Publisher's Synopsis
A Date with Fate is the roller coaster ride of a debut novel by Tracy Ellen, and the first volume in The Adventures of Anabel Axelrod series. Experience action, sex, romance, wit, mystery, mayhem, friends, family, flashbacks, and lots of laughter-all in one wild weekend! Meet Anabel Axelrod...Smart, Sassy, and Sexy! Anabel owns a bookstore in the town she's lived in all her life. She is a girly-girl, she's a control freak, and she is one determined woman. Determined to not fall for love! Meet Luke Drake...Brains, Bad, and Built! Luke is new in town. He is all man, control is his middle name, and he's coolly determined. Determined to win Anabel! Eyes clash, sparks fly, and worlds collide when these two meet, but very quickly the not-too-tall, deliciously dark, definitely not handsome, but intriguingly hot Luke Drake is not Anabel's only worry. Many strange things are happening in the town of Northfield, Minnesota and the blonde bookseller is a magnet for trouble. Anabel's perfectly uncomplicated life is suddenly turned into chaos with the problems of a missing wife, a missing gun, and a homicidal rapist on the loose. Will Anabel learn the hard way that sometimes fate leaves us no choices, some rules are meant to be broken, and a certain mesmerizing complication may be worth the trouble--even if it kills her? Courted by Karma (Vol. II) and In Love by Design (Vol. III) in the ongoing series of The Adventures of Anabel Axelrod are also available for immediate purchase! Author's note: This series contains sexual encounters and language suitable for adults only.
