My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I absolutely love this series! And I LOVE Natalie & Grayson together ♥️ spicy romance books are my favorite and this book did it for me! I loved every page. Enemies to lovers is my favorite trope! Something about the drama and the angst, just grabs my attention! Also having characters from the other books in this, makes it that much better too! And when you have the drama, suspense, action in a romance book..I become obsessed. I love feeling all the emotions! I love spice as much as the next person but a great storyline is what does it for me. Read this series! You won’t be disappointed. I can’t wait for more!

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Efram, hottie with a hidden secret, and Miranda, stressed to gills with an ex-pain in the ass. These two are made for each other. There is some instant spark there. The fun is reading along as the secrets are found out and how they work through them. The author has a wonderful way with words. Miranda is a strong character and I love how she still shows her feminine ways and vulnerability when she needs to. I loved the plot. I loved the other characters. This is a fun series that works as stand alone or a series.

What an intense story! I jumped in right from the start and didn’t come up for air until I finished the story. The intensity just grabs you. I love the suspense and how the author wrote it into the story. The author does a tremendous job of introducing the characters to us. The plot is out-of-this world. This is a story that just might make you rethink turning those lights off (even if it is a stalker, I’m not telling). This is a definite must read.

Most people think I’m a nice guy.

But I’m fooling everyone.

No one suspects I have a secret. No one knows the things I do after dark or the danger I put myself in. No one knows I’m a skilled hunter with an addiction I can’t stop.

Then I encounter Miranda Patton on one of my hunts. It seems I’m not the only one with a secret.

A strange twist of fate has our paths crossing once again.

This time, she’s not a victim. She’s my boss.

Our attraction is instantaneous. Undeniable. When I’m with her, my heart sings.

Miranda has no idea who I really am, and I have to keep it that way.

But lies are never good. And mine soon comes back to bite me.

Now she’s in danger and I have only myself to blame.

An apology won’t save her now. And it’s too late for the truth.

Will my deception cost me the only woman I have ever loved?

Unexpected Entanglement (The Echo Series Book 3) by C.R. Alam – Review by M Policicchio

Unexpected Entanglement (The Echo Series, #3)Unexpected Entanglement by C.R. Alam
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

One arching theme that I am finding throughout this series is the need to balance one’s dreams with someone else’s. Rowan says it best when she says that she is putting herself first, not taking a backseat to anyone else’s career, and will not expect anyone to take a backseat for her dreams. Finding that balance between the partner’s goals is important. I think that each person is willing to find ways to make both dreams/goals work is HUGE!!

Rowan has a lot going on. Her father disclosed that he has a secret daughter that he abandoned right before he died. He asked Rowan to find her sister. Rowan and her father were working on restoring the family’s seaside inn and is now doing it alone. Rowan recently quit her ‘big city’ job to come back home to run the inn. She also walked away from a 5-year relationship because he was diminishing her. Now she has a limited amount of time to get everything up and running for a family wedding.

Chris is on a mission of sorts. He is on vacation to help out a friend and make a trek to his father’s place for a visit. Chris is actively trying to avoid going to his father’s, hence the favor for a friend. This favor has him checking out a small seaside inn. The friend? The half-sister of the current owner’s. When Chris gets to the inn, he realizes that his preconceived notions of his friend’s half-siblings were all wrong. Now he has volunteered to hang out at the inn and help Rowan with the wedding.

Sparks fly…figuratively and literally. Massages are given. Rings are exchanged.

I have enjoyed each installment of the series. I think Rowan’s fiery nature is one of my favorites. Worth the read! The whole series is. Add to your TBR.

I thought that the aesthetic was a driving force for the book. It started out well for me but I lost the connection around the mid point of the book. I thought that the plot lost a little of its spark for me. The author’s writing overall was beautiful in the area of description specifically with the aerial acrobatics. I will definitely be interested to read the next book.

Unexpected Entanglement (The Echo Series, #3)Unexpected Entanglement by C.R. Alam
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This series really knows how to pull at the heartstrings. I absolutely love The Echo Series. Unexpected Entanglement was a wonderful addition to the series. Though very much a series these books work well as standalone novels as well. The author is at it again. The ability to make the reader happy, sad, angry, and bring tears to one’s eyes is a gift that not all possess. In saying that and the emotional rollercoaster ride I just finished, this is my favorite book in the series to date. I hope there’s more.
Chris and Rowan are wonderfully written. Two characters on different paths when their lives collide. Recognizing the best in one another and using those attributes to make Rowan’s property rebuild and first wedding event a success. Not without drama Bright Head Inn & Farm keeps running into some speed bumps. Patriarch passing, an estranged sister, some cosmetic issues, or the neighbor who’s lobbying for the property won’t prevent them from prevailing. The sister is the reason Chris is there in the 1st place. It’s the other sister he meets at the Inn he can’t keep out of his head and heart. Determined to help he would do anything for Rowan, only if she lets him.
The Echo Series keeps you on your toes. It keeps you wanting more. I’ll reiterate that you can read these books without reading the others, however my question is “why would you?” Time to take a dive into these characters’ lives, you won’t regret it.

