3.5 Stars!
I just finished Fortuitous, and I was able to read it in one sitting! If you're looking for a quick easy read, this would be what I would recommend. However, just because it's a short read, it does not mean it lacks in sex scenes. There are definitely some steamy scenes in this story!
Annabella moved to LA to live with her sister. She's just finishing up high school and about to turn 18. When she first gets to town, she meets Marcus. Marcus is 23 and an established business man who has everything he needs; including women constantly throwing themselves at him. So when he doesn't want anyone else after just one encounter with Bella, she can't understand why he wants her. Bella sees herself as just an ordinary girl. She doesn't see that guys gravitate towards her.
On Annabella's first day at her new school, she meets Slade. Slade is in the same grade and has a few classes with her. Their relationship is strictly friends, but I can tell Slade feels a little more for her than friendship. Honestly, I kinda liked Slade. There's something dark and mysterious about him!
In the end, this was a good story. The only thing I had a hard time with, was how fast the relationship between Marcus and Annabella moved. I am happy that I get to jump right into book 2! Book 1 kind of leaves you with a little cliffhanger, so I'm interested to see how things continue. I'm also nervous, just a little bit, that something might happen between Slade and Annabella. I hope he doesn't give up too easily on his feelings for her. I'm keeping my fingers crossed!
