Do you believe in fate?
I never did until I met her,
We were strangers,
Brought together by chance,
Bound together by choice,
Each trapped within our own limitations,
Struggling to break free,
Aching to fly,
A moment changed everything we once knew,
But sometimes a moment is all it takes.

Wow! What can I say, this book was amazing. This author has such a beautiful way with words. She makes you feel like you are right there with the characters. The book is about Blair, a free spirit who needed a bit of a getaway to find herself. She meets Carter, who himself is on a getaway. They befriend each other and yet, sparks fly. Do they get together? While this may be a short story, it enthralled me from the very first paragraph. It's emotional, it's beautiful, it's perfection. Pl ...more

What a delightful heart warming story. I really enjoyed this story that was sweet, heartfelt story full of hope. It's amazing how fate works. When you least expect it ... fate steps in. This was a quick well written story that was touching. I loved the characters as well. This is the first book I have had the opportunity to read and hopefully will not be my last.

Another wonderful story from an author whose work is full of heart, hope and surprises. Blaire and Carter's story is delightful and lighthearted yet poignant and heart wrenching and has the power to make you view coincidence and happenstance in a new light. This is a quick, captivating holiday read that warms the heart and is sure to please.
I hate short stories because I always want so much more than what we get. However I love them as well because if it’s good writing you can fall in love with the characters in that short time! Blair is everything I want to be in life. She reminds me of Kate from Bright Side and of Mayce a childhood friend of mine. Such beautiful souls!
This will make you want to believe in fate. They never did until they met each other. They were strangers brought together by chance . They are bound by choice. A moment can change everything. This is what happens so dead to see what it is

This is a wonderful novella that I read in one sitting. Serendipity touches on finding love in the most unexpected places with the most unexpected person. Ms. Joseph writes beautifully and leaves you rooting for both men.
This book is emotional, heartfelt and intriguing romance. The characters are strong, patiently trying to find love in unexpectedly in other places. It is written well. I liked reading this book.
I really enjoyed this book. I felt so much for Carter and what he experienced. It’s hard to get beyond the betrayal of two people he trusted but I’m glad he found Blair.
What a sweet read that will have you loving this story as it is perfect story for a cold night to read. This story will grab you by the heart.
Story was enticing but I need to know more.
Jo-Anne has done it again. She will keep you guessing at every moment in the book. My heart actually hurt for Blair in this one. How can you choose? The message is clear though. Make the choice that is right for your heart no one else but you.
A beautifully written and touching novella, I loved Blair's story and her love for two men: Asher and Carter. This was penned in such detail that I felt like I was there, in their heads, experiencing all that they were. This book carries you on a ride of emotions: love, heartache, betrayal, anger, hatred, hope, confusion, despair and back to love again. It is a definite must read!
Do you believe in fate? Well you may after reading this novella. What a spellbindingly good read. Quick read and wonderful to boot. Jo-Anne is fast becoming my favorite author to read. She will be on my one click radar for many many years to come. Surprisingly beautiful story. Cant wait to see where she takes my favorite characters too. I so hope she continues writing because this book was super awesome just like her others. Do yourself a favor and one click this author. She is worth your time a
