A*R*C for honest review with no compensation Received from BookSprout Fated is book 4 in the Serendipity series by Carly Phillips written years ago but has been updated and loved both versions! Kate and Nick were friends from high school but he was her best friend Faith (book 1) ex. She thinks she is a rebound for Nick, not so but he has his work cut out to win her over… Misunderstanding, trust issues, steamy, laughter, some tears, easy read and more…

Kate is a teacher and has been hurt in the past. A guy in college used her and then dumped her. Now she has high walls around her heart. Nick owns a construction company and keeps asking Kate out. But Nick dated her best friend, Faith, in high school and when she came back to Serendipity they went out. She thinks she's only his second choice because he can't have Faith. Nick finally realized that Kate was the one for him but he has to convince her first. Short story. Sex. Romance. Two people getting their second chance at love.
