๐ ๐๐ฒ๐ป๐ฟ๐ฒ: Romantic Suspense
๐ ๐ง๐ฟ๐ผ๐ฝ๐ฒ๐: Grumpy/sunshine, brotherโs best friend, age gap, small town, touch her and die, found family.
๐ ๐ฆ๐๐ป๐ผ๐ฝ๐๐ถ๐: Rho is finally returning to her familyโs property, determined to rehab the old Victorian after the fire that killed her parents and sister. While she fights the shadows of her past, sheโs also at odds with the broody fire restoration specialist - former FBI profiler Anson, who has a damaging past of his own.
๐ ๐ฅ๐ฒ๐๐ถ๐ฒ๐: I first picked up Catherine Cowles in her Lost & Found series, which I absolutely flew through. She hit my sweet spot - about 350 pages, suspense plot that keeps me moving, solid spice and heroes that are always a tad big possessive. So when I saw she was starting a fresh series, you better believe I was in it.
Fragile Sanctuary was the first in the Sparrow Falls series - and beyond just being a solid book, it set up a series that I am absolutely chomping at the bit for. Found family centered around a group of foster family, each with tragic stories? Yea Iโm definitely in.
Anson and Rhodes kicked it off perfectly. It was an emotional read as each dealt with their grief and trauma, but one that made you root for them to be happy with each other. I donโt know about you, but if someone said โbroody ex-profiler who is broken and hiding in a small town,โ Iโm running to pick it up.
