Summary

One night was all it took for everything to change. From college student to guardian in a single breath. My siblings became my world.

No time for date nights or romantic dreams. I traded quiet weekends for sleepless nights. Giving my all to make sure they were cared for.

But Griffin had a brokenness that called to me - one that mirrored my own. Gruff and just a little bit reckless. He was the last thing I needed. But everything I wanted.

Only someone isn’t happy about this new life I’m building. Deciding to set fire to everything I hold close. And when the smoke clears, there might be only ashes left behind....

Fantastic listen!

Emotionally charged, slow burn, second chances, a little suspense. This book has all the things I love in a story. The third book in Catherine Cowles Wrecked series, Wrecked Palace pulled me in and kept me captivated. Caelyn's life as a college student takes a complete turn when she becomes guardian for her three siblings. Willing to sacrifice her life to give them a stable, happy home, she does what she needs to get by. Griffin, a tortured "giant" of a man, struggles everyday with his past. Cowles takes these town wonderful characters and weaves a romance that will grab your heart. She lets us watch how two souls compliment each other. We also have the fabulous cast of siblings adding innocence. Love and humor. It's a culmination of all emotions with cameos from our favorites in the series. Loved this book and can't wait to hear the next one!

Ava Erickson and Joe Arden enhance this gem with an amazing narration. Erickson proves the strength and love of Caelyn. Each inflection brings out her personality bright and shining. Arden comes in as the broody Griffin. His voice gave this tortured hero,the pain he felt and also gave him that sweet, loving side making us fall for him. This fantastic team was a pleasure to listen to.

Oh wow!

What can you say about a book that gives you so much feeling. The narration was amazing. The depth of emotion this book evokes is incredible. Once you start listening you won’t be able to stop. The storyline will break your heart and then put it back together by the end of the book. I love this authors work and I knew this would be good but I have to say it’s probably my favourite book of hers I’ve ever read or listened to. I cannot recommend this book and series highly enough.

Wonderful book 5*

Wrecked Palace is the 3rd book in the Wrecked series and I was so looking forward to this.
I think after reading it it is my favourite.
This book has every emotion and suspense to keep you hooked. Caelyn took on the mother figure role to her siblings at a young age and put her own life on hold to care for them.
What can I say about Griffin this mysterious, grumpy man (Giant) who we met in earlier books and left you wanting more. This man is really a tortured soul but sees something in Caelyn and wants the best for her. He offers her a job as a chef/cook so he can protect her.
This book pulls on your heart strings and beautifully written and I cannot recommend it enough worth 5*+.
Audio is perfect

Book Hangover is REAL!

Book Hangover is REAL! Wrecked Palace is the kind of story I wanted to read over again as soon as I finished. It’s sweet and emotional, real and romantic.

One phone call changed Caelyn O’Connor’s life. She went from a happy college junior, to the head of a household and guardian to her brother and sisters. Caelyn loves her “tiny terrors” and works multiple jobs to give them everything they need.

“And isn’t that what everyone hopes for? To have joy amidst all the trials. You give us joy…”

Broody and handsome Griffin Lockwood usually keeps to himself, working on his farmhouse on the far side of the island. But when he opens his life to Caelyn and her siblings, he discovers healing and a family that he never thought he would find.

I listened to Wrecked Palace on audiobook and really enjoyed the narration. Ava Erickson really brought Caelyn to life. I loved everything about this book.
-5 Stars!-

This was just WOW! Loved it.

The best of Catherine’s books so far! I’m sure I say that each time.....the audio takes it to another level. Both Joe and Ava do justice to the book with all the emotions.

This was just WOW! Griffins been there in the background for the last few books, the mystery man.

Now we get his story and what a heartbreaker it is.

We know Caelyn’s back story, she’s not had it easy and things are about to get a whole lot worse.

This is a story of them not only finding themselves but their other half! However to get there they have to face the ups and downs, the heartache and heartbreak and you feel it every step of the way.

A fantastic book great Audio adaptation.
