Up in the Air 1: Johannesburg by George Loveland
3.0
~ 3.5 stars ~
Quick and sweet short story about two adorable men who meet on a flight to Johannesburg. There's an instant mutual attraction but thankfully, it's not insta-love. James and Darren get to know each other as best as they can during the couple days they spend in Johannesburg together and the ending is a strong HFN.
Despite the book called Johannesburg, we don't get to see much of the city. The story could have taken place anywhere really and I wished there was a stronger sense of place.
The secondary characters, mainly James' friends/co-workers and his gran, are introduced and play a part in the book but they don't overtake the story.
Book 2, [b:Up in the Air 2: West Coast|40381198|Up in the Air 2 West Coast|George Loveland|https://images.gr-assets.com/books/1528125107s/40381198.jpg|62679634], focuses on James' best friend Max and book 3, Up in the Air 3: London, which is yet to be released, will be about James and Darren again.
