Conclusion of the romantic suspense Twist of Fate trilogy.

"He's always known what I was too afraid to admit: we were meant for each other. I always thought Fate was being cruel by causing our two worlds to collide, but now I think she knew Aiden was the only guy who would complete me."

OMG - Fate Loves is THE perfect conclusion to this trilogy. I couldn't have wished for a better ending. Even though I got quite attached to Addison and Aiden, as well as Lexi and all other folks around them and I am sad that this journey is over now.

Again, Tina did another great job in letting fate have it's way. Or her way. Depends on how you name it. ;-) Fate Loves hasn't the same fast paced parts as the other two books have. It runs pretty smooth and steady. And by now I am pretty used to the way how Aiden and Addison deal with the obstacles life throws at them. But it's always great to read. It's almost like in a fairy tale, where the unbreakable love conquers all. Those stories are what my heart aches for. If I can't have my own fairy tale in real live, I am happy to live it through the eyes of such easy lovable and strong characters. Thank you Tina for giving Aiden and Addison to us!

The Twist of Fate series is one of the few I wish I could read for a first time again!

"You were the North Star to a man without direction, and I know as long as I look to you, I'll never be lost again."

"Our love story isn't perfect, but the love we have for each other is."

p.s. if you are satisfied with a HEA than please don't ignore the warning before the epilogue! It' will totally break your heart and leaves you with a heartache until the next book is ready for us. But I'm really, really looking forward reading Sydney's book!

Ha...I just knew that 'non-sense' cliffy in book 2 was just that a 'nonsense' and annoyance too...

But I guess in the lack of any other ideas, that one prolongued the inevitable, a HUGE soap opera HEA..

Cheers...

Reread.
This is my least favorite of the series, but still worth it.

Que surpresa essa série! Ao longo dos 3 livros, apesar de focar sempre o romance, achei que foi perdendo a ação mostrada nos 2 primeiros. Não que esse último não foi bom. Foi lindo! Apesar de tudo ficou com gosto de quero mais.

The conclusion to Aiden and Addison's story.... Besides the twists and turns that were thrown at us the emotions I went through I wasn't sure if I was going to be able to survive that.

There were many questions I had and this book answered them for me and gave me more to chew on but a good chew :-)

Seeing how Aiden's fierce love for Addison was a constant had me swooning and wishing I could hug the mess out of him. Oh and Lexi, aka Tator-Tot, she just completed them!!

This will not be my last read from Ms Saxon, so I say to you, please keep them coming! 5 Beautiful Stars

"This is our life."
"This is our family."
"This is what Fate has given me. Love."

Fate Loves is book 3 in the Twist of Fate series, I would highly recommend reading Fate Hates and then Fate Heals in that order, to enable you as the reader to follow the story line, otherwise it will become to confusing.
Fate Loves is a beautiful conclusion to an amazing series, once again Saxon has managed to keep me enthralled from the moment I started reading.
I found it to be a fast paced read that was beautifully written.
It has everything you would expect from Saxon...twists and turns, some you never saw coming, questions from past books are answered.
Addison and Aiden have overcome so much in there relationship, Fate Loves does not disappoint.... I laughed, I cried and at one point I was mad as hell....this book is emotional on all accounts.
It will have you feeling the emotions along with the characters, it's passionate, emotional, aggravating , alluring, intense and a whole lot of sexy!!!
The evolvement of all characters since Fate Hates is evident through the series, and to me, that made the story more real...like you where looking down into someone's life.
Just like the previous books in the series, the secondary characters are an integral part of the story, and without them the story simply would not flow so effortlessly.
I would highly recommend the Twist of Fate series, but be prepared to not wanting it to end.
Sydneys book is next and I can't wait for its release

Hmmm

I’m still thinking as I write this review. I have loved Addison and Aiden’s story, even the difficult times and every day events. Book three was the "more" of a book you always want when a good series ends. However, it was almost too much. At least for me.

I really appreciated book 1 & 2 taking time to develop a story and relationships. But 3 was more of a really long epilogue. It was nice but too much for me. Still a good series.

