Whispers of You by Catherine Cowles
4.0
In true Catherine Cowles fashion, she delivers a romantic suspense filled with slow burn romance and fantastic characters. It is definitely not your typical small town romance, although the cozy feel of the small town is still there to wrap you up like a warm hug. I love how she sets up the future books in the series and introduces us to all the side characters without it being distracting and still keeping to the plot of the current book. While the background of the main characters is dark and complex, you can still relate to the characters.
The worlds that Catherine Cowles builds in her series always draw me in and as per usual I was hooked on this book right from the get go. It kept me guessing the entire way through and while I had some theories I definitely did not see the twist coming. The love story is full of angst and while second chance romances are not my favorite, I did connect with Wren and Holt's story and felt their connection as the way it was written made them truly feel inevitable and meant to be.
This book would have been 5 stars for me if it hadn't been for the 10 year time jump, I personally just find such huge gaps in time entirely unrealistic and hard to wrap my head around, especially in this instance. I also feel like Wren and Holt reconciled a bit too easily and I would have enjoyed having more detail and time focused on them getting back together, however this book was still very enjoyable and addicting to read! I can't wait for the rest of this new series!
