Destiny Collides Past and Present (The Manx Cat Guardians #3) by J.P. Sayle








Blurb

On the worst day of Stuart Wilson’s life he has a chance encounter with a stranger on a street corner. He finds himself inexplicably drawn from the second their eyes connected. Over the following decade he has never forgotten the brief encounter, or the eyes that have haunted his dreams.
Finding his life has stalled, though successful and financially independent, Stuart feels his life is sadly lacking that one thing everyone wants, love. Making a decision to change, Stuart uproots himself from his life. On the recommendation of a friend he moves to a small island in the Irish Sea, where Stuart’s life takes several unexpected turns and twists when he offers to help his new boss.

Joe King has it all, or so it appeared, until he made a wrong choice which has left him reeling both emotionally and physically. Devastated by the turn of events he seeks refuge with his friend hoping to find some peace and quiet to lick his wounds. What he finds is an unexpected connection to his past that he struggles to accept. The present situation is hindered by a past he wants to escape that will not let go.

Will they find the true happiness Stuart believes can be theirs? Or will the threat from Joe’s past take away what Joe is only starting to realise could be his future, Stuart.

Guardian cats walk this earth, there to protect—if you are fortunate enough to be blessed by the fates. Princess is one such cat. Having found herself in trouble for breaking the rules, Princess believes that being paired with Stuart Wilson as his guardian is her penance. Unbeknown to her that is not the case.
Things turn ugly when Princess steps in to protect Stuart putting her own life at risk causing her new arch enemy Maximillian, an ancient guardian cat to make a decision that has far reaching consequences for them both. Will she accept or fight the changes, only time will tell.

Review 
My Rating - 4 Stars!


Destiny Collides Past and Present is the 3rd book in the Manx Cat Guardians series by JP Sayle. It's creative and interesting with two wonderful main characters.

I absolutely adore Stuart and Joe. Both men have intriguing backgrounds, and it's great seeing how well they come together. Joe's part is front and foremost, as his ex was abusive, leaving him scared and unable to commit, as well as fearful that his ex will find him. 

The road for these two is not an easy one, but it's totally worth it. They're both survivors who desperately need someone to love and care for them. 

Of course there's Princess, and oh man, I love Princess. She's the guardian cat who's watching out for Stuart, and she's a sassy and fun girl.

With undeniable chemistry, there's some amazing sex scenes. The author really knows how to steam up the pages.

My only complaint is the writing style. JP Sayle is a fantastic writer, with spectacular ideas. However, this writing style isn't my favorite. Full of extreme detail, I prefer less description and a faster pace. But, I know many do love this writing style. That is just my issue.

That said, I still really enjoy Destiny Collides Past and Present, for it's outstanding characters, as well as plenty of humor, and a refreshing storyline. There's action, suspense, sex, and romance. It's a slow burn romance entwined with an emotional ride.
