If you want a book that gives you all of the feels of a grumpy x sunshine, brother best friend and found family romance with a bit of spice, PLUS the edge of your seat thrill of a stalker & a BAU agent in hiding from a serial 🔪, then buckle up baby, because Fragile Sanctuary is that book!
I have been seeing this book all across my feed for a week now. I've never read anything by Catherine before but when a friend told me the MC was basically a Hotch from Criminal Minds, I knew I had to read it. I enjoy Romance and I love Thrillers and Suspense, so why the hell have I never read Romantic Suspense before??? Well, I think I have found my new happy medium now! And I need more books like this!
Rho (Rhodes) and Anson are kindred spirits, pulled together by their recognition of grief and loss from unimaginable circumstances. The undeniable chemistry between the two of them gave me all the feels, as did their furry sidekick, biscuit 🐶.
I want to know everything about this complex group of supporting characters. They each have their own scars from a childhood trauma that landed them in the system, but now grown and bonded closer than any biological family thanks to the nurturing care of Nora and Lolli (who is an absolute firecracker of a grandmother, with her 🍆 diamond art 🤣). Fans of the found family trope will fall in love with this lot.
Shep and his white knight complex have me aching for the next instalment, and without looking into any information about the other books forthcoming in the series, I am already anticipating a Fallon and Kye, and hoping for a Hockey romance with Cope.
FRAGILE SANCTUARY is available on Kindle Unlimited now, however, I actually listened to it on audio over two sessions and thought it was superbly narrated, so highly recommend either format.
