The world had tried to break her.
Addie has dreamt of freedom for as long as she can remember—peace away from the torment of her old life. But now that it’s finally within her grasp, she’s struggling to take those first steps into her new reality.
The last thing she wants is a new roommate to see the scars she’s desperate to keep hidden, especially not the ruggedly handsome man who steals her breath and sends her heart into overdrive.
“I’m nobody’s hero. Trust me.”
All Beckett wants is to silence the demons of his past. The first step is to make amends for not being there when his family needed him the most. That means settling in Wolf Gap for good, even if the town reminds him of all the ways he failed.
He never expected to share a home with a blonde-haired beauty with haunting hazel eyes. But he’s held captive by her quiet strength and the way she sees everything he tries to hide.
Soon, an unlikely friendship becomes so much more. But when forces from Addie’s life slink out of the shadows, they could both lose everything they fought so hard for—down to their very last breaths…

⭐️ 4 STARS ⭐️
After reading the previous two books in the Tattered and Torn Series, I just couldn't wait to finally get Addie's story. I was really intrigued about this young woman with a sheltered life, but also about what brought back in Wolf Gap, Beckett. Hidden Waters left me in awe of this charming couple!
Addie and Beckett's romance was just so stunning! They started as roommates and slowly developped the most beautiful connection. Their story was most of all about healing and fighting their past to get the future they wanted. Addie was truly a great exemple of determination and kindness. It was inspiring to witness her growth. She was such a beautiful soul, as was Beckett. Seriously, that man was irresistible. He was simply so good, caring and patient with Addie. Together, this couple was a beauty! I loved watching their love blossom!
Between all the romance and emotional aspects of this novel, there was also a good dose of suspense that had me engrossed. The presence of Hayes, Everly, Hadley, Calder and company made this read even more delightful. Hidden Waters was a lovely addition to an already amazing small town romance series!