Unexpected Entanglement (The Echo Series, #3)Unexpected Entanglement by C.R. Alam
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This series has been extremely well written and I have enjoyed all three stories. This one follows Chris Sullens. He owns and develops small resorts in some of the most beautiful areas in the world. He finds himself on a small island in order to help Rae, his best friend’s new wife, when she finds out some interesting family news. I like that this book circles back to some of the reasons Rae is untrusting in book one. Chris is flashy and comes from money, but he really wants to move away from that and loves his Eve Collections resorts that he created. When he arrives on the island he is instantly interested in Rowan. She is a red headed, independent spitfire who is running the family inn. Not everything has been easy for her after her father dies and drops a bomb on her and her brother. Chris shows up shortly before they are supposed to throw a family wedding and for some reason offers to help her. He has worked every part of the family business and tries to help where needed. He is there to help Rowan and they find themselves in some unexpected and strange occurrences. I loved the setting of this book so much and can imagine the small island feel, the inn and all the land, and the characters who live on the island too. I enjoy when an author writes books based on different characters but with overlapping stories so I can still read about the other characters.

I thought this book had everything needed to be a good read. There was the long lost sibling no one knew about, the will that showed the property should
Be spilt between the siblings
Including the new one they didn’t even know about. The unexpected attraction between Rowan and Chris. Lots of suspense!!!
I thought this book was perfectly written. Rowan is such a strong character but with Chris by her side to protect her and help her, she is unstoppable. At first Chris seemed to want to get in, see the facts and then get out but he vowed to stay and help and he did just that.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This is another excellent addition to this series, that can be read as a stand alone, but I doubt that you will want to once you get started.

When Rowan and her brother Kieran lose their father and learn of a half-sister all at the same time, they are not sure what to think or do. Rowan and her father were working on restoring their family inn, located in Vinalhaven, Maine, to its former glory, when her dad unexpectedly has a heart attack and passes away, leaving Rowan with a final message to find her sister, Rae. As Rowan and Kieran try to finish the work they had already started on the inn, as well as the farm attached to the inn, they try to find Rae, as the three siblings have been given the property to run together, and they all three have to be a part of it. Rae, however, is unable or unwilling to just suddenly become a part of what is going on, so her friend Chris decides to go check things out for her first. Rae is a well known travel blogger and her husband is part of a popular band, and they are worried that the siblings only want to find them for their investment abilities. Chris Sullens shows up without warning, but does explain to the siblings why he is there. Chris’ family owns a large, well known hotel chain, and Chris, himself, owns and runs a smaller hotel chain of destination based hotels. Chris is able to help Rowan to formulate more ideas of how to help her family’s inn come back, while getting it back up and running for a family wedding. When the pair unexpectedly find themselves to be fake engaged, in an effort to ward of unwanted advances of a suitor for Rowan and unwanted criticism from town elders who think they have the right to run the island and view it as theirs to control, the pair discover that they are good together – in more ways than one.

I have read a few books from this author and she always blows my mind with her stories. This is the third book of the very addictive The Echo series. This book could be read as a standalone but there are previous characters in this book as well. I was so excited when I got this book I started it right away. I could not put it down until the end. I can’t wait to see what this author will write next.

Rowan Kelly found out that she inherited an inn for a relative. She is only concentrating on her cousin to have the best wedding ever. Rowan knows that the inn needs some work so she is happy to do just that. She is busy cleaning this inn when a handsome stranger offers to help her. Rowan doesn’t want a man’s help but she feels something she never felt before. Will Rowan give her cousin a beautiful wedding or will it all be destroyed?

Cassandra first saw Chandler as a little girl and he left a lasting impression on her so now the little girl has blossomed into a beautiful woman and is auditioning to train at their school…. Her audition leaves Chandler all hot and bothered ….

Chandler has issues of his own and his dad and grandfather seem to haunt him and his recent ex wife is a pain in the rear 😬but his attraction to Cassandra is undeniable and it’s from born doses , they’re both fighting the inevitable though ….

