Brandon
After being unfairly fired from my job, I head to my family’s vacation house where the quiet seclusion will give me time to figure out my next move. Fate has other plans when a snowstorm lands me—in need of care—on the doorstep of a sweet and sexy alpha. One touch from him and I know nothing will ever be the same. With the storm raging outside, another storm starts raging inside me. My heat has come early.
Mason
Catching a snow-covered omega wasn’t on my agenda for the evening, but as soon as I touch him, I know he must be my fated mate. I always thought fated mates were a myth, but something about this man is making my body and heart go haywire. Does he feel it too?
Surprised by Fate is an instalove, fated mates, mpreg romance. It contains high heat and sexual content not suitable for anyone under the age of eighteen.
REVIEW:
Sweet! There is no better word to describe this novel and these two men…they are simply sweet!
Omega Brandon has given his all to his boss Bill and now is saddled with the task of training newly graduated accountant Mick, Bill’s SIL, how to work his way in their firm. However, instead of the reward of the new position he had been trying to get promoted to, Brandon gets canned and useless Mick get his job. After sulking for 3 days he heads to his family’s cabin out in the country. But a late winter storm winds up causing him to slide off the road. So it’s get out and walk in the driving snowstorm or freeze to death in his car. Can life get any worse. When near hypothermia sets in he stumbles to the first house he finally comes across and literally passes out in the arms of a man, Alpha Mason, when he opens the door. But life has a funny way of making good out of bad and the moment each man touches the other they each know that the have been blessed in finding their elusive Fated Mate!
These men are so sweet and so perfect together. The chubby Alpha that thinks he’s no one’s catch and the precious omega that finds him everything he has ever wanted and that’s before he touches Mason and knows immediately he’s his fated mate. I loved how cautious each was to not overwhelm the other but, thankfully, the author didn’t drag the angst out of “does he like me or is it just me in heat” that can sometimes go on way too long in other books. And the loving and tender way that Mason is with Brandon is sure to tug at the most cynical person’s heartstrings. You simply can’t imagine them not together.
One of the tiny parts I actually awwwed out loud at was how baby Zane got his name. That was so precious and perfect. I had never read that twist before but it really worked. I also loved how Zane managed to take over special moments even before he was born like the proposal.
I read that Benji, Brandon’s roommate’s book is next and I really hope he gets a special Alpha for his fated mate. I am hoping 🤞 that we will eventually get Peter’s story too. I really, really enjoyed this new series start by this new-to-me Author on their first book in the Alpha/omega universe genre.
