Of All the Fates

A chance meeting causes a string of coincidental run-ins, or is fate stepping in to lend a hand?

Zoey Sheridan is a fifty-something short, curvy widow, mom, and indie author, starting over in a small town in Tennessee.

Jackson Wallace is a forty-year-old gorgeous, divorced grump that owns a business with his twin brother where they buy, renovate and flip properties for a profit.

A chance meeting starts a chain of events that can only be described as fate.

After Zoey and Jackson bump into each other (literally), at a bookstore, they continue to run into each other while doing things they both enjoy. It is it coincidence, or fate?

Jackson wants nothing to do with Little Miss Sunshine, but after every encounter they have, it seems that Zoey has begun chipping away at the stone that his heart is encased in.

Jackson's one and only marriage left him broken and unwilling to trust not only his heart, but his instincts, where women are concerned; that is until Zoey comes along.

But when Zoey goes missing, Jackson nearly loses his mind and starts blaming himself. He feels that he's either cursed or unworthy of love and happiness.

Will he find Zoey in time? Will he ever let himself be happy, again?

Fate works in mysterious ways, and when you least expect it, what is meant for you, will always find its way back.

As the red string of fate goes, when two people are destined to be together, they are connected by an invisible red thread. The thread can stretch, and tangle, but it will never break. Time, distance, or relationships will never keep them apart.