Cassandra is also running from her uncle , her very dangerous uncle , the very same one she helped put behind bars ….she’s also no stranger to loss having lost both her magician parents in a devastating fire

I think the best way to describe this book is artistic with hints of mystery , suspense , romance and sensuality, the ending nearly killed me but I would read this again just to be all bound and wound up 😉

Wow, this book not only brought the steam, but the mystery and suspense kept me reading until the last page. Cassandra and Chandler were so sexy together and the age gap just made it all the hotter. The slow build up and reveal to the mystery. I had never thought of a circus as being a sexy background, but the author did an amazing job. The author created a vivid and descriptive world that our characters live in. This was an amazing start to an explosive series; I can’t wait to read the next book in the series.

Unexpected Entanglement by C.R. Alam is available now in eBook and Physical Book
⭐️⭐️⭐⭐⭐ Book Review

Unexpected Entanglement is the third installment of the Echo series. C.R. Alam loves to write heartfelt and steamy love stories that feature characters her readers would root for. Unexpected Entanglement is the story of Rowan and Chris. It is most definitely heartfelt and steamy. And Rowan and Chris are both lovable, relatable, and the type of characters you just can’t get enough of. Alam writes with such emotion the readers feel as if they are alongside the characters on an adventure. The detail in her descriptions allow the reader to feel the heat on their face, feel the flutter in their heart when someone special walks in the room, and smell the scents of all the great food. Some of the characters from previous books return but there are many new characters throughout that bring me to believe there could be a fourth installment to The Echo Series. C.R. Alam has quickly become one of my favorite, go-to authors and I would recommend her books to ANYONE who will stop and listen to me rant and rave about my most recent reads. I will shout it from the rooftop: This is a MUST READ! You won’t want to miss this one. And if you haven’t read the other installments in this series, you won’t want to miss out. Promise!

When I first read the synopsis for this book I was so intrigued it sounded like nothing I had read before and I am so glad that I decided to give it a go. It was such a great read and so refreshing to read something a little bit different. The authors attention to detail made it feel like I was right there watching these characters, she made it so easy to imagine exactly what was happening in the story. I loved the forbidden side of the story and also the twists with how the characters’ lives were intertwined. The suspense that ran through the story kept me turning the pages to find out what was going to happen next. I am really excited to see where the author takes this story in book 2!

This was a great 5 star read. Rowan and her family have been working on getting her inn ready for a family wedding. There is an unexpected twist that turns her world upside down in several ways. It was a heartbreaking moment, my emotions were all over the place. Chris shows up in town and his plans end up changing when he offers to help Rowan. As they work together their feelings start to build, I really enjoyed the banter between them. The author does a great job with her writing and pulls you right in. I really liked all of the characters. It felt like we got more than one story. If you like romantic suspense I suggest you 1-click and get started today. I look forward to reading more from this series and author.

This is a good book with a great plot. The characters are well-developed and have growth throughout the book.

This book focuses on Natalie and Grayson. Natalie is a woman on a mission to uncover something about her late father. Grayson is one of the best architects and has built more elaborate walls around himself.

Natalie meets Grayson while working in a job that she is overqualified for while looking for answers. She’s not one of the girls in the office that gossips and waits around for Grayson to notice her. She gets her work done and is pretty persistent. Grayson is a force to be reckoned with he goes after what he wants.

What happens when a self reliant woman meets a strong-willed man? Can she break down his walls? Will he find out the secrets she tries to hide? What will happen when the truth final comes out? Read to find out.

This is the third book in the Echo series and I loved it!

Wanting to prove that she is capable of running her family’s inn, Rowan Kelley is determined to turn things around for her cousin’s wedding. Things change when she meets Chris Sullens.

Planning on just staying for a day, Chris Sullens finds himself helping Rowan with the Inn. He finds himself faking to be her fiancée and helping her with the Inn.

I can never turn away from a fake relationship trope. I must admit that this is the case of don’t judge a book from its cover. The cover is cute but I never would have imagined that this was the story written between the pages. A plot that hooked me from the first page.

There are other novels in this series so I will have to go read them.

No one seems to have any information about it. When Grayson hand picks Natalie Chapelle to be his liaison between himself and the city officials, he realizes she is hiding things, including her last name.

Again I just got lost in the cover art ❣️love the dedication ❣️📚

So now we’re all friends or rather family it really felt good to be amongst my people again 🫶🏼 knowing Rae and her history I was curious to hear how the other family lived…

I can only imagine the shock Rowan must’ve had first of loosing her father and then his dying words and wish 🥲so Rae can’t meet up with her family but Chris goes on her behalf and he has alterior motives and none are sinister but the man has his own issues and he’s protective of his friend , bless his heart …..

So Chris and Rowan didn’t get off to a good start but soon enough they’re working as a team to arrange the wedding , promote the inn , get the community on board oh and find out who is trying to sabotage them around every corner …. I know such excitement !

