Fly to Him
by J.P. Bowie
A young flight attendant gets a billionaire’s attention in a way that could have meant the end of his career, but instead could be the beginning of an unexpected romance.
When Kevin Tate takes over for a friend as flight attendant on billionaire Logan Maguire’s private jet, he is certain it will be his one and only time aboard when he accidentally dumps an ice-cold drink on his employer’s lap. Instead, an instant attraction flares between the two men and Kevin accepts Logan’s offer to stay with him at his villa in Puerta Vallarta.
Their fledging romance is abruptly brought to an end when Logan hurries back to the States on a desperate mission to save his company from a hostile takeover. Kevin is left wondering if success and wealth is more important to the billionaire than the chance of love and real happiness.
Excerpt from Fly to Him
The takeoff was as
smooth as silk and Kevin watched through the window as the earth dropped away
from them and the Bombardier rose rapidly into the blue sky. Kevin loved
flying. It was the reason he’d quit his job as a bank teller, answering an ad
for flight attendants for a small airline, Jetair, dealing mostly with charter
flights for corporations. In the three years he’d worked for Jetair he’d never
tired of the thrill of travelling to different cities, or countries if he was
lucky enough to get an international flight. Nor had he become blasé about the
views afforded by being so high above the coastlines, cities or mountains as
the planes took off. It had all been great, until that one incident...
Steve gave them the
all clear a few minutes later and he jumped up to freshen Mr Maguire’s drink.
He took a second to duck into the toilet and make sure he looked okay. Not too bad, but I better not take the
time to change into my clean shirt and pants. I’ll do it right after I deliver
the drink. He hurried back to the bar, picked up the tray and made his way
down the aisle to where Logan Maguire sat, looking out of the window.
“Your drink, sir,” he
said breezily with a big smile. A big smile that morphed into an expression of
horror as the plane suddenly shook, lurched and dropped what felt to Kevin like
all of five hundred feet. “Gah!” The tray flew out of his hands, the glass of
Scotch and ice did a swallow dive straight onto the billionaire’s lap, followed
by Kevin who landed on his knees, face down among the ice and alcohol.
“Jesus!” Logan yelled,
trying to stand but unable to because of the man pressed against him.
“Omigod,” Kevin yelped
from between Logan’s legs. “I am so sorry.” He raised his head, wiping his
face, and stared into the bluest eyes he had ever seen on any living human, man
or woman. For a moment he was completely mesmerized, stunned by their arresting
beauty. As he stared into those eyes, so it seemed their owner too was totally
stunned, but for different reasons, Kevin was sure. He’d just had an ice cold
Scotch and soda dumped on him and a complete stranger falling head first onto
his crotch.
That was fantastic! lol I wonder if Kevin will be punished? ;-)
Author J.P. Bowie
Leaving home at age eighteen for the bright lights of London, he found himself in the midst of a "diverse and creative crowd" that eventually led him to the performing arts. For the next twelve years he sang, danced and acted his way around the theatres of London and the provinces, appearing in shows with many famous British singers, actors and comedians. He emigrated to the US and made his home in Las Vegas, working for that illustrious duo, Siegfried and Roy.
J.P. wrote his first gay mystery in 2000, and after having it rejected by every publisher in the universe, he opted to put his money where his mouth is and self published A Portrait of Phillip —still available, still selling. Now over 50 books, short stories and novellas later, he is writing m/m erotica almost exclusively. J.P.'s favorite singer is Ella Fitzgerald, and his favorite man is Phil, his partner of 20 years.
