We all have choices in life… paths to take… roads to
follow….
It’s on those journeys that Fate finds us and takes us where
we need to be.
Without a second glance, we can be taken away from
everything we knew, the "people we love" and given a new life.
One that can change us… save us…
What would you do if Fate dropped you at a crossroads? Would
you go back? Or would you run like hell the other way?
One night is all it took to change Sidney Chandler and Simon
McAllister’s future and set them both on separate paths.
But when Fate decides to reunite them almost a decade later
will Simon be able to win back the woman he loves? And will Sidney be able to
get past what happened between them and move forward?

Review
Book #1 Adjournment-
Emmersyn Vallis is new to me, I never know what to expect with new to me authors as I avoid reading reviews on the book I'm going to read.
I am glad I didn't read the reviews on this one as it may have prevented me from reading it.
Yes it starts out slow, it did take me awhile to get into and the heroine is not my favorite as she's bit childish but the book redeems itself.
This story centers around the Chandler sisters and the McAllistar triplets, but is Simon and Sydney's story.
Sydney walked away from the life she grew up in, changed everything about her life. Walked away from the world of socialites and tea to become a makeup artist in Hollywood.
She has new goals and a new life but has to come home for her parents vow renewal. Home to her sisters and the McAllistar boys.
To Simon.
The boy she loved is now a man, can she handle being around the person she left behind? The only man she's ever let get close to her.
Okay so I was hard on the book in the beginning, it was a slow start and I wasn't a huge fan of Sydney, at the end I still think she was a bit childish but this book was good enough to make me want to read next in the series, and considering this one left us hanging it's a necessity!!
Book #2 Hanging Pawns-
Hanging Pawns in book 2 in the Fate Series but reads more like a prequel to the series.
Following Adjournment I was looking for some closure with book 2 but it wasn't to be.
This is a quick read that tells Mea and Josh's story.
We met them in Adjournment but didn't know too much about them.
I enjoyed their story, Mea's struggles, Josh's quiet persistence.
Other than the fact that I expected book 2 to follow book one this one was a good read. I did fall for Josh and Mea but was really hoping for Simon and Sydney in this one.
Book #3 Sacrifice-
What in the ever loving hell is the author thinking??? Yet another cliffhanger only this one is worse. I could not believe the end of this book. My kindle was thrown at the nearest piece of furniture that would not destroy it while I cursed the authors evil brain for doing this to me yet again. I've got to get to book four asap and pray this author has come to her senses and gives us what we want!! So this one starts out with Simon and Sydney basically in a relationship, something that kind of came as a shock. It seems I'm missing some pieces between books two and three, hopefully book four will answer all my questions and NOT end in a cliffhanger!! This series has been up and down for me but I've been unable to stop, I absolutely have to know how it ends.
Book #4 End Game-
FINALLY!!
The end is here, secrets are out in the open, reality is a bit different than anyone imagined but in the end everyone gets exactly what the deserve!
I waited so long to get to the end, I had read the first three books almost back to back and loved it but completely forgot about book 4 when it came out, I'm not sure how I missed it, I had to go back and refresh my memory with the end of book three going into #4 but it all came back to me in those few pages at the end of Sacrifice and I was sucked right back into Simon and Sydney's rocky relationship.
I love this series, I really adore each and every book. I can't believe I lost track of the series and it took so long for me to realize it but I can honestly say it was well worth the wait. This book is packed with suspense but it quickly begins to unravel. It's well paced and keeps you guessing and borderline begging to find out exactly who's at fault for what. Loved each and every page.

Author Bio
Emersyn Vallis currently lives on the East Coast but,
unfortunately nowhere near a beach where she dreams she was with a cocktail.
She's the mother to three crazy and wild children who are her world, a cat who
thinks he's the boss of the house, and a hamster who knows he's the
favorite. When she's not running her kids all over creation she can be
found on her computer or with a book in her hand. As a teenager, she spent most
of her weekends lying on the floor of her local Borders reading with her trusty
hazelnut coffee close. After years of reading for fun, she thought she would
try her hand at writing. Joining together her favorite elements from different
genres that spoke to her she took to her computer with an idea. The Fate Series
are the first of hopefully many books to come. And she looks forward to
introducing you to them.
