Adjournment (Fate #1) Emersyn Vallis

Its taken me ages to finish this series. It been a horrendously busy time at work recently and my head has just not been it the game, plus I was ill :( sad time people, sad times!

Anyway I have been approached by the authors team for me to read and review this series. As always I have to tell you I was given this series in exchange for my honest review yada yada.

Adjournment



When I chose to leave home I knew what I was giving up. I knew I was walking away from life as I knew it and the plans that we had made. 


We…us…him and I… 

It’s funny to think of him in a different light…or life. 

That’s what it feels like, a lifetime ago. 
But I’m a different person now. I have rules and goals. And if it wasn’t for my parents' vow renewal I would have successfully evaded him for the rest of my life. This is not by choice, I can tell you that. 
I just need to focus and remember the key to this weekend is avoidance…and alcohol. But if anyone can pull that off it’s me, Sidney Chandler, queen of avoiding anything that will make me feel. 
It’s just one weekend, right? 
One very long weekend with my family…friends…my sisters and me…together, and our nemeses, the McAllister triplets. 
What could possibly go wrong? 
Everything. 
They say you never forget your first love, now just imagine how hard it is to forget your only. 
This is going to suck.

Hanging Pawns


We all have choices in life… paths to take… roads to follow…. 
It’s on those journeys that fate finds us and takes us where we need to be… Without a second glance we can be taken away from things we know… "people we love" and given a new life... 
One that can change us… save us… 
What would you do if fate dropped you at a crossroads? Would you go back? Or would you run like hell the other way? 

*Author's Note: This book is told from a different point of view and is said to be more like a prequel to Adjournment. This book will also answer a lot of questions you were left with from Adjournment. Sidney and Simon's story continues in Sacrifice and End Game.  


Sacrifice





For years my life was in a state of Adjournment… 
Fate had constructed a plan to push me away… to save me… 
There was a danger I never knew existed, one I had never sensed. 
My family positioned themselves around me. 
Like Hanging Pawns, they shielded me from it and I lived blissfully unaware… until now. 
Now, I know there are rules to this game... 
Sacrifices to be made in order to get to End Game. 
What would I Sacrifice for one more moment... one last look? Touch? Kiss? 
Everything... 









End Game



Once upon time, there were two girls living their lives completely unaware of one another and the dangerous game they had been placed in…
Until Fate found them…
Fate saved them, made them stronger & with time, Fate brought them together to become friends rather than enemies…
Until a cruel Queen made her move, threatened the Knight,
And an innocent Pawn was sacrificed.
Now the game is in our hands…
Fate might have set us up for this… but we control the moves now…
And we have our own plan.
Revenge.

 Rachel's Review

 So I really struggled through the first book. I didn't like the format it was written in at all. But I perseverred with it and I'm really glad I did. 

These books were a real mixture of romantic comedy, tense situations and intrigue. 

I'd never heard of the author before but that's why I love being approached by authors and street teams, so I can newness in my life :-) I'm so glad I gave Emersyn a chance and agreed to review. 

Give the series a chance. Feel confused by the first book but be glad the second book is already out to get some answers, then move on through books 3 and 4 to complete your journey. 

Rachel's Rating

3.5 stars

I liked it in the end but I struggled to get into it.
