In the Likely Event

From the instant New York Times bestselling author of Fourth Wing, Rebecca Yarros, comes a sweeping romance about the sustained power of chance encounters.

When Izzy Astor gets on a plane to go home, she isn't expecting much. It's the usual holiday travel experience: busy, crowded, stressful.

Then she spots her seatmate, who is anything but ordinary. Nate Phelan sports dark hair, blue eyes, and a deliciously rugged charm that Izzy can't resist. Their connection is undeniable. Izzy never believed in destiny before, but she does now.

Just ninety seconds after takeoff, their plane goes down in the Missouri River.

Their lives change. They change. Nate goes on to a career in the military while Izzy finds her way into politics. Despite a few chance encounters over the years, the timing never feels right.

Then comes a high-stakes reunion in Afghanistan, where Nate is tasked with protecting Izzy's life.

He'll do anything to keep her safe. And everything to win her heart.

I like how this books plays with real life events. It explores how difficult military life can be with deployments, uncertainty and trauma the military experiences. It's a love story that finally has an ending

In the Likely Event was one of those books where you're instantly hooked. The characters are unique and lovable, and each moment they had together had me kicking my feet and smiling ear to ear.

I just really love Rebecca Yarros and her style of writing. Everything she writes is brilliant and the characters never seem repetitious or overdone. Would recommend to anyone who loves the romance genre and needs a fresh take :)

Okay first, the songs mentioned throughout this book make for a damn good soundtrack! Now second, the military piece is a little far fetched but I don’t mind because romantic fantasy always outweighs reality. This was a quick read for me because I didn’t want to put my kindle down. I was consumed by the chemistry between Izzy and Nate from page one. Book #67 in 2023
