Publisher's Summary

Author Catherine Cowles brings you an addictive small-town romance series full of protective heroes and suspenseful twists and turns. Wrecked Beginnings contains the first three stand-alone novels in the Wrecked series.

Reckless Memories

I loved him before I knew what the word meant. From skinned knees to first dates and everything in between. But he was never mine to love. I settled for friendship, even though I always wanted more.

That was before. Before he ripped my world apart and didn’t bother sticking around to help me pick up the pieces. I knit every last shred back together all on my own. And I’ve all but forgotten his name.

Now, he’s back, and everything is torn apart once more. But he’s not the only one doing the tearing this time. And there might be no stopping the person who has it out for us both.

Perfect Wreckage

My past taught me to play it safe. To stay far away from handsome men who promised it all. My life was good without them. Stable, secure, predictable.

But one kiss showed me that I’d been playing it safe for far too long. One night and all I wanted was more of his wildfire. One challenge and my carefully constructed walls tumbled down.

Amidst the rubble, I realized there was more to this man than I ever dreamed. When everything fell apart, he showed me what it meant to stay. How to truly live.

But some demons don’t stay buried. The past can come knocking when you least expect. And the life he’s showing me might be shorter than either of us expected....

Wrecked Palace

One night was all it took for everything to change. From college student to guardian in a single breath. My siblings became my world.

No time for date nights or romantic dreams. I traded quiet weekends for sleepless nights. Giving my all to make sure they were cared for.

But Griffin had a brokenness that called to me - one that mirrored my own. Gruff and just a little bit reckless. He was the last thing I needed. But everything I wanted.

Only someone isn’t happy about this new life I’m building. Deciding to set fire to everything I hold close. And when the smoke clears, there might be only ashes left behind....

Fantastic small town romance series

@catherinecowlesauthor is an auto buy author for me. I think she might get a bit sick of my stalker tendencies from me devouring her books the last few months and constant tags 🤣

She makes me get swept up in her small town romances that have a touch of suspense. I find I forever want to visit every town she creates, plus the cafes, restaurants, parks and lakes she so wonderfully describes 😍

These are such comfort reads and are beautiful to listen to on audio. I listened to all 5 of them in just over a week! 😳🤣

Set in the small town of Sutter Lake, we get a variety of tropes in this low angst spicy series.

✨ Friends brother
✨ grumpy x sunshine
✨ heroine in danger
✨ traumatic pasts
✨ opposites attract
✨ marriage of convenience.

These are best read in order and if you love small town suspense, I would absolutely recommend!

Absolutely beautiful stories

l loved all 3 of these books, they all have great story lines and are not overly sexual.
I didn't want each book to end as I had fallen in love with the characters, the mystery of each book was very well written and could easily happen in life.
my favorite was the last book, Wrecked Palace and just wanted more as the characters entered my heart. The narrator's were perfect for these books.
Now to find more from this author!
