Choices of Fate by S. Simone Chavous On her own since the day she turned
eighteen and left the group home where she grew up, twenty-five year
old Alexa Ryan has made comfortable
life for herself. She has a great job,
the perfect apartment, every material
possession a girl her age could desire. Unfortunately, she also has an unusual
condition that has forced her to keep everyone at a distance. Ethan Kellar has spent his entire life
running from destiny. When he was just a boy, a powerful seer prophesied
his role in events that would determine
the outcome of the secret war his people
had been fighting for centuries. A role
he was determined not to accept, leading him to avoid letting anyone
get too close, until the night Alexa fell into his arms. Drawn to her in a way that he has never
experienced, Ethan decides to take the
ultimate risk by trusting Alexa and
revealing to her all that he truly is.
Thinking she is an ordinary woman, he
believes that she could be his key to
preventing the prophecy from being
fulfilled and allowing him to live the life
he has always wanted, one that he chooses. Having been so consumed with
the desire to determine the course of his
own life he wants no less for Alexa and
knows he must tell her everything, give her
a choice. Before that happens they surrender to the intense physical attraction
between them and he realizes too late that
in trying so hard to change his fate, he may have set the events of the prophecy in motion. In that moment, Ethan makes the most
difficult decision of his life and does the only thing he can to
save Alexa. He walks away. Consumed by grief, Alexa falls into a
deep depression until she learns that her brief encounter with love
resulted in a child and somehow finds the strength to put herself
back together for the sake of her baby Chloe. Nearly two years after Ethan walked
out Chloe develops an unexplained illness that sends Alexa in search
of anything that can help. Her pursuit leads her back to Ethan and
thrusts her into his dark and mysterious world, unlocking the
secrets of her past and revealing threats to their future. Together,
Alexa and Ethan fight to protect Chloe and their love, but there is
one battle Ethan fights alone as he struggles to choose his own path and
avoid the choices of fate. This is a good read with a story &
characters that keep you turning pages until the very end.
It's an amazing story full of everything you need to keep a story
interesting. I enjoyed it a lot. This is the first book I've read by
this author &I'm interested in reading more. I rate this book 4 stars Jennifer Wadkins
