SMALL TOWN ROMANCE ALERT!! A new-to-me series (that one of my favorite authors – Devney Perry – is loving) and I HAD to investigate!! This one sounds heartwarming and right up our emotional alley! Rugged cops, and the women starting over in a new place… YES PLEASE!! AND!! Book #2 is up for preorder. 😀
Kathy: I just read Beautifully Broken Pieces (Sutter Lake Series) by Catherine Cowles. It was my first book that I have read by her. I definitely would recommend it! I hate comparing another author to another but if you like Devney Perry, you will enjoy this book.
R. Renee: Thanks Kathy!! I love Devney Perry’s writing style but her heroes are too alpha for me. I’ll definitely check out Cowles!
The author says:
They are standalones, but interconnected, so I always recommend reading in order to not be spoiled, but you could pick any book up and not be confused at all!
About book #1:
A woman who’s lost everything. Taylor is looking for peace and quiet away from the memories of all she’s lost. A small mountain town where no one knows her seems like the perfect escape.
A man battling the ghosts of his past. Walker loves his life just the way it is. His town, his family, his brothers in blue. Everything simple and easy–until a chance encounter changes it all.
When Taylor’s solitude is interrupted by the rugged cop, they find that the very thing they were avoiding might be just what they both need. As their iron wills clash and passion flares…a killer lurks.
And you never know who might be caught in the crosshairs.

HE'S SEEN THE DARKER SIDE OF FAME...
"...She’s on the run… Tessa has finally found a safe haven in Sutter Lake, hiding in plain sight—just as long as no one asks too many questions.
He can’t escape… Liam knows better than anyone how one wrong word, a single whisper can ruin a life. After seeing the darker side of fame, he's desperate to retreat and find his voice again.
Two people from opposite worlds, brought together by a connection neither expected..."
THEY'VE BEEN FRIENDS FOREVER BUT SOMEBODY IS WATCHING HER...
"...He’s always been her protector. Tuck has looked out for Jensen since the day she was born. As his best friend’s little sister, he’s tried to keep her firmly in the friend category. But she’s always been more.
All it takes is one moment of weakness to send Tuck’s fiercely guarded walls crumbling to the ground. As a new fire burns between them, someone watches. Someone who doesn’t like the new life Jensen’s building for herself..."
SHE'S TRYING TO REBUILD HER LIFE...
"...Kennedy is doing all she can to escape, to prove that she’s not the monster her father was. A simple life of peace and service is all she needs.
A man haunted by a past he can’t forget. Cain has buried his demons under layers of control and success. The only thing he needs is his company and his solitude. Certainly not a woman with captivating green eyes filled with ghosts so similar to his own.
He’s a reminder of the life she’s left behind. And she’s a threat to his tightly guarded control..."
SHE KEEPS EVERYONE AT A DISTANCE...
She’s hiding secrets.
For Anna, keeping her deepest scars hidden from the world has always been a necessity—from the bruises of her childhood to the mistake that nearly cost her everything. To keep herself safe, she must keep everyone around her at a distance—especially the man who has tempted her since the moment they met.
His demons are taunting him.
