But what he wasn’t expecting when he booked a cottage in the middle of nowhere Scotland was a cute, awkward brunette, who just wouldn’t stop looking at his ….

So the beginning had a lot of info dumping which to be honest I was not a fan of. Once I powered through I enjoyed the story. Good twist and nice ending.
A quick and easy to read romance novella!
Lily and her fiancée are working as doctors in Africa, until she catches him cheating. As soon as the opportunity arises she’s out of there returning to Scotland. Expecting to find her sister home she is somewhat shocked but nicely surprised by the gorgeous, naked Italian standing in the living room. He is and has quite a nice package, some might say he has it all. Luca has run away from his family and problems to do some thinking. He is more than happy to let Lily distract him. They have some, well lots actually of hot and steamy sex with easy conversation. Will what started out as a fling become something more or will the secrets Luca keeps be too much to overcome.
I loved this novella, it was short and sweet but oh so perfect.
I loved both characters in this book and felt so sorry for them with all there heartbreak and really do think that fate had a plan for these two and it worked.
I loved Lilly she was such a serious, caring and structured character and i loved the way Luca brought out all her insecurities and showed her what it’s like to live life in the moment.
Luca was also a great character he had his secrets and was running away from his life but i also loved how Lilly made him forget his life for a while and he could have fun with her and not have to think about who he was.
Such a great little story and i do love Ja Low’s writing. If your looking for something short, sweet and sexy then you have to read this book
5 Stars for this baby.
I believe in fate and that Luca and Lilly were meant to meet.
They both feel trap in their lives and escaped to find themselves in the same cottage. She’s an English girl, he’s Italian.
The first glimpse of Luca is a mighty fine package, I liked that she blatantly stares. I loved Luca and Lilly together even though they haven’t known each other for very long they do such sweet things for each other that you usually do when you have been dating for awhile.
Lilly introduces him to her world poor Luca gets manhandled by the geriatric of the village so hilarious. She, unfortunately, meets his asshole sister and fiancés.
It’s a truly lovely romantic story, although short I don’t think it was missing anything.
I LOVE THIS BOOK….SHORT, SWEET AND HOT!

FATE’S PLAN is more of a novella, and I read it in one sitting…I couldn’t put it down…No cliffhanger, no waiting for another book to finish the story…..I love that it was written in dual POV, because I didn’t have to guess what the characters were thinking and feeling,,,And I loved both the story of Luca and Lilly and who they were individually ….
JA Low had me invested in the characters and the story immediately…and I love that it is both a sweet love story and SO HOT at the same time!
I’ve loved every book JA Low has written, but FATE’S PLAN is the first stand-alone I’ve read of hers, and I sincerely hope she writes some more little gems like this…

This was a super cute, funny, HOT insta-love quick story. I loved dirty talker Luke. Easily read in one sitting which is a plus. Lily is cute and funny and it was just an overall sweet love story!

Fate’s Plan is a short, sweet and steamy read!
Lilly and Luca have both been burned and in seeking an escape, find fate has other plans in store for them and throws them in each other’s path.
Lilly is sweet, kind, considerate, smart, and funny. She’s a bit of an overachiever, a dedicated and driven doctor. I loved the open, honest and loving relationship she shared with Lauren her younger sister.
Luca is quite the tall, dark and mysterious hero, and boy does he know how to talk dirty.
The chemistry between this pair is intense, the love scenes are both passionate, steamy and full of heat. They are both endearing and fun characters. Their banter is fun and flirtatious, with moments of humor sprinkled throughout.
Fate’s plan is an incredibly enjoyable and fun read, that will leave you with a smile upon your face.
4.5 stars for this unexpectedly delightful novella
Fate’s Plan was a short, fast paced sexy tale of two strangers meeting in the most unlikely of circumstances and falling in love. Lily is a doctor, who’s been out in Kenya for almost two years with her fiance, Rob. They haven’t had much time to connect very often and start growing apart. But when Rob shows his true colors, Lily has two choices. Row about it or brush it under the rug. She chooses to ignore it, and her fiance until she finally gets a chance to get out of her contract early she takes it and leaves Rob behind in the African bush.
She decides to go home to Scotland for Christmas and makes a surprise visit to her sister at their shared cottage in Glen Coe. The surprise is on Lily when she walks into the cottage and finds a hot, sexy as sin and totally naked man in the living room. Even though Lily had a fiance, she’d been bereft of male company for months and can’t help staring!!!
Luca has run from family problems too. He rented the small cottage in the Highlands of Scotland, hiding out in a tiny village hoping no one recognizes him. The last thing he expects is a snow covered angel to appear on his doorstep.
Luca or Luke as he calls himself, and Lily make a great couple. Their chemistry was instantaneous and combustible. There was little drama, just a sexy little tale of two people finding each other allowing fate to take over for once.
If you’re looking for a sweet, sexy short story then look no further. This is the one for you.
This was a fun, easy read. I’ve read and enjoyed books by JA Low in the past, but this is a step away from her usual stories. This is a holiday romance, where a wonderful, giving woman is wronged, and then finds her “prince charming”.
Lilly is a Scottish Doctor who has just come home from Africa, after spending years helping those less fortunate than herself. She arrives at her sister’s home to find a surprise waiting for her that she never could have expected!
Luca is a hot Italian, on Holiday in Scotland, and gives Lilly an unforgettable welcome!
Lilly and Luca are the sweetest couple, both having a recent betrayal that they are getting over. Fate throws them together, but who knows if this will be a holiday romance, or something more?
I totally enjoyed this sweet story! It’s definitely just the thing if you are looking for a quick, hot read.