Wth was this. I had to skip thru cause way too much crap. And that epilogue. Was a joke.

[Melissa Travis · Rating 3 out of 5]

I loved this series but for some reason this one fell flat to me. It wasn’t horrible but I guess it was just predictable? I’m not sure. It was real written and a good conclusion to Addie and Aiden.

[Jennifer Pierson · Rating 5 out of 5]

Fate Loves is the brilliant conclusion to the Twist of Fate trilogy, and it was fantastic! But guess what? It's Book 3, so everyone MUST READ Fate Hates & Fate Heals before taking this one on. Trust me, if you don't, you will be confused and literally miss the plot. Aiden has proposed to Addison, and she said yes, but life wasn't done screwing with them yet. They have already been on an intense journey uncovering all the lies & secrets of their past & present lives, but they never saw her coming! Will they ever have their happily ever after? This story was the perfectly heart racing conclusion to a high octane trilogy. I have absolutely LOVED the evolvement of Addison & Aiden through the toughest times, even when I wanted to shake them from time to time. Diabolical twists came out of the woodwork & blindsided me again, so my permanent state of mind consists of loud f-bomb dropping moments. The sexy times were hotter, angst levels continuing to be off the charts emotional, perfectly placed humor to keep me laughing loudly, and suspense for days which has me still singing colorful metaphors. And Ms. Saxon is such a talented lady that I'm extremely addicted to, even though I stand on her hash tag of #EVILWHORE. See, I thought life was ending great, but alas, there was an epilogue that has me hanging over a big cliff, so now I find myself sitting in shock, calling this talented author some very colorful names. But the bottom line is this, I CANNOT WAIT for the next story, and may or may not be plotting to stalk her in the meantime! HIGHLY HIGHLY HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

I started reading this book as soon as I had finished the second book! The second book left the characters story at quite a cliff-hanger, so I couldn't wait to find out what was going to happen next! I also didn't read the synopsis of this book before I read it so I didn't know a thing about it lol! After reading, I can say that I loved this book just as much as the other books in the trilogy! It didn't have as much of a suspense aspect to it as what the first two books did, but there were other things going on to keep the plot interesting! Romance also dominated the plot of this book and it was all about the main characters getting their happy ending! There were some seriously hot scenes in this book too and they were really, really hot! I also cried a lot more at this book than I did the others and I wasn't expecting that lol! I will tell you that they were happy tears lol! There was also a huge twist at the end of this book and I was left with my mouth hanging open! I honestly couldn't believe it and it really took me by surprise! The characters were again amazing and made this book even better! Addison was again the main female character, and in this book she had come a long way with what she had been through and she was looking forward to the future with her love interest and family and friends! I loved Addison a lot in this book and I connected with her all the way through it! Addison had also grown a lot as a character from the first book and I felt like she was a more understanding character and had been through a lot to find where she really belonged! Aiden was again the main male character and love interest of Addison! I did feel for Aiden in this book because he had a lot on his plate and he was trying to keep his relationship with Addison on the straight and narrow! I think he handled everything really well and he always put Addison first! This did make me respect Aiden because I felt like he made the right choices! Aiden was again very protective of Addison in this book and it was easy to see the amount of love he had for her! He would do anything for her and the love they had for each other was beautiful! I loved that this book was written from both Addison and Aiden's point of views like the first two books were! It helped me connect more with both characters, especially since the two characters were going through a lot separately! It allowed for more things to happen in the plot too! I would say that this book was more evenly split between Addison and Aiden's point of views too, which made me happy! I'm also really sad that this book is the final book in this trilogy! I've loved every second of reading it, so I'm really sad to say goodbye to Addison and Aiden! I was really excited when I got to the end of this book though and the author announced a book for a secondary character in this trilogy! I'm so excited to read it and I really hope that it releases soon because the wait is going to be torture lol! The ending of this book was also insane and a huge twist, so it's left me even more desperate for the next book! I also love the cover for this book a lot! It really suits the romantic feel of the book and the relationship between Addison and Aiden! It suits the other covers in the series too!

