Kirjaudu LibraryThingiin nähdäksesi, pidätkö tästä kirjasta vai et. Ei tämänhetkisiä Keskustelu-viestiketjuja tästä kirjasta. This book is a big NO for me. The synopsis seems decent, but the writing style just does not mesh with me at all. And the characters are so bland and BORING. Basically, I read the first few chapters, where there was complete instalove (along with the "this guy is a stranger to me but we just had the best sex of my life so we are MEANT to be together" trope, which I almost ALWAYS hate, and this book is no exception), said "fuck it," and moved onto another book to read.

Chain of Fate: Book One Jason Grant runs his own IT business from home, owns his own home, and has the best friend he could imagine. What he doesn't have, or believe he will ever have, is love. When Jason catches a glimpse of his new neighbor on moving day, his libido ignites and his fascination in piqued. He even manages to concoct an excuse to go over and meet the man who makes him hope and want for more than he has in years. Keith Skyler is a shifter in a world where his kind is known only to a few, but they don't often mix and they never mate. Keith has been hoping for a mate since before he can remember, but gay lynx don't have true mates. As far as he knows, they don't have mates at all. However, while moving his little family across Seattle-and away from their tribe-his reality tips and spins more than he thought possible. When these two men meet over a dish of five-cheese broccoli-noodle casserole, sparks fly. Who knew a welcome-to-the-neighborhood gift could give both of them their chance at love?

Jason is an orderly kind of guy who likes his peace and quiet. He works from home, but when a new neighbor moves in next door, his interest is piqued and he decides to take matters into his own hands. Soon he has his hands full with not only a very hot man who is extremely interested in him, but also with more revelations than he can handle. When his best friend also turns out to be not quite human, Jason is shocked. But he is also a very practical guy and there is some family history involving shifters… so his recovery is swift, and he jumps right in. Nobody is going to leave the human behind if Jason has anything to say about it!
Keith hates what his father is doing, how bigoted he is, never mind that he is the alpha. Keith has known he is gay for years, but has never revealed it to his father. He’s been told gay shifters don’t have mates, so when he finds out that Jason, his new neighbor, is also his mate, Keith is stunned. His urge to claim Jason is huge, but he realizes he has to be careful. Only very few humans know that shifters exist, and he has no idea how Jason will react. When an accident reveals his identity, Jason is shocked, but he gets over it surprisingly fast. Keith is lucky to have him by his side - what follows isn’t easy and standing up to his father requires all the support Keith can get.
While some of the concepts the author uses are not new (the half shift being more powerful than the full shift and the shifter council in charge of all tribes, for example), what made this story come alive for me were the characters. And not just Jason and Keith, but Keith’s sister and her son, and Jason’s best friend Sasha, to name just a few. They filled this novel with life and humor that made me laugh more than once. And the love that develops between Jason and Keith may have been triggered by the mating pull and a good dose of insta-lust, but it quickly develops into more, not least because the two men clearly relate to each other on more than a physical level.
If you like shifter stories with fated mates and a tyrannical father who wants to stop them from bonding no matter the cost, if you enjoy watching two men struggle with their emerging feeling while having to fight for the right t be together, and if you’re looking for an easy read that is as entertaining as it is hot, then you will probably like this novel.
