In the Likely Event

When Izzy boards a plane home for the holidays, she's not expecting fate to literally crash into her life—but then she meets Nate, and their undeniable connection feels like destiny itself. Ninety seconds after takeoff, that destiny takes a devastating turn as their plane goes down in the Missouri River, forever linking them in ways neither could have imagined. Over the years, their paths cross in glimpses and near-misses as their lives diverge—Nate into the military, Izzy into politics—but the timing never aligns until a high-stakes reunion in Afghanistan forces them back together. Now Nate has a mission to protect her, but what he really wants is a second chance at the connection that survived impossible odds.
