Fate Will Bring You Home: A book of Family, Love, and a little bit of Fate
Who knew a simple guitar could change an entire family’s fate forever?
Aubrey Miller has always felt like something was missing. Little did she know that hole she felt would engulf her entire life. She uncovers a secret that has been kept from her since the day she was born. This secret will take her on a journey to finding her fate. She not only finds the missing pieces, but discovers a love that can change her life–if only she will let it.
Lincoln Marx is a true ladies' man, handsome and charming, but when the layers are peeled back we discover that underneath his player persona there is a lonely kid just trying to find his place. After a life in foster care and bouncing from home to home, he finally found his forever parents who taught him how to trust again. Meeting them would be the catalyst that leads him to the love of his life.
Will fate be enough to overcome the obstacles their relationship will face or will they ultimately have to love each other from a distance?

I usually don't read this genre, but I'm so glad I did! I would describe Fate Will Bring You Home as a heartwarming and sweet love story with some very spicy scenes. I enjoyed the characters, the small town vibes, the music references, the revelations along the way... I was entertained from beginning to end! If you are looking for a spicy, hallmark channel-like love story that gets you right in the feels, this is it!
I loved it!!

This small town, contemporary romance with spice is the perfect book for anyone looking to get lost on a journey only to find love in an unexpected place and person. A taboo-like romance that gives you the feels.
The story follows Aubrey in search of her biological father. What brought her on this journey will put her to the test.
Lincoln has some work to do of his own and meeting Aubrey changes his life. His idea of relationships are challenged as he explores what it means to find the person he loves.
Who knew a simple guitar can change someone’s fate and send them on a journey of self discovery, family, and spicey romance.
This is book one in a series of three book planned books.
I had the pleasure of reading this ARC from the author.

Such a beautiful story. I loved the chemistry between the FMC and MMC. It’s kind of a forbidden romance since he is her adopted step brother, which makes it taboo and I’m here for it. The spice was fantastic and made me blush! Definitely one of my favorite contemporary romances this year!

Oh yea…I ate this shit up! 😂😂
*This book officially releases on 03.02.2024*
I got this as an ARC, and it really was privilege because I know the Author and got to watch this book come together!
This book was soooooooo good! I loved the FMC, she was an absolute spitfire and it was so fun watching her evolve through out the book as well as the MMC, his evolution was amazing to watch as well since I think he had more growing to do than anyone.
This was a great pallet cleanser for me. I just love love and love reading about it. It’s just the cherry on top that there is a mystery to solve and some spice! I was so anxious just 80 pages in to see how everything plays out!!
Great book! Highly recommend!!

I ABSOLUTELY LOVED THIS BOOK!! I got this book as an ARC!! I absolutely loved the characters Aubrey and Lincoln.
The chemistry between Aubrey and Lincoln was amazing!! This story was so beautiful!! Aubrey found out that her dad was not her biological dad. She went to Connecticut and found her biological dad, August, and they got along so well. Lincoln was August foster son/ adopted son.
There was a few bumps in Aubrey and Lincoln’s relationship but they fixed it and healed separately and got back together.
I AM SO EXCITED FOR BOOK 2!!! ❤️❤️
Favorite Quotes:
“Just promise, and lastly, promise me that we will keep in touch no matter what. I want you in my life no matter what happens between us. Even if it’s once a month phone calls to catch up when I’m back in Connecticut.”
“You are taking me so good baby,”
“Because everyone leaves. They never choose me.”
“I know what I want, and what I want is you. I made all the changes necessary to make this work. I am ready to be the man you deserve now and forever. I have spent the last few months closing all the loose ends in Tennessee so I can be all in and be wherever you are. Now we can both live here and visit Tennessee together.”
“I know what it’s like to breathe your air. I know what it’s like to kiss those lips, and I know what it feels like to wake up next to you and what it feels like looking into your beautiful eyes. It feels like home. Sometimes home isn’t the four walls where you live. Sometimes it is the two eyes you look into and the heartbeat that fuels your soul. You are my home, baby.”
“I love you, Aubrey Lynn Miller. If you will have me, I’m yours. Now, forever, and always.”
“Lincoln Matthew Marx. I cannot wait to love you forever, no matter where we are. I am yours, and you are mine.”

Pretty sure this is a me problem, not the book’s problem.
I kept trying to push through and read this debut from Danielle because I love the author and the story seemed like I would enjoy it, but I just am just not connecting to the story like I probably should. In lieu of forcing myself to finish, I am tentatively dnfing until I’m in a better mood/headspace to enjoy it.
It definitely seems like a good read and I may pick up the ebook to revisit in the spring when I’m a little less sick and overwhelmed.

