Rowan Kelly thought her life was all planned out until she finds out a secret that was carefully hidden. Now the improvements she is hoping for for her inn. When Chris Sullens ends up in town offering his help and to get a sense of the inn, she never expects it to be in a fake relationship. As they get closer though they find the chemistry is too much to ignore, what happens when they fall for one another.
Another great story from this author. Rowan is full of sass and I liked that the emotions for her and her sister were a bit raw, it fit with the plot. Chris is great, he has some swagger and the attraction between Rowan and Chris is undeniable.

Alam – Review by Emily H
This is the third book in the Echo Series. This brings what readers of C.R. Alam have learned to love. A great plot, characters that feel like they could be someone that you know and some love. Chris is such an amazing character. I love that he is a famous entrepreneur but he is able to come into a small town and really fit in and doesn’t stick out like a sore thumb. Rowan has come into an inn and she is pouring her heart and soul into fixing it up. She is facing a serious deadline, the inn needs to be up and running before her cousin’s wedding. Chris is a famous hotelier. His hotels are located all over the world. But being in this small town he knows how to get things not only done but done well. What happens when Chris and Rowan’s paths meet? What begins as a fake entanglement may just become something more. I definitely recommend reading this book and the others in the echo series. Each book is a stand alone but I wouldn’t miss a single one as they are all excellent.

Alam – Review by Christine Baranek
I was excited to start reading the third book in this series and it certainly did not disappoint. I loved the characters in this book. They had so much chemistry between them and they fit together so well. they were entertaining to read about and I thought they made the whole book so engaging. The story was well written and thoroughly enjoyable. I do love a fake fiancé style book and this was a brilliant example. This author is still fairly new to me and yet I have not come across a book that I haven’t enjoyed. I always seem to finish one looking forward to reading the next. I cannot wait to see what else is to come.

Alam – Review by Kerry Baker
Having read and enjoyed the previous two books in the series I was looking forward to this story, and I found it as entertaining and engaging as the others. Although the characters do crossover it can be read as a standalone story. Although the inn which Rowan Kelly has inherited is not as ready or as staffed as she would like, she’s determined to provide her cousin with a beautiful wedding held there. Meanwhile, well known hotelier Chris Sullens had planned on staying in Vinalhaven for just twenty four hours, but finds himself offering to help the beautiful but fiery innkeeper plan a wedding. Rowan knows she should be flattered by Chris’s help and use his expertise but she just finds him nosy, and a bit charming. Despite their obvious mutual attraction and sizzling chemistry, they both try to keep things professional, and we’re doing well until Chris finds himself playing the role of Rowan’s fiancé. However, the couple have to work together as strange events seem to threaten not only the wedding and the inn’s future, but also Rowan’s safety. The storyline flows well and the plot kept me hooked throughout. Both main characters are likeable and relatable, who’s chemistry really came across in the narrative. This heartwarming romantic suspense story was a real page turner.

Alam – Review by Jennifer Gordon
Unexpected Entanglement is the third book in The Echo Series. It centers around Rowan who has been working hard to restore a rundown inn that has been in her family for years. Her father was working with her to restore the inn until his sudden passing. Before her father died, he told Rowan a deep dark secret that he has kept hidden from her and her brother all their lives. This secret shocks Rowan to the core and alters the course of future events in her life.
Fast forward several months and a wealthy hotelier named Chris has arrived at Vinalhaven. As a man who owns hotels all over the world he is well known and well respected in the hotel industry. His plan was to only remain for twenty-four hours and do some snooping around on the owners of Vinalhaven. However, his plans quickly change when he offers to help Rowan who is fighting a tight deadline to get the inn ready for her cousin’s upcoming wedding.
Although both Chris and Rowan try to remain professional about their arrangement, they find it hard to deny their attraction to one another. When he gets roped into playing the role of Rowan’s doting fiancé things take a turn. Suddenly things between them sizzle and the sparks between them start to fly. Will Rowan and Chris be able to work together when things start to go wrong at the inn and its future is at stake? Is there a future between the two of them? Is there a future for the inn?
The chemistry between Rowan and Chris was undeniable and it was interesting to see where the story was going. Especially since Chris was at Vinalhaven to basically spy on Rowan and her brother. Obviously, a heart wants what it wants, and attraction is hard to deny. The long-lost family member part of the story was intriguing and gave the storyline an interesting twist. I needed to read farther and see if there would be a family reunion of sorts between the siblings and how that would go. This book had mystery, drama, chemistry, passion, unexpected romance, and a twist with long-lost siblings.

