Serendipity is the first book in the Inevitable serie and if it's example of what will follow I'm not gonna be disappoined at all. It's  easy to like a book but I find difficult to actually love one. In this case I totally fell in love with Nathan and Julia's story. I was hooked from the beginning. Every charachter, each one of them, good and bad, are very well developed. I even liked Cameron. I don't hate her but I do pity her. I came to understand her desperation and hate even if I don't do agree with the choices she made to cope with her sorrow. Nathan's reasons to keep staying with her and not to break the engagement off are a bit weak but it happens all the time that our guilt makes us do something against our will, something not always right. It's easy to say I'd have done that or this but sometimes it's hard to always be able to carry what's best out. And even if Nathan felt this strong attraction and connection to Julia from the start, even if insecure of his engagement to Cameron and even if he cheated on his fiancée with Julia, I understand why he cheated and why he didn't call it quits with Cameron. I don't like or forgive what he did but not all love stories have a smooth way ahead of them. Some situations are not ideal, some decisions are tough to made, some actions may be questionable, people will hurt, feelings will be crushed, hearts shattered but love is also messy, hurful, unfair. Nathan didn't try to find Julia again even if he wanted. He tried to stay true to his commitment after he failed once. He tried. He failed but in the end he really tried. It's just that you can't control your feelings, who you love.  Then destiny happens and messes with your plans. Julia's intentions were to forget what happened in New York and her time with Nathan but fate brought them together again. I've always believed in destiny so I believe it's destiny for these two lovers to find each other when they less expected and wanted it. Cameron may be the scorned fiancée but Julia is the ditched lover. She is the other woman but these women don't have steel hearts to defend themselves with against heartaches. The same is worth for Cameron when she becomes the other woman. Julia and Cameron acted differently when at diverse moments they were in the same situation. Julia was the lucky one to be loved back so the story unfeld in an opposite manner for her. I just wanna say that Nathan is not an as ** ole, two-timing jerk as you may think, really! He happens to be a nice guy who was caught in a complicated situation. You don't have a crystal ball telling which is the the right thing to do. Anyway I was so enthralled with the story I didn't put it down until I finished it. And when I was approaching the final pages I kept dreading the moment there was nothing more to read.  The chemistry was burning, the sex scorching and I felt sparks all the time. Someone could find a bit annoying the descriptions of Julia's outfits, to each his/her own, but I liked to know how she dressed since it fits the character, her work and her style and I add, her high fashion taste is exquisite even to me, a sweat pants and T-shirt girl. Nothing overly descriptive by the way. Then you have Anton and he is my next favorite character. Loooove him so much. And don't make me start on Tessa and Ian. If the author was able to make me start obsessing over a couple who makes an appearance together only once and without even speaking to each other, well, you know she must be that great!!!!! Fortunately their story is the next. In the end I'd recommend Serendipity? Absolutely so!
