Inevitable (Harmony series #1)
Author:
Angela Graham
Genre: New
Adult
Synopsis:
Cassandra Clarke, fresh out of college and living on her own,
isolates herself from the humiliation that rocked her world a year earlier.
Everything in her life is simple and easy until Logan West, the
single father full of mystery and sex appeal, moves into the empty estate next
door. A guy who easily attracts the attention of available women in town with
one carefree smile.
Cassandra is not looking for another heartbreak and stands her
ground, but finds it impossible to stay away from the charming stranger when
his four-year-old son, Oliver, takes an interest in her childhood tree house.
It is through Oliver where Cassandra’s eyes begin to open to a
side of Logan very few people know. The
rough edges and arrogant front shed
away, leaving the compassionate, yet broken side of him exposed, and finally
opening the possibilities to a genuine friendship.
A friendship that is constantly shaken by the undeniable
connection building between them.
With temptation arising every time they are near, Cassandra fights
to remind herself exactly why Logan isn’t capable of loving her the way she
deserves, or is he?

Excerpt
“Yuck! I hate farm animals
especially being this close to me,” a young woman I’d never seen before complained
in front of us. She held up both her hands, disgusted and maneuvered around a
tiny puddle of mud wearing knee high boots with heels nearly six inches. Her
short blond bob and bright-red lipstick stood out among the background of rust,
dirt, and livestock.
We walked behind her silently, watching the
hens go about their day. It was easy and comfortable being with Logan. Oliver
and Jax were a barn ahead of us and to my relief Julia and Mark went ahead with
them as well.
As we continued through to another barn, my
tolerance for the blonde bimbo and her two friends—that were equally out of
place but much less aggravating—was wearing thin. Each time we stopped or Logan
made a comment she was there, hanging on every word. Her roaming hands rubbed his
arm or touched his hand when he rested it on the wood pens.
It was driving me to a breaking point.
I wasn’t jealous, really, but I was about to
rip her manicured claws off him if she did it again. It was just him and me.
You’d think she would assume he was my boyfriend unless…I winced. Logan was a
six-foot-two Greek god and I was, well, me. No wonder she acted as if I didn’t
exist. Next to him, I didn’t.
"Oh, my God!” she squealed, hands
flailing wildly in front of herself when one of the cows nudged her arms. I bit
the inside of my lip, hard, seeing red when the little skank turned around and
flew into Logan’s arms. She buried her head against his chest, her hands taking
full advantage of having him in her grasp.
With a shake of my head, I continued walking.
Better to leave than say something I’d regret. I had no reason to be upset
anyway. Good for Logan, she looked like an easy lay.
Within seconds, Logan’s hand was folding
around mine. I flinched, wrapped up in my own head.
“I think the others aren’t
too far ahead. Oliver probably has them stopping to stare at every moving
creature,” he said as if nothing happened and it was completely normal to hold
my hand.
Did he really not feel the electric current
his touch surged through me?
With the raw irritation of the blonde still
fresh and my feelings that were in no way justified, I pulled my hand away.
“I was just going to get a
bottled water. Stay here and I’ll catch up with you later.” I then leaned in
and whispered, “She likes you, might as well have some fun.” I nudged my head
back at the girl lingering behind us and turned to leave.
His hand shot out grabbing my arm and pulling
me back. He looked almost angry when he spoke. His voice gruff and stern, “I’m
not interested in having fun with her, Cassandra. So if you want some water,
I’ll go with you.”
I tried to hide the smile
tugging at my lips, my heart swelling despite my brain telling me not to read
too much into it. With his hand on my back, where I secretly felt it belonged
at all times, we turned back around and exited the barn.
My Review :
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."
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."
"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."
Author Bio:
I am happily married to my husband of five years, have three
wonderful children and a beautiful feline companion that keeps me company
during late night writing binges.
My love of reading has been life long but it was in early 2012
when I was inspired to finally put pen to paper and write my first story. Since
then I haven't been able to stop, fueled purely by my passion to write a story
and create characters that readers will enjoy.
New Adult romances are my go to books to read as well as to
write. They are young, fresh and full of hope. What's not to love!