Addie, Aiden & Lexi

Addie fosters Lexi and Aiden proposes. Jessie shows up at Addies' party and says she's 8 months pregnant with Aiden's baby. The baby is not Aidens but Addies' brother Brooks. Jessie tries to kill Addie, Brooks gets custody of the baby. Wedding plans come together, and they apply for adoption of Lexi.
Absolutely loved this series of books, one of my favorites !!!!!

[Heather Petzold · Rating 5 out of 5]

I loved this book. I’m glad Addison and Aidan finally got their HEA. This book had so much heart and emotion. This book definitely kept me on the edge of my seat. There were so many ups and downs and twists I didn’t know what was doing to happen. That epilogue just about killed me. I can’t wait to read Sydney’s book.

[Nena R. Stewart · Rating 5 out of 5]

What a way to end the series!

I am so glad I was introduced to this author! This trilogy was amazing! The love between Aiden and Addison was amazing! I cannot wait to read more from her! Well done!!

[Kay · Rating 5 out of 5]

Fate loves did not disappoint! So often when I read a trilogy, the last book just kind of wraps things up but does not have a lot of substance to it, WELL not with this book! This book had so much happening and it kept me reading and wanting more! Tina Saxon did a remarkable job at writing this series and I can't wait to see what she writes next! And that epilogue........WOW!!! Did NOT see that coming!

[Lori Lamb · Rating 5 out of 5]

Oh man! This series seriously gave me all the feels! I have gone through every emotion on the planet with these 3 books, but mostly happiness. I feel so in tune with these characters because they are so real and I am not ready to let them go. Addison and Aiden's story pulled me in and I could feel their every emotion. And the epilogue, GIRL are you trying to kill me! Please write Sydney's book fast, I NEED IT!!!!

But seriously, read this series now! You will not be disappointed!

[D.L. Gallie · Rating 4 out of 5]

What an amazing conclusion to an amazing series
As with everything in Addie’s life, nothing is ever smooth sailing; including her wedding but as usual, Aiden swoops in and saves the day
The ending was beautiful....Until the epilogue; damn you Saxon, I need Sydney’s story now

I highly highly recommend this series

Sweet Romance

Am so happy that Addison matured and fought for Aiden in the conclusion of this trilogy. I shed a few tears throughout, especially Lexie’s adoption. However, nothing prepared me for the epilogue. How cruel. Now, it’s a wait for Sydney’s book.

[Crystal Jimenez · Rating 5 out of 5]

Love love loved this book

What a great ending to Addie and Aiden's story. I loved this book. And then you had to throw the epilogue in there. Now I need Sydney's story.

[Linda Rogers · Rating 4 out of 5]

I have to say that I loved reading about Addy and Adrian and their friends, but in all honesty, I have to ask the author a question. Your use of so many description of sex is unnecessary. We all know what making love is like with all of it variances, so why do you feel it necessary to be so descriptive? Perhaps it is my age (75) but in talking with those younger than me, I find that they too feel it is not necessary to the story line and really detracts from it. Also, from reading about you, it appears that you either have a great filter because you cannot actually speak the way you have your characters speak in the other areas of your life or with your family, or you know a whole different population of people than most of us know. Of course, I know that people younger than I am, use a lot more swear words than I am comfortable with, but I honestly feel that you should think about adding a dollar for each inappropriate word that you write, knowing that they are not really a part of the story. If you would think about writing a more toned down book, it would be even better in my opinion. All that being said, writing is not easy and your editors and others must feel that this is what sells. After all, I bought the two follow-up books to the first one I got free on Amazon, so it would seem that they know what sells. Please take these suggestions with the respect that they have been given. I wish you only the best.

Book 3 starts where book 2 ends after Jessie made her announcement. The roles have reversed with Aidan this time being the one to pull away and put distance between them. Push n’ pull storyline’s doesn’t rate high on my favorite to read list because it leads to more mistakes and more excuses.

