Story
My body, broken beyond repair. The boy I’d thought was my forever. The life I’d always dreamt of. Now, Holt’s back. And he’s no longer a boy, but a man with shadows in his eyes and demons haunting him. He says he’s here to make things right. To get back a little bit of all we’ve lost. And he doesn’t show any signs of leaving the small town that has been my refuge. As stolen moments turn to days, Holt’s around every corner.

Story
Football star. Single dad. And once, a long time ago, mine. I’ve spent the better part of a decade forgetting Ford Ellis. If he had just stayed away from Montana, I might have erased the memory of his striking blue eyes and rugged smile forever. Avoiding him was easy when the only place I saw his face was on ESPN—and a remote control could fix that problem.

Story
Someone is stalking Audrey Young. And she has no idea why. Complicating matters is her landlord and new neighbor, Josiah Haven. She doesn’t usually go for the big, surly lumberjack type. But there’s something about that broody man. He intimidates her a little, but she kind of likes it. She could totally handle the mess that is her life, except the strange feeling of being watched is just the beginning. Next thing Audrey knows, she’s a target, and she doesn’t know who’s behind it or why. For Josiah Haven, none of that makes her his problem.

But mostly the kind of wild that comes with wanting your best friend’s little sister and knowing you can’t have her. After living in the city, she comes blasting back into Rose Hill like a storm. Beautiful, messy, and chaotic. And one wide-eyed desperate plea for a job is all it takes for me to hire her.

Demi Crawford was Magnolia Falls royalty. I was the boxer from the wrong side of the tracks. She was the epitome of everything good, while I was broody and rebellious. We couldn’t be more different. Her family was enemy number one which made her guilty by association. I despised her before I even knew her. It was easier that way. But now she’d moved in next door to me, and she was everywhere I turned. I couldn’t avoid her no matter how hard I tried. She was beautiful and honest and sweet. Everything I knew I shouldn’t want. Shouldn’t need.

When you've been told your whole life that something is sinful, you have two options. Avoid it like the plague, like it has the power to destroy all that is good and pure. Or become as fixated upon it as Eve was upon that apple. I'm sick of the push-pull of terror and temptation. It's tearing me apart. I just want a bite of the apple. More than a bite. I want to devour it. Have its juices spill from my lips. And by apple, I, of course, mean sex.

He proposed . . . and I said yes. Normally a jovial occasion for a couple in love, but this proposal has a very different feel. Because the man that I'll be calling my husband blew into town with one thing on his mind . . . to make my life a living nightmare. So why did I say yes? Well, because we both need something from each other. Namely, I want the farm land he currently owns, and he needs a wife in order to inherit his family cabin in his grandfather’s will. So as he so eloquently put it, my hand, for his land.

Publisher's Summary
The scowl should’ve been my first clue to stay far away from Anson Hunt. The sexy smirk and the fact that he’s my brother’s best friend? Reasons two and three. Not to mention, he’s the new contractor working on my house.
He’s everything I’m not: grumpy, rude, and more than a little attached to his solitude. It doesn’t matter how many times I try to kill him with kindness; the man simply won’t crack. Until he sees me shatter. Because when my world comes crashing down around me, Anson is the one catching me as I fall. And as so-called accidents start plaguing every part of my life, it’s Anson who steps in to keep me safe.
As he does, I can’t help but feel a flicker of heat. And it only takes a single moment for that spark to ignite into flames, engulfing us both. But Anson’s a man with secrets, and they have a price. When they’re revealed, neither of us will make it out unscathed…

perfection!
This is only my second Catherine Cowles book, but I've been meaning to read her books for forever. I knew she would be an author I loved as she gives similar vibes to A.L. Jackson's writing, and she is one of my all time favourite authors.
Fragile Sanctuary did NOT disappoint. It absolutely gave me A.L. Jackson vibes and I am SO here for it.
This book was fantastic. Both Anson and Rhodes have a tragic backstory. They have both experienced significant trauma and while Anson is trying to run and hide from his by not letting anyone in, Rhodes has embraced her new found family and the community with open arms.
I live for a broody grumpy man, and Anson's background gives him SO much depth. I adore that he embraces his "nerdiness" and the way he allowed Rhodes to tear down his walls after never letting anyone in for years was so incredibly heartwarming. I loved how his old world was colliding with his new one and he wasn't just an over protective man without any skill or knowledge to back his behaviour up. He was smart and calculated.
Rhodes was a ray of sunshine, given the significant loss she has experienced. When tragedy struck her family and she was left to live with her best friend's pieced together family, she found a new home and made the best of it. When she was finally ready to face her past as an adult she found she was facing something that ran much deeper than she could have ever imagined.
I had several theories along the way and none of them were correct! This story was perfectly crafted and kept me intrigued the entire way through.
I have always been a huge fan of Andi Arndt and Zachary Webber is one of my favourite male narrators too. They both gave a perfect performance that kept me engage, intrigued and never pulled me out of the story.
Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
