Far From Destined: A Contemporary Romantic Suspense

Carrie Ann Ryan

Oct 2020 · Promise Me Book 3 · Carrie Ann Ryan

About this ebook

New York Times and USA Today bestselling author Carrie Ann Ryan continues her sexy new contemporary stand-alone series with a broken heart and the shattered soul that can heal them both.

Macon Brady remembers every moment he lay on the ground, a bullet in his chest, his life bleeding out with each pulse. Yet his nightmares aren’t the only thing keeping him up at night.

Dakota Bristol left her ex with nothing but the clothes on her back and her child in her arms. She’s been hurt before and wants nothing to do with the shadows in Macon’s eyes. The problem? Her son loves him, and the more time she spends with the man, the more she’s afraid she’ll come to love him just as much.

Danger always comes back to haunt those who run. It was a lesson Dakota learned before. Now, it might be the man she refuses to fall for who makes the greatest sacrifice of all.

**There is a bonus epilogue exclusively in the audio and ebook editions!**

Ratings and reviews

This is an action packed story with lots of intrigue and as always heaps of emotion. Macon and Dakota are both trying to overcome past trauma and they seem to hate each other but they really are a great couple. Joshua is an added bonus, he is cute and seems to always say just the right thing to make the adults squirm. The epilogue left me wanting more.

The story I've been waiting for since this series started! And it didn't disappoint! Both Macon and Dakota are surviving life. Neither really living, until a blind date blindsided them. All I could think was, Finally! Macon is absolutely adorable with Dakota's son, and I was very happy when she didn't fight the relationship as hard as I expected her to. Thank the gods for small favors🤣. Great story!!

This is the third book in the Promise Me Series, an interconnected standalone stories, with characters intertwined. This Series is part of the Montgomery World. Macon and Dakota's story is sweet and sexy, with a little suspense. Dakota is a beautiful single Mom, strong, independent, and determined. Macon is handsome, caring and protective. They both had a difficult past. Dakota's son is cute! The supporting characters are wonderful, and I like the friendship in this Series. I loved it! I highly recommend this Series. Looking forward to read the next book in the Series, From Our First.
