Publisher's summary

A woman trying to rebuild her life.

Kennedy is doing all she can to escape, to prove that she's not the monster her father was. A simple life of peace and service is all she needs.

A man haunted by a past he can't forget.

Cain has buried his demons under layers of control and success. The only thing he needs is his company and his solitude. Certainly not a woman with captivating green eyes filled with ghosts so similar to his own.

He's a reminder of the life she's left behind. And she's a threat to his tightly guarded control. As sparks fly between them, they discover that what they might need most is each other.

But with pasts like theirs...you never know when darkness might descend.

4/5

I really enjoyed Kennedy and Cain’s story! There was some repetition with this one as well but also had its own unique storyline. Cain is such a swoon worthy hero!

Narration: Maxine and Aaron just go so good together. I really enjoy them reading to me!

Loved Kennedy and Cain!

Beautifully Broken Control is a perfect addition to the Sutter Lake series.
If you have read the previous books in the series then you have already met
Kennedy and it is obvious that she is harboring secrets. It is also obvious that this is because of fear, but she is a caring friend to Jensen and a hard worker and volunteer.
Cain is college buddies with Walker and Tucker and he is checking out Sutter Lake because he desperately needs a change of pace from his company as he tries to figure out who is giving away his secrets. It is also obvious he carries pain from his past and his protective nature is a result of that and that protective nature is magnified when Kennedy is in danger.
Kennedy and Cain definitely have chemistry but they also have secrets and pain from their pasts. It was a joy to watch them work through it all with the other by their side and finally find their own happiness and happily ever after.
I also had the added benefit of listening to the audio version of this story and the narrators did an amazing job that absolutely added to my enjoyment of this book!

Great story, but Kennedy wasnt my fave. She was nice and all but out of all the female characters, she just wasnt a fave. Loved Kane, though. And overall, a great story.

Love this Age-Gap Small-Town Romance

“There’s nothing in this life I’m more grateful for than you.” Review: This is book 4 in the Sutter Lake series. We have gotten glimpses of Cain throughout the other books in the series and he intrigued me. I am so excited to finally have his story and that he gets an HEA too! Kennedy is working hard to make it on her own and make a new life for herself. Cain works hard and is in need of an escape when he gets upsetting news. Kennedy works at The Kettle and has been taken under Jensen's wing. Jensen brings her into the fold and therefore into their family gatherings. Kennedy meets Cain one night at the Cole house. Cain is instantly curious about the girl who evades giving too much away. She sparks his curiousity further and he can't help but look into her further. She draws him in like no one has in years. Only what he finds is not what he expected. These two were both broken and shielding themselves from love and any true connection with another. They were so perfect to help each other and break down those walls. I loved Kennedy's outlook on her new life and even started a Grateful jar of my own. “There was always something to be grateful for. Always.” Cain was so protective of Kennedy and my heart broke for him and the pain he had to endure from his past. I understood why he felt he had to protect the ones he loved. These two were a slow burn, but once the match was lit, they were fire! I loved them! I also loved that we got updates on everyone in the series. This found family is just what each of them needed!
