The Summer Skies

About the book

Morag's Journey

Born into a family of successful pilots, Morag is accustomed to soaring high above the clouds. But when a tragic accident forces her to stay grounded, she begins to question if her dream of a future in the skies is still within reach.

Upon learning of her grandfather's sudden illness, Morag leaves behind the hustle and bustle of London to return to her serene homeland in the Scottish Highlands. With her grandfather unable to fly, Morag steps up to the plate and takes on the responsibility of piloting his old, unreliable plane, transporting locals to and from the picturesque islands of the archipelago.

However, a twist of fate throws Morag off course as she crash-lands on a secluded island, far from civilization and completely alone. It's on this island that she encounters Gregor, the gruff and solitary ornithologist who is tending to the island for the season. Despite their initial differences, Morag is forced to seek refuge in Gregor's cabin, creating an unlikely bond as they wait for help to arrive.

As they weather the storm together, Morag begins to realize that perhaps being stranded on a remote Scottish island might just be the unexpected journey she needed to find herself.
