Fly with Elbie

LuEllen has never really worked a day in her life until now. After years of relying on others and making one poor decision after another, she finally decides to take control of her future. When she leaves behind a troubled relationship and boards a flight to Australia, she hopes for a fresh start. What she finds instead is a messy house, an absent boyfriend, and a life she's not ready for-but perhaps the life she needs.
With grit, humor, and more than a few stumbles, LuEllen cleans up her new reality-both literally and figuratively. She lands a job in a warehouse, begins helping at an airport, and discovers something completely unexpected: a passion for flying. Against all odds and expectations, she sets out to earn her pilot's license and transforms her life, one flight at a time.
Told with honesty, heart, and sharp wit, 'Fly with Elbie' by Mark Erickson is a powerful story of second chances, unexpected strength, and the courage it takes to find yourself-no matter how late in the journey. LuEllen's story reminds us that it's never too late to start over, and that sometimes, the sky is not the limit-it's just the beginning.
