SHATTERED SEA | Catherine Cowles




The last thing she expected was to fall in love with Hollywood royalty.

Shattered Sea, a passionate and heartfelt contemporary romance featuring a Hollywood hero and a small-town heroine from USA Today bestselling author Catherine Cowles, is now available!


I’ve known every kind of pain. Of the heart. Of the body. Of the soul. All I want now is the freedom that comes from making my art. The last thing I expected was Hollywood royalty to waltz into my gallery in a small town in the middle of nowhere and see me. A man like Boden Cavanaugh shouldn’t understand me. Shouldn’t be able to soothe my most ragged edges. Even worse, he makes me want the one thing I can’t have. Him. All it takes is one spark, and friendship catches flame. But as our attraction burns bright, there are forces desperate to send us back into the darkness. And they’ve already killed before…


My Thoughts:


Although this can be read as a standalone, I HIGHLY recommend reading the first three in the series to get the full effect of the location, characters, and the building of suspense, along with the steamy romances!


Laiken is such a breath of fresh air, even with her internal and external wounds. Through Catherine's words, I could feel the pain, the big heart, and sweetness within this woman. Capturing her own pain through art was genius and brought me to tears several times. I loved her ability to adapt and care for herself, although it was nice to see her let some of the wall down for Boden to climb aboard.


Boden is unlike any movie star I've ever known -- and I love it. He's very down to earth, real, and deep. He's experienced a lot of heartache and pain of his own. Like Laiken, some of that pain has closed him off, but when the soul finds its missing piece, things align, blossoming into something beautiful.


Together, their healing is absolutely breathtaking. The tragedy they experience is twisted up to the point where my chin literally hit my chest when all was revealed. On top of the beautiful read, what a gorgeous cover! As I've previously said for the first three books of the series, things keep getting better and better in Wolf Gap.


I received a complimentary ARC for reviewing purposes. All opinions are my own!




Fall in love today!
