Allison's Review: 
 Unexpected Fate by Harper Sloan is the first book in the Hope Town series and it was the first book by this author that I have read. It is a spin off of the Corps Security series - Axel, Cage, Beck etc. It's about the destined to happen romance between Cohen Cage, a wonderfully dirty talking spec ops soldier and Axel's (Corps Security) daughter Dani. Cohen and Dani have known each other since they were children but due to their age difference, Cohen has been waiting for Dani to come of age before really pursuing her. Just as they finally begin a relationship, it's time for him to deploy and they are separated for several months. While Cohen is away A LOT happens and when he returns home he learns some disturbing news and is in for quite a shock. 
 This book introduces many of the grown children from the characters in the Corp Security series. I can't wait for the next books in this series to learn more about all of these other characters. I am certainly going to read Axel - he is an alpha male to the nth degree - it was laugh out loud crazy how overprotective he was of Dani so his book has to be a riot! 
 I loved my first foray into Harper Sloan's books and I am eager for more!
