When Izzy Astor gets on a plane to go home, she isn’t expecting much. It’s the usual holiday travel experience: busy, crowded, stressful. 

Then she spots her seatmate, who is anything but ordinary. Nate Phelan sports dark hair, blue eyes, and a deliciously rugged charm that Izzy can’t resist. Their connection is undeniable. Izzy never believed in destiny before, but she does now. 

Just ninety seconds after takeoff, their plane goes down in the Missouri River. 

Their lives change. They change. Nate goes on to a career in the military while Izzy finds her way into politics. Despite a few chance encounters over the years, the timing never feels right.
Then comes a high-stakes reunion in Afghanistan, where Nate is tasked with protecting Izzy’s life.
He’ll do anything to keep her safe. And everything to win her heart.

It didn’t take long to fall in love with this story. I devoured this book. 

In The Likely Event was the fourth book that I have read by Rebecca Yarros; it’s safe to say that she became one of my favorites. I love the way that she creates the connection between the reader and the characters. I knew there was no way I could imagine how Izzy and Nate were feeling; while reading their story, I could. I felt their fear, but I also felt their love and Izzy’s confusion, along with Nate’s frustration. Every page had me craving for me; wanting to know what was in store for Izzy and Nate next. 

I loved the slow-burning romance between Izzy and Nate. I think I was rooting for the two of them from the moment that they met. I saw something special between the two of them, and the way Nate was with Izzy, it was clear that he fell for her before she did. I liked that the dual perspectives were written from both characters' points of view and across different timelines. It was clear how much Nate still loved her. I was wondering if the two of them would find a way to one another. The chemistry between the two of them was incredible, to the point where you didn’t want to put the book down. 

One of my favorite things about Rebecca Yarros's books is the way she portrays her characters and their emotions. I adored Izzy and Nate; although there were times when I got frustrated with the two of them. Although I liked both of characters, but I felt as if I could connect with Izzy more. In The Likely Event you won’t fall in love with only the main characters but also the side characters in the story. It’s an emotional book but it’s worth it every page.
