Inevitable

Inevitable is a new adult romance starting off when Cassandra finds her boyfriend cheating on her and she decides to move into her grandparents old house which is pretty secluded with only the estate next door which has been empty for a while and had just been sold.
In walks Logan an absolutely gorgeous man that Cassandra is instantly attracted to. The problem is he is a player, sleeps with loads of women and even though Cassandra is attracted to him she doesn’t want to be just another notch on his bed post.
This book is fantastic, I am really liking the current new adult romances available at the moment and this kept be hooked. I loved the will they won’t they plot and loved how Cassandra and Oliver hit it off straight away and that show more she loved spending time with him.
Cassandra was a strong woman even with the hurt she had suffered, she was not going to allow that happen again.
As the story continues I got to learn more about Logan and the reason why he acts how he does and I could understand him more.
The ending of the book was left at a place that makes me NEED to read the second book as soon as it comes out. It was a “OMG don’t end it here!” moment.
Brilliant book, fantastically written and I can’t wait to read book 2 and other books written by the author. show less

Oh my did I really love this book! However, I HATE cliffhangers! Hear me authors....I HATE them. I didn't even feel this one was terrible and hope like hell it's not a trilogy! I will say I did see the ex business coming but not the ending. I normally would not have been able to stick out a romance with....well, not much romance between the main characters but this was filled with interesting dialogue. This entire book is about the "building" relationship between the main characters. I will wait for reviews before I read the next one to see if any real progress is made. I need to have all the loose ends tied up for my HEA (that I still hope is going to happen in the next one!).

This book was so close to being 5 stars, but it came at a bad time for me. I've been reading so many cliffhanger books lately that I'm really over it. Whatever happened to getting a full story in one book?! And maybe I should have known going into this one since it said book 1 of 2, but I was really hoping that book 2 would be Caleb and Hilary's book. That being said, it was a great story. I loved the humor (the pool scene), and I really felt the connection between not just Logan and Cassie but also Oliver and Cassie. The scene in the art room at Logan's where Oliver showed Cassie the picture of his mom and talked about her... heartbreaking! I am sad for how the book ended, but I am also glad that Cassie is sticking to her guns. I was show more afraid when she was happy to hear Logan's voice at the accident scene that she was just going to give in to him, but she remembered what he did/said to her and made him leave. It's so refreshing to read a strong female character! show less

Inevitable by Angela Graham (Audiobook)
Narrated by Xe Sands
Series: Harmony book 1

4.5 Stars - I picked up this book solely because of 2 things.. it was a romance and it was narrated by Xe Sands. I haven't heard about this author before and I was quite enjoying it until boom! CLIFFHANGER!!! What?!?!? Ugh... I hate cliffhangers. Now thankfully this book was written in 2013.. so I currently have the next audiobook downloading as I type this. But wow, seriously did not see that coming - this is where an actual paperback type book sorta warns you… you know, with the lack of pages left… lol

Anyway, back to my review. This book has lots of flirty moments, it's a slow burn kinda book, lots of wishing and wanting and almosts.. which have show more built the tension nicely. I like both Logan and Cassandra and they are fun together. Oliver is a nice addition and offers a little more to each character in how they interact with him. There are some intense moments, some sweet, some not so much. I have paused in what I was doing more than once to just listen, as I watch the scene unfold in my mind.

So Yes, Still enjoying it.. and now as the download is complete.. I am off to listen to book 2! As always Xe Sands does a great job. She is one of my favourites!!

Very good book and will definately be looking to read more in the series. The heroine is genuine and down to earth. She goes through everyday troubles just like a modern woman would. The hero of the book is a little jaded and of course she wants to change him. But realizing you can change a person may not be what you wanted all along.

Cassandra finds out the hard way that Life can always be unexpected and sometimes Heartbreak is in the shadows. After finding her Boyfriend cheating on her She moves to the outskirts of town into a House her grandparents left for her. As she is preparing to start her new job as a teacher and get her life back together the estate next door sells and in moves Logan , his 4 yr old Son Oliver, and his sister Julia.

“I'll never give up. You have my heart, my soul, my everything. When you're ready, I'll be here."

Logan Sexy, Swoon worthy, Single dad . I liked how one of the main characters had a Child, It is not often you see that in a story. He has been hurt by his ex, and has been raising his son with the help of his sister Julia. He is a show more playboy, after being hurt he does what most men do and just goes out with chics for the sex. He does not want to let anyone in for fear of not only his own heart being broken but his son’s heart as well. Oliver is his number 1 priority though and you see that throughout the book.

Oliver is so funny, I loved how his friendship with Cassandra Brought Her and Logan closer together throughout the story.
The sexual tension builds with these two and you know they want each other but neither one wants to completely take the chance of being hurt.

"She was everything, and for the first time in my life, I knew I would never want anyone else."

Their relationship slowly starts to build and I love how it played out. I love that they did not just jump into bed with each other from the beginning. There are some ups and downs throughout but it builds to the story as well.

"This was love. Unconditional, all-consuming, mind-blowing love."

There is a Cliffhanger Dang it and I can not wait for book 2 and see where their relationship goes ,. I am sure we will get our HEA.

"Things don't always work out the way you plan, sweetheart, but I swear to you, you are everything that any smart, deserving man could ever ask for." show less
