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.

Review: I could not put this book down. I got hooked right from the first pages, and it was non-stop until the end. And now that I finished it? I want to read it all over again.
Seriously, the story of Nate and Izzy has got to be one of the best romances I've ever read. It's sad sometimes, but so very beautiful. Two souls destined to be together but with a lot of obstacles to conquer before their happily ever after can even become a possibility.
I also loved the way the plot unfolds, alternating between present day and the story of how they came to be together. And the little (not so little) twist and the end (not romance related)? I definitely did not see it coming, but it does make total sense in light of the man Nate has become.
I can already see myself doomed to re-read In the Likely Even fairly often, but in the meantime I will definitely explore the other books by this author.
Totally recommended!
Happy readings!
