Fortuity, the first in the all-new, emotional and romantic Fortuity Duet by Rochelle Paige, is available NOW!
The only kinds of luck I knew were bad and worse...until my life hung in the balance. I finally caught a break in the form of a second chance.
I vowed not to let it go to waste.
To make a difference.
But I didn’t start really living until I met him.
Dillon Montgomery.
My complete opposite—except for our matching tortured souls.
I couldn’t resist him for long.
How could I when his smallest touch made my heart race?
When it felt like we were destined to be together.
But sometimes luck and sorrow are intertwined…
Excerpt:
Dillon
twisted his neck and flashed me an apologetic grin over his shoulder. Unwanted
butterflies swirled in my belly, and I quickly yanked my hands away from his
shoulders and took a step backwards. His eyes flashed with male satisfaction
and his grin grew wider. Determined to ignore the impact he had on me, I
shifted my focus to the students. “Your test date is coming fast, so you’ll
need to squeeze in as much extra study time as you can without neglecting your
regular coursework. Maybe set aside some time during Thanksgiving break when
you don’t have as much homework.”
“Ugh. Studying over break sucks,” one of the girls complained.
“Yeah, but you guys are in the homestretch. This test score is one of the last things you need to get into college. Trust me, it’ll be worth the extra effort.”
“I guess if you could get into college while recovering from a transplant, then the least I can do is a little bit of studying over a holiday break that isn’t even that big of a deal since I don’t have a family to celebrate it with anyway.”
The other kids nodded in agreement, and I snuck a peek at Dillon while everyone finished packing up. His brown eyes were wide with shock. I quickly looked away before he could ask me anything, and focused on saying my goodbyes as the kids all headed out. We both kept quiet—for which I was incredibly grateful—as Dillon helped me clean up the room. When we were back on the road, I turned to him and asked, "Were you really teaching my kids how to count cards?”
His lips tilted up at the edges. “Maybe just a little.”
“It’s a good thing none of them have any money to gamble or else they might learn to enjoy blackjack as much as you do.” His lip tilt turned into a full-fledged grin, and I glared at him. “I don’t know why you’re grinning at me! Look at what your affinity for gambling got you.”
“What?” He pointed at his face. “The black eye?”
“Yeah, for starters.”
His grin grew into a blinding smile. “It was worth it.”
“What? Why?”
“Because it’s the reason I met you.”
Shit. Those damn butterflies took flight in my stomach again

Review by Gia:
Fortuity is an amazing read. It's a heart string pulling, emotional read. Dillon
and Faith are great characters that have gone through some tough
times. At points I wanted to just crawl into the pages and give them a
hug. Faith had a rough childhood and bad luck seemed to always find
her. She is college now and things are looking up. She meets Dillon.
Dillon had a much different childhood then Faith. He does have some
demons to beat too though. These to have great chemistry. Their
relationship starts slow and builds from there. This is part one of
part two so of course there was a cliffhanger. Sometimes I dread
cliffhanger but loved this one, it left me with questions and waiting
for the next one. 5 Amazeballs Stars!
