Beautifully Broken Redemption

Sutter Lake, Book 5

By: Catherine Cowles

Narrated by: Maxine Mitchell, Aaron Shedlock

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.

Mason has done his best to bury the past by achieving more than he ever thought possible. But even with all of his success, his life feels empty.

When tragedy strikes, Anna is left fighting to protect the only family she has left. And Mason will do anything to keep her and her loved ones safe-even if that means the ring of wedding bells.

But as a new spark ignites between them, someone is watching.

And they'll do whatever it takes to snuff out that light for good.

Great Series!

First time reading/listening to any book by Catherine Cowles! Not at all disappointed! Love the narrators too! So many of the audible books would be great if only the authors picked good narrators! I’ve had to stop listening to some before I could even get very for in the story.

So sweet

I wasn’t ready for this book like I thought. I thought I would drag this one out so I didn’t have to say goodbye to sutter lake just yet, but of course it was all consuming like the rest of the series and took me less than a day to eat it up. Sad that this has come to an end, but excited to see where else Catherine takes me

Perfectly Titled, Beautiful story

I loved loved loved this story. Catherine Cowles really does know how to write a beautifully (perfect series title) love story. Anna had a really hard adolescence with her physically abusive father and a mother who turned a blind eye only to be deceived and betrayed by the one person she thought she could count on, her teenage boyfriend. After spending time behind bars for a crime she didn't commit, she begins building a new life. She's let her past go with the exception of her sister, who finally comes around and believes begins to believe that Anna was truly innocent all those years ago. Just when it seems like they'll be able to get back to the sisters they once were, Chelsea, Annas sister, is found dead and thus a custody battle for Chelseas two children, Justin and Lyla, begins. Anna cannot allow her abusive parents to raise her niece and nephew. Enter Mason. He's been crushing on Anna for 2 years (as has she on him) but since she's been playing defense with him the entire time he hasn't really made a move. He's there when Anna gets the news of her sisters death and proves over and over that he's gong to be there for her through it all. With her criminal record and her parents ability to keep their secrets hidden all those years it's not looking good for Anna's case. Mason offers to marry Anna, giving her the stability she'll need to prove she can take care of the children. I loved the way they fell in love with each other and the children truly becoming a family unit.

This book will give you All.The.Feels. You'll love Anna and Mason and the kiddos. You'll cry with this story, laugh and even get extremely angry - I wanted to throat punch Mason's sister, Juliette, on more than one occasion. But overall, I wouldn't change a thing about this book. Catherine Cowles did it again... can't wait to read whatever she comes out with next!

Real Life Emotions

I have loved every book in this series. The writing is so good you feel every emotion right along with the characters as if you are there. Mason and Anna have deep wounds and are scared to let anyone in. What an emotional and suspenseful journey. Fabulous narration.

Sweetness

If you haven't read or listened to this series...what are you waiting for. This is another fantastic story and the only problem is that I "read" it to quickly
Catherine certainly draws you into a story and plops you right down so that you feel like you are right there with them. Also, the narrators for this set are fantastic. Enjoy!!!

Good book

Such a good story. The character interaction is good and the love story is so sweet

Does everyone in this town get kidnapped?

I really enjoyed each book in the series but my god, there’s gotta be something in the water there.

There was a kidnapping in each book in the series. Made it a little predictable, but overall very entertaining and sweet.

Beautifully Romantic

This series and book are worth the credit. Love the romance between Anna and Mason.

Loved being back in Sutter Lake!

Another fantastic romantic suspense by Catherine Cowles. I loved Anna & Mason! the narration was spot on!

Amazing Ending

This book blew me away. I’m literally on cloud nine right now. Anna and Mason’s story had me in a choke hold all the way through. Oh how he loved Anna. What a phenomenal ending to this series. Catherine knocked it out of the park!!

Narration: Once again Maxine and Aaron were phenomenal.
