About this eBook

 Keely Andersen hasn’t visited her hometown more than a handful of times in the last ten years, but when her doctoral research sends her back to Marietta for the immediate future, she can’t wait to reconnect with the community and the mountains she missed so much. Of course, nothing goes as planned, and Keely’s truck breaks down a few miles outside of town. When help arrives, she finds herself face to face with her brother’s best friend – the guy she used to call big, bad and gorgeous – Jonah Clark.


Still settling back into Marietta after a harrowing stint as an army helicopter pilot, Jonah Clark plans to spend a few days hiking the local mountains to prepare for his job as a pilot for Crawford County’s Search and Rescue team. When he stops to help a stranded driver, Jonah is shocked to find his best friend’s younger sister is the one behind the wheel. Only now, instead of the geeky teen he remembered, Keely is all grown up with curves he can’t resist.


Though the sparks of attraction ignite immediately, they're hesitant to act because of their shared past. But when a project dear to their hearts is threatened, and a boy is lost on Copper Mountain, Keely and Jonah drop everything to fight for what matters, including each other.

4 star Review Daring The Pilot (Men of Marietta #3) by Jeannie Moon Wow, I really loved this book. This was the first of the series that I have read and I believe each book is written by a different author. When Keely Andersen returns home after travelling the world for over 10 years, the last person she expects to bump into his her high school crush and home town hero Jonah Clark. Keely has always been known as a smart woman, but on occasion has found herself in need of rescuing and it is always Jonah Clark that rides in to rescue her. When her truck breaks down, Jonah is the one who stops to assist Keely who is shocked as she had no idea that he was back in town. Whilst Keely and Jonah both realise that the attraction they had for each other is still there, both are cautious and neither wants to be the one to start something. I loved the interaction between Keely and Jonah, not to mention the secondary characters. Jonah is so caring, totally swoon worthy in my opinion and I certainly fell for him as much as Keely did. Now a Search and Rescue pilot, Jonah is at home in the mountains surrounding Marietta; he is also an extremely reluctant participant in a posing for a calendar to raise funds in memory of another first responder. Of course Keely is determined that Jonah pose and will use whatever means she can to encourage him.. As their relationship gains momentum, their story is filled with a great deal of romance and humour. The characters were well written and I have to say I could have continued reading about these two for a lot longer and was sad to finish the book. I would love another story that re visits these two characters.

Jeannie Moon did it again, by making me fall in love with her heroes, Keely and Jonah, in the book Daring the Pilot, the third book in the Men of Marietta series. Super smart Keely Andersen has crushed on her brother’s best friend for as long as she can remember. Jonah Clark left his position as a pilot for the Army and joined the search and rescue crew in Marietta. When he encounters the grown up and beautiful Keely stranded by the side of the road he goes into protective mode, wanting to take care of her. These two have off the chart chemistry which is difficult for them to avoid. All Keely wants is to be her own person and especially now that she has returned home, after traveling the world for her experiments. Jonah wants to protect her and love her, her family treats her like a young child, and Keely is confused trying to choose which path to follow; continue her research or teach and spend her life with Jonah. I loved the manner in which Ms. Moon described the struggle Jonah had with posing for the calendar that was to raise money to save Harry’s House in addition to the way he decided that he had to do it. Also, having the other emergency workers at Jonah’s shoot was a fun addition and connected this book with the others. I really enjoyed reading this book and had trouble putting this book down, reading it in one day. I highly recommend this book to other readers. I voluntarily reviewed a complimentary copy of this book.

Another great addition to Men of Marietta. Keely, brainy has returned home to Marietta when she runs into Jonah, whom she has known for years. Jonah is good friends with Keely's older brother. Jonah has also returned to Marietta after leaving the army as a helicopter pilot, he now works for the search and rescue team. They share an event from years ago. There is an immediate attraction between the two, but Keely has always been off hands to Jonah. Now that they are adults, they finally decide to act on their attraction. Loved the connection and magic between Keely and Jonah. Jonah is so caring to Keely. Great chemistry and humor between the characters. I highly recommend this book along with the other books in this series.
