REVIEW ➞ Take Me Away by Kelly Elliott

BLURB ➞

When I’m not a test pilot flying for the U.S. Air Force, I can be found risking my life in other ways.

Skydiving. No problem.

Bungee jumping off a bridge. Like a pro.

Paragliding in Switzerland. Time of my life.

Zorbing in New Zealand. Fun as hell.

You see…all these life-risking adventures are not just a hobby for me, not just a way to pass the time. I need the adrenaline rush like I need my next breath. I’m addicted to it. It’s the only thing that allows me to bury my painful past—even if only for as long as it takes for me to come down from the high. All that matters is that I’m able to forget. And every heart-stopping moment of it was working…at least, until she appeared back in my life.

Both my worst nightmare and my wildest dream all wrapped up in one beautiful woman…a woman I was still very much in love with.

And that’s not the worst part…

Linnzi Cunningham has no idea who I am. She has no idea how intertwined our terrible pasts are—and for that, she is lucky.

She doesn’t remember the night when everything important in her life, everything that she lived for, was taken from her by the man who promised he would always protect her.

That man was me.

To love her is to forget she ever existed in my world.


“Why am I so drawn to you, Nolan?”

“Because we were much more than just friends, Linnzi.”


ARC REVIEW ➞

Take Me Away had me feeling EVERYTHING. I cried sad tears, I cried happy tears, I laughed, I smiled and I fell in love with Nolan and Linnzi’s beautiful, emotional story.

This is hands down my favorite book of the Southern Brides series and my favorite Kelly Elliott book to date. The moment I started this book I couldn’t put it down. This story captivated me, it made my heart ache. There is just so much emotion in this story and it is so beautifully written.

Nolan and Linnzi were childhood sweethearts, they had a great life together until one accident forever changed their lives. I loved Nolan. My heart broke for him and everything he had experienced in a short amount of time and never really had the closure he needed or the time to grieve, yet he still made a major sacrifice that I don’t believe many people could do. Linnzi, my heart broke for her, too. I loved her. She is strong for everything she experienced, even if it takes some time for her to realize that. Their chemistry is amazing. Their love for one another is for forever. Their souls know each other. It was truly magical.

If you’re looking for a small town, second chance between two soulmates romance that will have you feeling every single emotion this one is a MUST READ and hands down one of my favorite Kelly Elliott books!
