Books in this series are freaking amazing. I have to say this one is my favorite out of the three so far. I absolutely loved the story between Emma and Jimmy. It hit me hard reading about everything that Emma goes through. Those were some difficult pages to get thur. But to have her knight in shining armor rescue her. Loved it. Yes there is an age difference between these two but honestly I don't even think you notice because this is so well written. Amazing chemistry spark right from the beginning.Gripping book from first page to last. Highly recommend this one.

Fate is the third book in the series and it's about finding love when least expected even with a big gap age between the characters
I really don't like big gap age in my reads but this book just took my to another level and I have to say it's my favorite.
Jimmy and Emma meet at a BBQ party and although he feels attracted by her she is the little sister of one of his friends and colleagues in the SEAL team.Retired and a bar owner, he gets a phone call from an unknow number and even if it's late and he doesn't know her,he gets to save her from her own mistakes and keeps her safe because he will always be the hero, the knight who saves any mistress in distress. Emma is just a young woman who tries to make a life for herself but always takes the wrong decisions and ends up in the worst situation ever in her life.While she recovers from her latest mistake,we get o see the Tornado sisters and Katie again and how they become friends.
It's a story full of angst and there are triggers for violence and abuse,but also a love story that overcomes anything and everything,including all the differences between such characters.

Jimmy and Emma first saw each other at a BBQ with their friends and family, though they didn’t say a word to each other. When Emma’s brother, Justin aka LT, was deployed he gave Emma Jimmy’s phone number and told her to call him in case she need help with anything. One day Jimmy received a strange phone call from a girl asking for help because her brother told her if she was ever in trouble he would be the one to call. Fate brought them together, but will fate keep them apart?
I love the SEAL’ed series but there is just something about this book that sticks with you. It is so emotional and reading everything that Emma had to experience seriously breaks my heart. In her young life that poor girl has experience so much pain and suffering. Jimmy struggled with his feelings for her and tried to stay away, but oh when he let is go…..let’s just say Jimmy is HOT! Andi Jaxon and AJ Alexander write such beautiful, emotional stories with just the perfect amount of hotness and Fate was no exception.
Of course, we also got more of our favorites from the previous books, Katie and Logan (Honor) and Charlie, Amber, and Avery (Love). I couldn’t put this book down. It had me swooning, fanning myself and crying.

I really enjoyed this story! I haven’t read anything by these authors before and found that this book could be read as a standalone however I absolutely want to read the first two books in the series now. I loved all of the characters; especially some of the secondary ones so would like to read their stories too.
Emma and Jimmy’s story was fast paced filled with lots and lots of sexual tension. I really liked Jimmy, he had that alpha male protective vibe going on and I wouldn’t mind being rescued by him! He was very respectful towards Emma even if he thoughts weren’t quite so! They did seem to have a genuine connection and he really did want to protect her. Emma wasn’t quite as naive as I expected her to be, she had quite a colourful past but deep down she was a nice person and I was rooting for her and Jimmy, despite the age gap, he is what she needed.
Overall a really good read and a series I can’t wait to read more from!

Jimmy is a man that I want in my corner should I ever get into trouble. Emma has picked the right man for the job. Their story is a May/December romance. I might have said friendship but they don’t really get there since they don’t seem to stay in the same place at the same time for very long. You can also tell how young she is and how much life experience Jimmy has.
The authors don’t write anything that will make you feel uncomfortable if you’re not into the older man/younger woman read. But if you have read the first two books we have characters from those two books that make an appearance. The way this story was written, you don’t have to have read them in order to be able to enjoy this one but hopefully you’ll want to know what the other characters stories are all about.
Many years ago I hated reading a story from the point of view of the character. Now I love it because I get to really see what they’re thinking – especially when it comes to the person that will come to mean so much to them. With this book we get to see the regrets Emma has but you also see that she seems to keep making mistakes but I think that’s more age related. That’s also one way that we see the age difference between our main characters. You also get a sense of Jimmy’s apprehension when it comes to Emma and how it affects her. There’s a scene where he actually talks to her about his concerns and that’s just one thing that adds some realism to the story. The ending couldn’t be more perfect because it speaks at to who these two people are. But I didn’t feel as if they put a final period to their relationship. Maybe we’ll see them appear somewhere else?
