Delicate Escape

Sparrow Falls, Book 2

De: Catherine Cowles

Narrado por: Teddy Hamilton, Erin Mallon

Trust doesn’t come easily when you’ve been running for as long as I have, which is why moving in with a man I barely know is such a bad idea. Shepard Colson is all golden-boy charm and devastating good looks. But I know what it’s like to be taken in by easy smiles and the promise of forever—I have the scars to prove it.

Only the handsome contractor won’t stop coming by the bakery and prying little truths from my lips—those amber eyes of his seeing far too much. And when all the secrets come crashing down, he’s determined to keep me safe, even if it means moving into my rundown cabin to do it.

Now, Shep isn’t just rebuilding the walls of my home; he’s working his way into my heart. Suddenly, he’s everywhere: shirtless in my garden or in a towel coming out of my bathroom. And my resolve is no match.

Only it’s more than his golden looks. It’s him. The way he watches for my wounds but tells me I’m stronger than anyone he’s ever known. And I can’t help but fall.

But I should’ve known better than to think I could be happy—not when a ghost from my past still has me in his sights. And when he finds me, he’ll do anything to tear my life apart, even if it means ending it for good…

Shep, the local contractor has had his eye on Thea for quite awhile but she keeps him at arms length refusing even the slightest advance. But now she needs his help and begrudgingly allows him on her property. He immediately notices her fear and allows her to set the boundaries.

Then the reason for her fear and cause of her abuse shows up in town.

I highly recommend this book! Shep will be your new favorite book boyfriend!

Great story and narration

Catherine Cowles is a relatively new author to me but what I have read I have enjoyed.

This was a well written and entertaining read that roles the boxes for me. This is
Shepard (Shep) Colson and Thea’s story. There was a good balance of romance and suspense set in Sparrow Falls.

I fell hard for Shep, such a caring, loyal and protective man. I loved how determined he was to keep Thea safe, totally swoon worthy.

The narration by Teddy Hamilton and Erin Mallon brought the romance and suspense to life. Not only are their voices easy to listen too but they did justice to the story that Ms. Cowles wrote.

Great read

It’s never who I think it is. Loved the characters. Excited for Cope and Sutton’s story.

Love it

This audiobook was so good! I absolutely loved Thea and Shep’s story. And the narrators did an amazing job! They brought this story to life and I couldn’t stop listening! What I love about Catherine’s books is that she always keeps us guessing about who the bad person is. I’m loving this series!

Love Shep and Thea!!

Once again, absolute perfection that comes from the magic mind of Catherine Cowles. This is the second book in the Sparrow Falls series and WOW. Shep and Thea's story is just perfect, I loved everything about it. There was the perfect amount of spiciness and suspense that grabs your attention. LOVE, LOVE, LOVE the magic that Catherine weaves in these small-town love stories. I am always so excited to see what she comes up with next. I absolutely fell hard into Shep and Thea's story. So beautiful! Teddy and Erin are always on point with these narrations, absolutely love them together.

Another Banger!

I don’t think I will ever get over reading Catherine’s books! The way she keeps us on our toes until the very end is so good and I will die on this hill!

Shep and Thea were perfection and I can’t wait to see where the rest of this series goes. <3

The Cinnamon Roll We All Need!

Thea and Shep were everything that is good in the world. They both have some struggles and some major past trauma and emotional baggage that has shaped who they are and how they interact with others. They overcome some pretty difficult hurdles in order to be together and when it finally happens, it is MAGIC! Thea was a tough girl for Shep to get through to, but he never gives up on being a support and friend to her no matter what. I love that he meets her where she is and provides her with a safe space to be herself. We black cats need that. ;) Teddy Hamilton and Erin Mallon were wonderful choices for the narration and they embodied Shep and Thea!

Once again, Catherine takes you on a thrill ride you don't see coming!

Incredible

I absolutely loved it! Catherine Cowles is becoming a favorite for me! Shep and Thea are so sweet!

Wow

I love this story. I especially love the twist and turn. I love how Brandon got punished at the end.

Best ever!

Oh Catherine this was such a beautiful story! And as always didn’t see that coming. Can’t wait for the next book in this series. Erin Mallon and Teddy Hamilton were perfect as Thea and Shep!
