Carla Stewart’s writing reflects her passion for times gone by as depicted in her

she earned the coveted honor of being invited to attend Guidepost's Writers Workshop
in
Rye, New York. Since then, her articles have appeared in Guideposts, Angels on

husband relish the occasional weekend getaway and delight in the adventures of their
six
grandchildren. Carla enjoys a good cup of coffee, great books, and hearing from you,
her
readers.
