Air Bound

Air Bound is a romantic suspense novel by the American writer Christine Feehan, published in 2014. It belongs to the sequence of books set in and around Sea Haven, and its heroine's talent is the kind that makes her valuable to people who should never have had access to her.

Airiana Ridell has been able to read the patterns in the air around her for as long as she can remember, an ability that took her into a secret government training programme when she was a child and then into flight from it. Her mother's murder ended what stability she had, and the people who want her have never stopped looking.

They catch up with her and hold her aboard a ship heading for dangerous water. Her one chance of getting off it is Maxim Prakenskii, who has reasons of his own for wanting her free and no intention of telling her what they are. The secrets he keeps threaten the small community of Sea Haven where she has been living, and the attraction between the two of them develops under pressure rather than in comfort.
