About this listen

He spent a lifetime trying to escape his dark past…but to save her, he’ll wade back into the shadows.

Braedyn Winslow never expected to return to Starlight Grove—the town that took everything from her. Not after her best friend, the one who’d sacrificed so much for her, vanished without a trace. But with a young son to raise and a past that won’t stay buried, Brae is back…and determined to uncover the truth.

She just didn’t count on the brooding, reclusive mountain man living next door.

Dex Archer is the stuff of local legend—silent, rugged, and surrounded by whispers of his and his brothers’ violent father. But Brae sees through the scowl and his parentage to the man beneath: fiercely loyal, unexpectedly kind…and just dangerous enough to protect her when someone starts warning her off her search.

The closer she gets to the truth, the harder it is to stay away from Dex. And as things get more perilous, Brae realizes the only person she can rely on is the one man who swore never to trust again.

Only someone isn’t happy that Brae has been digging, and they’ll do anything to stop her. But Dex? He’ll do anything to save her, even slip back into the dark....

I am quickly become a very big fan of Catherine Cowles!! I loved All the missing pieces and this latest had a lot of the same vibes but a whole new family of brothers dealing with different personal traumas/demons imparted by their dead serial killer father and missing mother.

Middle brother, Dex, falls for new to town single mom, Braedyn when they become accidental neighbors and team up in the search for her missing friend, Nova. The search and rescue dog plot, the nicknames (Buttercup (him), Hellion (her)), the fun references to characters in previous books and the quirky brothers with their hilarious group texts really made this for me.

It was also EXCELLENT on audio with a full cast. A great balance of romance, suspense and drama and I can't wait for more in the series.

Small town romantic suspense at its best!

I’m in love with all the brothers. Can’t wait for Orion’s book but I have a funny feeling it will be the last one 🤣

Catherine never disappoints

There’s nothing better than the start of a new series, with a whole
new cast of characters! Starlight Grove is here, and I’m already in love with all of the Archer boys!!

Dex & Braedyn were a perfect couple to start the series. The way their guarded hearts melted for each other was so sweet, and seeing the fiercely independent, single mama, finally get to feel protected, was perfection!

As always, I was shocked & surprised by all of the twists and turns, even when I thought I knew what was coming!! If you love hilarious sibling chats, fabulous found family, and an amazing balance of romance & suspense, this is the book for you.

The full cast audiobook is fantastic!! Honestly, like a movie for your ears. All of your favourite narrators, with fabulous emotion and chemistry!

The start of a new small town era!

Dani’s review:
“Never back down, never give up.”

@catherinecowlesauthor … WOW. JUST WOW. I needed this book and the messages it delivered. The empowering reminder of how our bodies change through motherhood (stretch marks = phoenix wings?! hell yes!!!!), the strength in taking life into your own hands when things don’t go your way, and the fierce belief in never giving up on someone you love—it all hit so deeply.

Brae and Owen’s relationship was everything I needed as a mom. The suspense had me on my toes THE ENTIRE TIME. And now? I need Mav & Aster’s story, Kol & Nova’s story, and I am desperately begging for Orion’s. 🙌

EMPOWERING MAMAS!
