The First Class Series
A year after losing her husband, her high school sweetheart and the love of her life to cancer, Janie Anderson embarks on a once-in-a-lifetime trip to New York City. Trying to escape the oppressive loss and hopelessness of a life without him, Janie sets off on the adventure she has dreamed about since she was a little girl. Exploring the Big Apple, New York City, she secretly hopes that this landmark event will free her from her grief and unlock a future as wonderful as the life she had lost with Robert’s passing.
After a series of
embarrassing encounters with a man in a dark grey suit during the flight, Janie
wonders if this trip might be more than she bargained for. At 42, she is much
too young to spend the rest of her days as a lonely widow, but is resolved to
the fact that, like lightning, a love like that of her first marriage rarely
strikes twice.
When she accepts
his invitation to dinner that evening, Janie is terrified at the realization
that she’s actually attracted to him. The handsome and wealthy Matt Lathem is
sexy as hell, but, as Janie comes to realize, has baggage of his own. Can they
help to heal each other in time to realize that a second chance at love is
within their grasp?
First Class to New
York’s Janie Anderson returns home to Portland after her long awaited,
once-in-a-lifetime trip to New York City. She had spent two weeks in the Big
Apple with the drop-dead gorgeous Matt Lathem, whom she had literally stumbled
upon while embarking on her highly anticipated adventure. He had warned her
that once her trip was over, so was their time together. But she had fallen
head-over-heels for him anyway and had lacked the courage to tell him her true
feelings. Heart-broken, she boarded the plane back to her life in Portland.
Back in Oregon,
Janie tries to forget him and move on, only to have everything remind her of
what she had left in New York: a fresh start and another chance at love.
When Matt realizes
that the woman of his dreams and the love of his life is only a first class
ticket to Portland away, he risks everything and boards the next plane for the
West Coast. What had started as a “romantic fling” had blossomed into something
he’d never felt before; an unyielding desire to spend the rest of his life with
her.
When Matt shows up
without warning, Janie’s world is once again tipped upside down.
Katy, a
head-turning gorgeous ER nurse, has spent her life watching her best friend
live the romantic fairytale not once, but twice. She’s had to fight and scrape
for every ounce of happiness she has ever had, and must battle once again for
her life and her dreams.
She wasn’t sure she’d ever
been truly happy. Did she even deserve love or happiness? She doubted it.
Would it ever be her turn to fall in love? She didn’t
think so.
Katy had always enjoyed the fact
that men found her physically attractive, but it always seemed to be the wrong
men. “Does my Mr. Right even exist?”
she’d wondered.
Just a week before
her best friend Janie married her Mr. Right, Katy had everything taken from
her, enduring what no woman should ever have to. Lured, kidnapped, and
violated, her life and sense of wellbeing was destroyed in an instant.
Mark had rescued
Katy from her captor, but could he now rescue her from the lurid memories that
disturbed her every thought? He knew one thing, Katy deserved justice, and he
would stand by her side until the criminal was rotting in prison… or
hell. He would not let her face this tragedy alone.
Unwilling to spend
the rest of her life as a victim, Katy fights the demons left to haunt her by
the predator and searches for a way to reclaim even a sliver of hope and
happiness.
First Class Voyage is the 4th book in the First Class Novels adult
contemporary romance series by AJ Harmon. When best friends Janie and Katy fell
in love with the rich and sexy Lathem brothers Matt & Mark they didn’t
realize the new family dynamics they would be sucked into.
Family time takes
on a whole new meaning when Maureen, the matriarch of the Lathem clan, decides
she wants to celebrate her wedding anniversary by taking the entire family on a
Caribbean cruise. She drags her husband, seven adult sons, their significant
others, five grandchildren and a mother-in-law onto a floating city in the
Caribbean Sea with 3000 other passengers… where insecurities and tension
between in-laws begin to surface.
Matt and Janie are
still enjoying their happily ever after while Katy struggles to find her place
in the large family. Frustrated by Maureen’s constant pressure to transform her
3 year engagement into wedding bells, Katy boards the ship expecting it to be
the worst 14 days of her life. Mid-voyage, panic sets in when Janie’s best
friend fails to return from a shore excursion with Mark. Remember what happened
the last time Katy went missing?
In this book you’ll
be introduced to Matt and Mark’s five younger brothers including Paul, a Navy
Seal on leave between tours of duty. He’s not excited about being trapped on a
boat surrounded by the circus called his family. Is Paul ready to trade in the
organized discipline of military life to be a civilian with a wife and family?

end, I wondered what on earth could fill me with joy as much as writing that
series.

and son one afternoon, the idea of Sky Romance Novels was born and I was so
excited I could hardly wait to get to the computer and start pounding out the
stories that were already taking form in my head. After months of planning and
writing, my new contemporary romance series has taken on a life of its’ own and
