Exactly! Some people say that Sokeefe wouldn't happen because SM didn't write him into book 1 until like the 20th draft, but she didn't have the entire series planned out before she published the first book--she still isn't sure on how many books she'll write! SM thinks about how characters will react to the plot, and goes from there, letting her characters "run the show". If Keefe is the best fit for Sophie (and he is), she's not going to stop him because she wrote him in later than Fitz.
