The Complete Echo Series: A Heartfelt Romance Collection (The Echo Series) by C.R. Alam – Review by Jennifer Gordon
The Complete Echo Series by C.R. Alam
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
I love a box set because it means I can ‘binge read’ the whole series without having to wait impatiently for the next book to be released. This is an enjoyable and engaging series of standalone stories featuring a different couple and their journey to love.
‘Echoing Hearts’, is Dean and Rae’s enemies to lovers romance which kept me happily turning the pages. Although fate keeps pulling the couple together, distrust, jealousy and doubt all play a part in whether they trust in love or not. I found the chemistry between Rae and Dean sizzled off the page, but I also liked the slow burn romance between them.
In ‘His Forever Muse’, Brandon and Calliope are childhood friends who become adult lovers in this heartwarming and at times heartbreaking story. It’s been fifteen years since the pair have seen each other but their connection is just as strong in this second chance romance. The story does deal with some domestic violence themes, however these are dealt with sensitively and do give a backstory to the characters situation.
Chris and Rowan start of as fake fiancé’s in, ‘Unexpected Entanglement,’ when Chris comes to Rowan’s rescue, to help her organise a beautiful wedding at her family’s inn for her cousin. This is a heartwarming romantic story with plenty of suspense, making it a real page turner.
‘Dangerous Rhythm’, is Curtis and Lina’s whirlwind adventure romance. Curtis is a rockstar in hiding and it’s Lina’s job to keep him safe. The chemistry between Lina and Curtis really came across in the narrative and I loved how their relationship developed throughout the story. The storyline had me hooked from page one and the action packed plot kept me gripped.
I was taken on an emotional rollercoaster whilst reading this collection of contemporary romances, which I definitely recommend.
