I think this is my favorite book in this series thus far. I fell in love with Addie and Beckett from page one. The stuff popping up from Addie's past kept me turning the pages to see what happened next, and I loved the relationship progression between her and Beckett. 

I loved that Addie was a strong lead. Despite her past she made it a point to branch out on her own. Even though Beckett wanted to put her in a bubble, he didn't stunt her growth and understood when she needed to do things on her own. I think that was my favorite part of this story. That, and the communication the two main characters had with each other. They were always honest about their thoughts and feelings which really helped their relationship progress as quickly as it did. 

Catherine Cowles is absolutely becoming one of my favorite authors.

Such a good book. I love this series. So much trauma and strength. They were definitely made for each other. I may have cried towards the end

I read it in a stand-alone.
I think I missed some information or story aside.
Overall, I found it moderately good.
The resilience is not as possible as it is described.
Please read the trigger warning. Some part can be hard to read.

Hidden Waters was almost as good as Falling Embers. I loved getting to meet the eldest Easton son, Beckett, and experience him falling for Addie. He was also struggling with the past, so it was great to see him and Addie bond over that and help each other. I was also happy Addie to rise above her upbringing away from her horrible dad and blossom. This was such a sweet romance mixed with a side dark romantic suspense.
