About THE FORTUNATE ONES
At Twin Oaks Country Club, there are the fortunate ones, and then there are the rest of us: the waiters, the caddies, the valets, and in my case, the cabana girls. Most days, I’m poolside in a pleated skirt, dishing out margaritas to tycoons and titans. It’s not exactly my dream job, but it does come with one perk…
James Ashwood.
He’s my silver lining in a custom black suit.
Besides being a legacy member at the club, he’s a tech mogul and Austin’s most eligible bachelor. Oh, and those dimples? Yeah, they make my stomach dip too.
On good days, I catch his sleek Porsche winding down the tree-lined drive. On better days, I steal a glimpse of his handsome profile as we pass in the hall. And on the absolute best day, I find him alone at the bar, looking for company.
“Come have a seat.”
Those four little words set me down a path I never could have imagined. Private planes, penthouse suites, and temptations around every corner make it impossible to keep my distance. His world feels decadent and wild—but overindulgence comes with a cost. Every kiss comes with strings. Every erotic encounter is a promise I’m not ready to keep.
When I pump the brakes, he hits the gas. James doesn’t want to go slow—he wants a commitment.
And the thing about the fortunate ones?
They’re used to getting what they want.

“I missed you today,” he says, his heated gaze lingering on my body. I step back, and he follows. He looks like he’s cornering his prey. “Apparently not enough to make it to dinner,” I point out icily. “I called the restaurant and told them I’d be late. Didn’t they tell you?” I cross my arms and glance away. “Brooke.” He steps closer and gently lifts my chin, forcing me to look back at him. “Fight with me tomorrow.” I narrow my eyes, angry with him for shelving this discussion so casually. To him, it doesn’t matter that I sat in that restaurant alone, looking like a fool for nearly two hours. He’s brushing off my anger, stepping closer and forcing his way past my defenses. “I think I’d like to talk about it now.” I catch the beginning of a smirk just before he leans in to kiss my cheek. “Are you sure there isn’t anything you’d rather be doing right now?” He uncrosses my arms and brings them up over his shoulders then steps closer, towering over me. My arms tighten around his neck, but still, I turn away, keeping my mouth from him. His breath hits my neck and he pulls me taut against his hard body, growing more impatient with every moment I try to resist. “Brooke,” he whispers huskily. My eyes flutter closed as he bends and presses a kiss to my cheek, my chin, then lower, tipping my head back so he can reach the smooth recess at the nape of my neck. I shiver and he groans, obviously aware of what his touch is doing to me.
Review
The Fortunate Ones, like all other R.S. Grey books I've read, pulled me in from the beginning pages. Drawing me into the characters and their lives and leading me on a journey with them. A journey full of laughs, swoons, and so much more.
James and Brooke couldn't be further apart, they come from different worlds - He a rich legacy member of the country club and she a hard working woman at the country club. Everyone notices James and everyone talks about him - whether its true or not they all have an opinion and Brooke hears it all day in and day out - and then one night James asks her to sit down with him.
Their story isn't smooth sailing, though there were moments that seemed that way. Instead their journey took me on an emotional roller coaster, from laughs, to tears, to hurt, to a strong desire to help them whip things in to shape. I was hooked on this characters and desperate to see them figure things out and find their happy together.
