|
|
I have read three books involving a plane crash and have really enjoyed them. There is a plane crash in the beginning of the book and the rest of the book is about their survival. I've read Two Alone by Sandra Brown, Up Close and Dangerous by Linda Howard, and Charming the Highlander by Janet Chapman. Do you know of any more?? Thanks  |

She Went All the Way by Meg Cabot. This is probably my favorite of the "crash landing" bunch.

| I just realized after searching Amazon, I was going to recommend what you've already read..the Linda Howard book, Up Close and Dangerous. I loved that one! |

The one book that stands out to me is Susan Grant's CONTACT, though it is not exactly what you want.
This is about an airflight, but not quite as you'd think. |

Annie's Wild Ride by Alina Adams is a terrific book about a divorced couple, both pilots, who reunite. The hero hurries to rescue the heroine whose plane has crashed in the mountains. The book unfolds as he is searching for her and the story of their relationship is told in flashbacks.
Monica Jackson had a novella I enjoyed that involved a plane crash in the anthology Big Girls Don't Cry. |

| Another Howard book, A Game Of Chance has a plane crash too, but the conflict in the story comes from other things. I really liked it though. |

| Thanks everyone for responding. I have read Contact by Susan Grant which I really liked, along with Game of Chance by Linda Howard. I will check out the other two books that I haven't read yet. Thanks everyone. |

In Can you Keep a Secret there is a scene in the beginning where Emma spills all her secrets when she thinks the plane is going to crash only to find that the guy sitting next to her is her new boss. Very funny.
The airplane scene in the movie Almost Famous was very funny when they are confessing their secrets to each other. I don't know if this was a book originally.
These aren't survivor stories but they were funny |

| Someone Else's Heart by Zelma Orr revolves around a Hero who is scarred to fly and a heroine pilot; it does include a plane crash but later in the book, pretty close to the end if not at the end. |
