What if #1

Fatality

Rate this book
Jane and Charles Scallanger constantly told Holly not to phone Jake Peter. But in this What If Novel, Holly phoned him from one of the nurses phones.

With Jake looking for her, that phone call is a blessing from above, and he discovered Holly so much sooner.
How does the story end.

Fatality is an alternative ending to Imperfect Love, but please note if I ended Imperfect Love with the Fatality version, Secret Love falls away completely.

WOW! One heck of a Twist!
What if?, A great question with so many different outcomes that lead to three amazing twists keeping you suspended on edge enjoying each new outcome as they continue to take you in different paths making you rethink if one of these truly would have been the better outcome for the ending to this amazing series leaving you stumped and rethinking if the original should have been this alternate ending! So many amazing choices leaves me struggling undecided but in the back of my mind I already know the perfect ending for me could be that I'm greedy and am willing to accept the fate of digesting all three! An amazing must read that will have you rethinking everything you were willing to settle as the HEA from this beautifully written original ending!

I got this novel when I pre-ordered Endless Love, the third part in the 4Ever series.
Oh man, this is such a sad yet so sweet novel. Jake and Holly, what more can I say. I absolutely adore the what if novels, and heard that it is going to be published into a box set soon with four new ones. At the moment Isabella only have 3 up for grabs.
Fatality, Luck and Fortuitous.
All what if versions.

You can't put them down.

Fatality: An alternative version of Imperfect Love (4Ever Series #1) (What If) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07HB5LCSY/...

As the author stated, one must read the first book before attempting this alternative ending to Imperfect Love. I really enjoyed the happiness of this book’s ending, whereas Imperfect Love never truly had an ending, but left one expecting a HEA in a follow-up book. Imperfect Love could have continued in the way it was going, with a reunion of Jake and Holly at a later date. However, Fatality really flowed well after Holly gave birth. It’s a shame their reunion occurred just as Jake was leaving for China again. I would have enjoyed seeing them continue their relationship further. Overall, this book is a fantastic read and I highly recommend it.

I absolutely love all the What if Novels From Author Isabella White.
These are all short stories about the outcome of what might of happened if things worked out differently if Holly never left if she staid when they meet again and the possibility's are endless.

I always hoped that this series would never end they are such awesome books that you just cant help but fall in love with them. I am so happy I have read them all. So don't be shy go get your copy today and stop wondering about what if and actually read them.
Well done Isabella white and thank you for taking our imaginations to so many places that we can only dream about.

I received an ARC of this book and offered to share my thoughts on it. First off, let me start by saying it is genius to provide many alternatives to the same book. Everyone has read that story that they wish they could rewrite the ending to turn out the way they saw in their mind. This provides that. What if is answered....brilliant! Now if you haven't read the other book, this could get really confusing I can imagine, and so it is something to consider. However, I loved it and it kept me engrossed in the story and I didn't want to put it down.

Heartache and all here we go with what happens if. What if Jake does find Holly and Jamie, before she gets big and he gets to experience her childhood instead of meeting her when she was almost eight years old. She is so angry and depressed it is a good thing that Jake and his father Gus finds them because his family was their to help with the loving on Jamie while Holly couldn't. It was good to see how you got them back together in the end. Both of them loving each other but Jake having to suffer the brunt of all the anger and rage because of what his mother Mara did. I like reading about them again but I kinda liked the series better.

You must read the first book in the series to understand this book. It is an alternate ending to the first book. What if? It's a question we ask ourselves all of the time. What if I had said something? What if I had never gone in the first place? The author takes the reader on a journey exploring what might have happened if something changed. I admire writers who take a chance. She wrote an amazing book in the first place, but then to take it one step further and turn it on its ear, the result was intriguing, emotional and downright amazing.

What if? It's a question we ask ourselves on a regular basis and now it's asked of Holly and Jake. In this version Holly makes the call to Jake. When it all comes out Jake finds out his mother's part Jake finally gets out from under her claws. Jake now has to work to get Holly's trust but it's gonna take some serious work. It's a great alternative ending still filled with angst and pain. Plenty of laughs thanks to Janet, Tracy and Rob. Loved it

I enjoyed this story. This book is a new take on what could have happened between Holly and Jake if they had made different choices. I have not had a chance to read the first story and I look forward to trying the original series out. The characters Jake and Holly, as well as Jane and Charles, are very intriguing characters. I enjoyed taking this journey with them and I look forward to reading more great book by this author.

This story showed love conquer all things. Jake n holly went through so much drama and pain it not funny. Mara is so evil, glad Jake cut her out their lives... Love how family sticking together was a main scene in this story, and Jane finding love only thing was missing was here reaching out to meatballs . Will definitely re read this story of was that good (spoiler alert)

A book about a man who is having a baby with his wife and then she disappears and can;t be found.
Can he find her and fix their relationship and get To know his own child?

A amazingly well written box with great characters.

This is an alternative ending to Imperfect Love. What a great idea to give the story another version. Read Imperfect Love first or you will be confused.

I've read "Imperfect Love" and I hated it. which is why I wouldn't read the rest of the series. I hate series that continue while the characters make the same mistake over and over and are so self absorbed they risk their children because of their pride.

Fatality I loved because in her grief Holly called Jake. Because of Jake's love for her and the fear for his child, he finds Holly. To do what's best for Holly and his daughter, He finds ways to make Holly and him to be a partnership.

Great alternate version

I much preferred the alternate version. Original 4ever series particularly in the last book had way too many medical problems to consider it even realistic.

What if’s can happen

I do enjoy the what if stories which shows various different ways in which Jake and Holly find each other again. Fatality happens just after Romy died, and it shows how two people that are destined to be together, will always be, even in unexpected ways.