Kieran is a good soul and a protective brother but his heart is in the right place and I just fell in love with his nature 😉

Alit of people saw Chris as a threat which in turn put Rowan in a difficult position so out of pure desperation she makes a rash decision that puts both her in Chris in the limelight but man what sun it was to watch these two , they’re so different yet so similar , a perfect match I must say 🥰😉

Gibbs worked on my last nerve but again you can’t fault the old guy , his heart is in right place he’s just not always good at showing it and more often than not comes across as a real gruff and grumpy old man , please be patient with him and his show him love , I know these people have become part of me so I just want others to love them like I do 😘

This is a story of love , redemption, regret, forgiveness, remorse , hope and so much more but it’s also laced with anger , jealousy and vengeance.
I was kept on my toes , I laughed , cried , held my breath and cheered friends on and I’ve a new found respect for cats 🐾🤣, just saying !

The slow burning sizzle!
This one was an exciting romantic, joyful, yet suspenseful ride.
I felt it was kinda slow to start. However when that fire started to burn the flames grew!
Cassandra’s determination and then later growing into more dedication to Chandler was definitely something that I felt like I was a part of.
And the slow grow with Chandler. Well that made me want to strangle him at times.
I would say this was a pretty light quick read.

Prepare to fall in love with Rowan and Chris. I enjoy fake dating tropes mixed with drama and mystery. There was so much to their story together, as much as individually. They come together unexpectedly, and each can’t ignore the pull they feel to each other. This was a great read.
Chris is doing a favor for a friend, and Rowan is trying to keep her family business alive. Together they build an entanglement meant to last.

I’m old enough to remember what a trip to the circus was like. The thrill and excitement as you sat it utter amazement watching the incredible performers do death defying stunts. The aerialists were always my favorite with the clowns being my LEAST favorite! All these feelings or intrigue and suspense came at me in full bloom as I read the story of Cassandra and Chandler.

So much angst and suspense to keep you reeling for days. And right at the end,,,,your heart drops with a cliffhanger! I hate cliffhangers only because I’m impatient as hell. But this will definitely keep me guessing on what the lies in store in the next book!

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Unexpected Entanglement is the third book in the series. This book is about Chris – who we have met before -a hotel conglomerate, best friend of Dean, and now a great friend of Rae’s. We find out at the beginning that Rae has extended family that just found out about her. She is not sure how to handle this news, and due to the fact that she is pregnant, Chris volunteers to go check things out. Rae’s father has left property to her and her siblings, but not sure what to expect. Chris arrives on this small island and things from the start become quite interesting. He meets Rae’s siblings – Rowan and Kieran Kelly. The siblings own a farm and inn that is trying to reopen, but in two weeks they are holding a wedding and not really prepared. Once Chris makes it to his destination, things start to move quickly; Chris offers up his services to help prepare for this wedding. While no one understands why he would be doing this, he tries to reassure them it is for the love of his friend. What Rowan doesn’t realize is that Chris is a blessing in disguise. Can the two work together to host this wedding? Will obstacles always get in the way of progress? Can the two keep their attraction to each other at bay to have a successful opening? Will the siblings be able to come together to produce a successful inn that means so much to their father?
There is a lot going on in this book, but I love it. As the third book, I have already fell in love with most of the characters. Chris always had small roles in the first two books, but I knew I was just going to love him – and I do!! Chris is a down-to-earth, handsome, successful, smart, gentleman with a huge heart. He is a hard worker and confident in his abilities. Rowan is a strong, sassy, stubborn woman who is just a great partner for Chris. She is driven and begins to become more courageous about going after what she wants. The little bit of spice that is written was also enjoyable. It was a great story about siblings coming together, love finding each other, and healing from the past.

I have never seen any kind of performances like the ones described here, but it makes me want to go and watch the live action. Chandler has been a master aerialist mastering his craft over the year in his family’s business. Cassandra saw his perform once and got his autograph after a show which made her want to become an aerialist and to study under him was her dream. He has been waiting for a protege of her magnitude for a long time and now that she has arrived, she has not only captivated the audiences with her performances but his heart as well. Both are keeping secrets from one another which adds to the mystery of the book and keeps you trying to figure out what is happening. If you have children, I will definitely say don’t listen to this in their presence. The steamy scenes are a bit too steamy for little ears. I can’t wait to see what happens in the next book of the series.

The Innovator (WaterFyre Rising, #3)The Innovator by Nadia Han
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I love a good enemies to friends story and this one did not disappoint. I really enjoyed Natalie and Grayson. The back and forth between the two really helped move the plot which I thought started out slow. I enjoy reading this author and would definitely recommend her books. I look forward to the next one!
