Publisher's summary

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.

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.

Absolutely amazing!!

The narrators were perfect! The storyline was amazing! It was heartbreaking and suspenseful but also heartwarming and had me loving every bit of it!!

Beautiful story🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

Good read. Great job Catherine Cowles. Narrators were exceptional. Mason and Anna’s love story was one of the best of this series.

Good book

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

Great end to the series!

Beautifully Broken Redemption is the 5th and final book in the Sutter Lake series. This could be read as a stand alone but is more fun read in series order. Wow! Wonderful audio! Maxine Mitchell and Aaron Sherlock deliver stellar performances! Honestly, this was probably my favorite. It seriously pulled on my heartstrings. Anna helps run Hope House in Sutter Lake, a homeless shelter that she once called home after a few bad choices in her youth. Mason volunteers at Hope House and has always been fascinated by Anna but Anna won’t give him the time of day. Mason is friends with Kennedy and Cain (from book #4) which means Anna sees more of Mason than she'd like. Tragedy strikes and Anna needs Mason's help to protect her family. I loved how strong and brave Anna is. I was so happy for her to finally have a HEA. It was also fun to get glimpses of the couples from the previous 4 books. I love a small town series and Cowles has perfected the art of writing them. I think I have finally finished her backlist. I can’t wait for the next Whispers of You installment. Please check trigger warnings

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.

Beautifully Romantic

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

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!!!

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!

Love this Marriage of Convenience & Perfect End

“I had some bone-deep knowledge that Anna was made to be mine, and I was made to be hers.” Review: This is book 5 in the Sutter Lake series. We met Anna in Beautifully Broken Control and I adored her! So excited that she gets to tell her story now. Anna has been betrayed by those she loved in the past. She is the head of Hope House and loves every minute of it. Mason is the VP of Halo, a security company that Cain started. He volunteers at Hope House regularly. Mason met Anna while volunteering at Hope House and has always been drawn to her. It was clear she kept people at a distance, so he tried to slowly become her friend. When tragedy strikes, Mason steps in to help Anna in any way that he can. My heart broke for Anna and the lack of support she had from the ones she should be able to count on the most. She is so strong and determined though and I connected with her on so many levels. I was cheering her on. Mason was amazing with Justin and Lyla. He melted my heart for sure. I love how strong and selfless Mason was when it came to Anna, no matter who was involved. I laughed, I cried and I definitely swooned over Mason. He is the perfect man to help Anna and be there for her in every way. I loved their relationship and how everything worked out. I loved getting to catch up with everyone from Sutter Lake. This really was the perfect ending to the series. I am going to miss them all! Don't miss this one!

So good

I enjoyed this book great story and I loved the characters the whole series was so good I highly recommend it, the narrators did a great job

Loved it. Fantastic addition to the series.

Fantastic audio, I loved the book and now this audio version has done Catherine proud with the narrators emotions at times heartbreaking.

I absolutely love this series and Beautifully Broken Redemption is a welcomed addition.

I was captivated from the first pages, I was still reading at 3am and had to force myself to put it down.

Mason and Anna’s story was tragic and oh so beautiful. Catherine certainly knows how to keep us entranced and entertained throughout.

Both Anna and Mason have come from tragic pasts, both with circumstances which were beyond there control and left them with some deep scars.

But for Anna things are about to get so much worse than she could have ever imagined.

Mason steps up when he’s needed most, he is just an amazing character, totally swoon worthy.

This covered all the bases for me with romance, suspense, tragedy, heartache and so much love.

What a story this was and to be back with all the guys from Sutter Lake was nostalgic.