Tina Saxon is a new author to me I usually shy away from new authors, but I was gifted this book so I took a chance. Unfortunately, I didn’t find a new author to explore. Tina’s writing style doesn’t match up with what I prefer.
The prologue didn’t indicate the type of story Tina had lined up. If I had known beforehand this was a push n’ pull story with kidnapping and rape I would’ve passed. Since I’m already invested skimming has become my means to an end. This was one of those on-the-nose narratives where every minute detail was included. There’s too much overwriting with unnecessary details. These details don’t advance the plot.

The main reason I read this book was because Travis was this supposed dangerous man, yet not one scene spoke about what Travis does that makes him a dangerous man. I’m disappointed Travis’s world was not mentioned. This had the potential to be a good story had the main characters not been crowded out by the minor characters.

I’m glad to be finished with this series! I must admit that I had a better time reading this than I had the previous two. It may even be my favourite of the three. I would still say that it is on par with the other books for me, but it’s by no means a bad book. Thankfully the cliffhanger we were left with in book 2 doesn’t cause any major problems for Aiden and Addison. I’m glad that Addison didn’t spiral and stood by her man. And it was resolved quite quickly. But I did already know that outcome because of Wedded Chaos. The rest of this book was just Aiden and Addison getting ready to be married and becoming a family. It still had a bit of drama, but this book definitely felt like it had more of a focus on their relationship and I appreciated that. Still didn’t like how everything always had to resort to being sexual and so intense between them, but hey, I can’t like everything. So yeah, it was okay. I’m glad they got their happy ending. I was still so much more intrigued by Damon and Sydney and seeing them progress but knowing Max is in the equation too - I was confused how this was going to play out for their book. But then I read the epilogue and it shows us how that situation will pan out, going forward. It’s sad but I’m intrigued. Onto that book next!

[Lesley Bradley · Rating 5 out of 5]

Well thank goodness I have made it to the end! I’m not sure how much more my little heart could take, the hits just kept coming for this adorable couple. Aiden really shows his alpha side in this book, sometimes a little OTT, but that’s just his way. Addison seems to have come through the really dark phase in her life and made impressive leaps and bounds to get back to the strong person she was. This book for me focused more on the two of them as a couple and how their life could be if fate just gave them a break. There are a few occasions in this book where Aiden deserves a throat punch and if I had been Addison I don’t know that I would have forgiven him as easily or as quickly as she did! I loved the emotion of the book and really liked seeing some happier times for not only them, but most of the characters in the book.
Some little things to sum up this series; emotional, dark and twisted, character building, lifelong friendships, laughter and Max Shaw…yum!!

[Teri · Rating 4 out of 5]

In the case of these two you have got to wonder wth when it comes to fate or is it just Addison. This child seems to draw trouble to her. This time there are more lies by omission, jealousy is always a problem and the influence of external crazy. The author did a great job of making this a full well rounded story. Loads of excitement and intrigue and yes it was worth it being broken down into a trilogy. Although I wasn't always a fan of Addison she did win me over in the end and made for a great read between her and Aiden and their crazy bunch of friends.

Brilliant trilogy

I loved these books. I have read all three in three days and completely loved them. It is possibly a bit unbelievable that two people could have so much bad luck but I loved the way that was acknowledged and flipped into the fact that all of those twists of fate led them to each other.
I adored all of the secondary characters, especially Max, lexi and Sydney. Intrigued to read Brooks story and can’t wait to read Max’s story too.
You will not regret investing the time in these books.
Stalking the author now to find out next release!!

Gripping read

Stumbled on this author by chance and wow so glad I did . The series had me gripped from the first book . Just when you think things are going one way it stumbles onto another avenue ... the twists and plot me reading into the small hours . Aiden and Addison are high on my top favourite read of the year . Can’t wait for more of this author ..... the epilogue how cruel makes you want much much more but can’t wait for the next book ☺️

Sentimental romance

Final chapter in the three part saga of Aiden and Addison love story. Few little dramas but the characters and dialogue was great.
Very sweet and endearing.you could see a series devoted to all of them. The ending I saw coming, the author planted those seeds.
Looking forward to reading syd, Damon and max story.