Review: I loved FWBYH, it was a super sweet feel good read that highlights love, connection, second chances, and redemption. The story was medium paced (fast read) and took you on a journey of different emotions. I loved Aubrey, she was a spit fire and her strength was depicted throughout the story. Lincoln on the other hand wasn’t always my fave lol. All in all FWBYH was very entertaining and is a great small town romance!

Danielle definitely wrote a good book. She was very detailed about how the characters felt and even the places in the book which made me feel like I was there. There were times when the main character reacted a certain way n the way she described it made me feel like I was going through it myself. One of the spiciest books I’ve read so far and it caught me by surprise! I would say it reminds me of Heartland meets an x rated movie 🤣at least for me! I definitely blushed a lot !

When Aubrey does a genetics test, she thinks she may find some cousins or other family similar to that....not that her parents haven't told her the truth that her dad wasn't her biological father...
Aubrey begins the journey just planning on meeting her father (August) and finding out more about him. She never planned on meeting her hot 'brother'.
When Lincoln finds out that August, the person he considers to be his dad since he was 14, has a gorgeous daughter, he wants to take her out. August forbids any of it because he is afraid to lose the daughter he just met.
Aubrey and Lincoln know that they shouldn't have any type of relationship, especially since she lives in another state...as their friendship grows, so do other feelings.
Will they act on those feelings? What does fate have in store for these two and their families? Find out in this heartfelt story.

Where do I even begin? I am not a romance reader, I had tried many times in the past and I just couldn’t do it, but I figured, what the hey!? Danielle needs readers, I’m Danielle’s friend, and what are friends for??! Helping each other out!
I was soooo not expecting this book to take such a hold on me. Literally because I started it yesterday morning and finished it today, but Aubrey & Lincoln had me sooooo invested! I LOVE Lincoln! I loved how Danielle brought real life circumstances and situations into her writing that made you truly feel how her characters were feeling. The emotions, the heart ache, the love, the anger, everything! I truly felt Aubrey’s emotions on every page, it felt so relatable. The growth each character has, the experiences, all of it was perfect.
I truly love this book and I cannot wait to read the Final Cut on March 02!

This book was BEAUTIFUL!!!
This was also the first book that I’ve read that was about musicians! I loved it!
I am not one for sad stories because I’m already an emotional wreck but this one is worth the tears. I really promise you that. I really related to Aubrey and how her panic attacks just randomly came about. It was hard to hear her go through them but I loved how Danielle put real life situations into her book. I love how Link nicknamed Aubrey Songbird. That is the my favorite nickname I’ve ever heard in a book! Very different too!
I can’t wait for more of this story timeline! I absolutely loved Brielle’s character and can’t wait to hear her love story and more about her in general!
This was a beautifully written love story between Lincoln and Aubrey.

Lincoln & Aubrey… *sigh*…. Loved them!
So Aubrey finds out that the man she thought was her biological father… isn’t. She finds her bio dad and sets off to meet him. While discovering a man she missed out on she finds family, friends, a sense of belonging, and love…. With Lincoln. Lincoln, the foster child her bio dad and wife have been raising since he was 14. Lincoln doesn’t even think he’s capable of love until Aubrey comes into his life.
When things get tough, Lincoln puts in the work to make things right again!
This book was emotional, real, deep, funny, and just all around amazing. I can not wait to read the next book in the series!!

This book was amazing, an emotional rollercoaster that kinda makes you wanna thump a couple characters in the forehead, going "dummy, what were you thinking" but so worth the read because those characters' decisions makes the whole story worth it. I guess without a little drama, the story would be dry, and this book is anything but! Highly recommend!

What a great debut story! The chemistry between Aubrey and Lincoln is so intense but in a good way! The banter between the 2 had me kicking my feet and giggling. There’s a few spicy scenes so if you don’t read spice, this might be a bit inappropriate. If you do like reading spice, you’re going to LOVE it ❤️. Every character had so many relatable features I just loved learning more and more about them as the book went on. I can’t wait to see what else Danielle releases! Definitely worth the read!

I LOVE THIS!!!!!
This book gave me all the feels! I laughed, I cried, I went through so many emotions with Aubrey as they happened! I love that it was 1st person dual POV throughout. I love that the main character knew what she wanted and went for it even when she was scared. I love the cliffhanger at the end! Now I am really excited to see what happens in the next book!

Fate Will Bring You Home is the debut novel by Danielle Lynn. It’s a heartwarming, small-town contemporary romance. I was immediately drawn to the story! Insta-chemistry between the FMC and MMC. I loved going on their journey as they navigated in finding themselves and working through their issues. I laughed, I cried, I swooned…it was just so perfectly done!
What to expect:
✨ small town romance
✨ he falls first
✨ found family
✨ strangers to lovers
✨ forced proximity
This book was everything and look forward to reading the next book in the series!
