Publisher's summary

Beautifully Broken Pieces: 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. Walker loves his life—his town, his family, his brothers in blue. 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.

Beautifully Broken Life: Tessa has finally found a safe haven, hiding in plain sight—as long as no one asks too many questions. 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 an unexpected connection. But the forces they're running from still lurk in the shadows.

Beautifully Broken Spirit: Jensen has shared a special bond with Tuck for as long as she can remember—he's always been her protector. As his best friend's little sister, he's tried to keep her firmly in the friend category. 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.

Tuck and Jensen. childhood friends who discover as adults they need each other as more.


In book 3 of the Sutter Lake series, Forrest Officer, Tracker, and womanizer, Tuck, discovers romantic feelings for his best friend’s little sister he has known all his life. Never believing he was good enough for “Little J” due to his father’s lifestyle and verbal abuse, he stays in the friend zone with Jensen. Until he can’t any longer.

This is another beautifully written and narrated story, a friends to lovers, single mother, with suspense included as in the other Sutter Lake Series books. Tuck not thinking himself worthy after his father’s years of verbal assaults in spite of all the good he does every day, including being a great role model to little Noah, is heartbreaking. Jensen not thinking she could ever trust her emotions after two disastrous relationships, working herself to death to hide her loneliness, is emotionally heart wrenching. They are exactly what the other needs. They just need to recognize that.

It all makes for an absolute must listen.

Sutter Lake is Flawless

These first 3 books of the Sutter Lake series are written and performed to perfection.

I listened to this whole thing in a few day because I didn't want to listen to anything else.

Catherine swept me away. I cried. She writes romantic suspense with a whole lot of heart and a touch of spice perfectly.

She is my new favorite!

Twist and Turns


Book was easy to listen too. The narrator’s were the best. So hard when they are from different countries England, Ireland. So nice to hear clear voices. Story lines in each book were almost the same but enjoyable. They all took a turn and twist. I liked it. I recommend this box set.

LOVED!!

I am a pretty new reader/listener to Catherine Cowles - thanks to my bookclub picking Beautifully Broken Pieces last month. I just could not stop at book one though. Seriously, this series has been amazing and I have enjoyed all 3 listens. Great small-town charm, wonderful characters, a little mystery/suspense/kidnappings, and beautifully written stories. I can't wait to read more of her series soon, I have already started book 4 of this series! This author has joined my one-click list and is one I will highly recommend to others. This is also a great value - getting 3 books for 1 credit,
.
Maxine Mitchell and Aaron Shedlock are amazing narrators and they did such a great job bringing the characters to life and making me feel the emotions of the stories. I felt like I was there in Sutter Lake.
