"""...a story so searing that a reader's heart will actually ache [. . .] Adam W. Jones has done a simply fantastic job in creating a story line that will captivate his readers from the very first page and will keep them reading obsessively until the very last word. His ability to create characters that his readers will relate to, care about, and continue to think about long after the story is done is simply second to none.""-Tracy A. Fischer, (5/5 stars from Readers' Favorite) ""FATE BALL had me hooked from the first page. ""It was a perfect day for a funeral."" This well-written story weaves from past to present, sometimes skipping many years in the telling. Able knows he has found true love at the age of 19, when he meets Ava at a fraternity party. Ava loves him, but there is something else she loves more. This wonderful yet gritty novel is filled with the pain of love and loss. Definitely a read that should be on your list.""-Faye M.
