Catherine Cowles has done it again! This is the absolute perfect start to another top selling series! Fragile Sanctuary is so beautifully written. I laughed I cried and I couldn’t read fast enough and yet I also didn’t want to finish. This book is brothers best friend, touch her and die, small town and all about family! Anson and Rhodes are one of my favorite couples I have ever read about! Absolutely beautiful!
