5 Star Audio Review ~ Shattered (Triple Canopy #7) by Riley Edwards

 


Synopsis:

Wren Cunningham wants to put her past behind her when she and her teenage son move from Chicago to Georgia to start a new life away from the dark cloud they’ve been living under since Wren’s ex was sent to prison. She tells herself she only has time for her son as she builds a wall around her heart. A wall that threatens to crumble when Phoenix saves her son from a fire. Phoenix is everything she’s never had—thoughtful, gentle, and a good role model for her son. His piercing blue eyes see straight into her soul. But if the walls around her heart are high, his are higher still.

Phoenix Kent grew up hearing how much he resembled his father, at least physically. Inside, the two men couldn't have been more different. Phoenix's father was a criminal, a murderer, and a cop killer. Phoenix is a police officer who volunteers at a community center for troubled teens. After he saves one of the boys, Griffin, from a fire at the center, Phoenix retreats from Griffin’s life, believing he doesn't have what it takes to be a father figure, which the teenager desperately needs. He sure doesn’t believe he deserves to be with Griff’s beautiful mother, Wren, whose painful past mirrors his own.

When Phoenix has no choice but to bring Griff along on a mission to rescue a barn full of abused and neglected horses, he doesn’t realize how much the experience will change Griff’s life. Or how it will bring Wren into Phoenix’s life.

Passion ignites, but can they tear down their walls before it’s too late?


Review:

Phoenix was a hero to Griff.  When Griff was saved from a fire, Phoenix gave him time to heal but that healing didn't happen as Phoenix would have liked.  His past was not only haunting to him but it was also something that Griff could relate to. Phoenix can't see himself more than who he is and is struggling with the concept of one day being more.

Wren is a savior of sorts. She did what any mother would and got her son out of a situation that was hurting not only her but him as well.  Griff has a hard time trusting from things that happened in is past but Wren wanted to have in around people who adored him as much as she did and Phoenix was the perfect person for the "job".

Phoenix and Wren's story was not only perfect but each of them finding who they were while helping each other was genuine. The love that poured from each of them only made their story better.  While the ups and downs may have broken most, it only made this trio stronger.
