Tarnished Wings — Crymsyn Hart

When Brad Conners enters Navy flight training he never expects to meet a young woman who will turn his world upside down. Like Brad, Lilli Foster has never known love. During flight training, Brad's grades suffer. When it appears certain he will wash out of flight program, Lilli gives him a silver crucifix. When he tries to refuse to accept the gift, she insists he keep it, telling him it will bring him good luck. She claims the crucifix has no special meaning to her, a lie as it is her most precious possession. It is the only link to her father, a man she has never seen in her life. Lilli dreads the day that Brad will leave Pensacola for advanced flight training in Texas. She fears that will be the day he walks out of her life for good.
