Finding Fate: A Small Town, YA, Best Friends to Lovers Romance (Tied by Fate #1)

When fate steps in, all bets are off.

Isabel Dearly loves her life: good friends, dancing, and a summer job. She doesn't want to waste a minute before starting senior year. And though she loves her childhood bestie in probably more ways than one, she could never involve herself with someone who's that much of a player.

The only thing Tucker Patterson is worried about is keeping his options open. Being a lifeguard has its rewards, especially when the beach was a buffet of hot tourist girls. Too bad he suddenly can't get his best friend out of his head.

But when Izzy starts dating the wrong guy, Tucker realizes that high school relationships are not all fun and games. Stubborn and hotheaded, Isabel refuses to listen, forcing Tucker to take a stand that will change everything about their friendship.

But as the two friends navigate their new relationship, a shocking turn of events forces them to make some very grown-up decisions, with very grown-up consequences.

Can Isabel and Tucker’s childhood bonds withstand an unexpected twist of fate?

Finding Fate is the first book in the Tied by Fate series, a coming-of-age story filled with the fiery emotions of lust and infatuation, and the unexpected consequences of passionate first love. An emotionally intense read.
