PERFECT WRECKAGE (Wrecked #2) by CATHERINE COWLES

‘I’d been left in wreckage, broken pieces that would never fit together perfectly again.’

Perfect Wreckage is the second standalone in the Wrecked Series by Catherine Cowles. We’re loving our journey through the series, getting to know the characters through each book, and you can bet we’ll be here for the whole series! A small town emotional romance that encapsulates friendship, love with a powerful message about not letting your past define you. Not to mention the wonderful writing!

‘I had spent so much of my life trying to avoid the very pain I was walking straight towards.’

Set on Anchor Island, Catherine Cowles once again captured the exquisite surroundings, transporting Anchor Island from the pages and into our imaginations as we followed the relationship between Kenna Morgan and Crosby McCoy. Kenna is a successful Accountant with a past that ties her to Anchor Island. Along with the memories, comes all the pain Kenna endured as a young girl, and this lady broke our hearts.

Crosby left behind his wealthy life in Boston to set up a business and is now a successful lawyer, happily calling Anchor Island home, and wow we loved this man! Carefree and happy go lucky, Crosby’s outer shell hid a world of hurt which caused him to doubt his ability to love and settle down.

“I’m in this for as long as it lasts. I might not be able to give you forever, but I’ll give you all of me while we’re here.”
‘Having all of him meant that it would hurt that much more when it was over. But I couldn’t seem to force myself to walk away.’

Whilst Jack and Kenna’s initial relationship consisted of bickering banter and basically trying to get a rise out of one another, they soon realised their vulnerabilities connected them on a deeper level, with the outcome of their relationship and the obstacles they endure, hitting us right in the hearts.

‘Crosby and I had more in common than I’d thought. It didn’t matter if a child had every toy in the world or just three. It didn’t change the pain of being ignored.’

Anyone who loves their stories with a breathtaking setting, wonderfully relatable characters who are written with heartfelt emotion, wit and endearing prose then you need to add this series to your TBR’s! As the walls crumbled, so did our hearts. What a fabulous series! We’re officially hooked!