Alam – Review by Tara Johnson Barnes
I really enjoyed the way this author weaves the romantic suspense and steam into the third book of this series. Even though this is full of complicated emotions, I felt a connection with each of the characters. The level of detail that went into the characters and settings were top level. My favorite by far was Rowan. She is so feisty and independent, until she meets Chris. They melt into each other and there is plenty of spice involved. I appreciated the thoroughness of the plot, so the author didn’t just rely on the tantalizing scenes to carry the story. Even though they have PLENTY of chemistry, is there a happily ever after for these two, or is it just a short stint they’ll look back on fondly?

Alam – Review by Shannen Kern
This is the 3rd book in The Echo Series. I highly recommend reading the books in order so you get a better feel for the characters as previous characters show up in this story. However it could be read as a standalone because it mainly focuses on the two main characters Chris and Rowan. This story has a mixture of everything. The romance is a slow burn as circumstances mean that Chris and Rowan have to pretend to be a couple. So what happens when faking being in love actually turns into the real thing? This is something neither of them expected to happen or were looking for. All Chris had to do was help Rowan pull off her cousins wedding, but as attraction sizzled between them and strange things started happening he knew there was no way he could walk away from her.
As a reader you can’t help but fall in love with the characters which just goes to show how much love and character the author puts into them. They are more than just words on a page you can imagine them as living breathing beings and you feel every emotion they go through. I really enjoyed this emotional heartfelt story.

Alam – Review by Kerry Carr
I love the Echo series !! This 3rd book is just as fantastic as the other 2. None of the characters resemble each other & none of the storylines are even close to the same . There is always an element of excitement, along with some steamy spots, but mostly they are so wholesome. Chris is such a great guy & it was wonderful to see him find love! I didn’t really care for Rowan & I would have liked to see Chris be loved as freely & enthusiastically as he deserved. She was very negative & self denying & hurt his feelings too often for me. It was kind of annoying. However, she was a tough cookie & courageous. There were good qualities in her, & her love for Chris & Rae were the most important thing. Plus, grief has a profound impact on personality & the author showed that beautifully. I LOVED that Rae finally got to meet her sister & brother, & loved even more that it was her friend & sister that connected. The bit of mystery was also done phenomenally & really kept me uncertain right up to the reveal. Even though I thought I knew, I still thought it could have been different too. I’m so excited to read more of these books & I hope we get a Kieran & Frankie story from this amazing author!

This very talented author creates such amazing characters and storylines filled with so much heart! I was instantly in love and was completely invested in the story of Rowan and Chris right from the start. Having met Chris a little in the previous books in this wonderful series I knew his story was going to be a great read and it definitely was that and so much more! Now if you haven’t read the previous books you will still follow the storyline and enjoy it wholeheartedly but I HIGHLY recommend reading the entire series simply because the people and places created in these pages will burrow into your heart to stay and you don’t want to miss out on that.

This book is a great read with a lot of character development.
This book follows Rowan. She inherited an inn and has been fixing it up. She has a pretty clear vision of what she wants the inn to look like and the feeling it will have. With the help of her father, she has been able to get quite a bit of the remodeling done. She has a deadline that she wants to have up and running by and that is her cousin’s wedding.
Chris is world-renowned in the hotel industry. He has many hotels all over the world. What happens when he winds up in the same town as Rowan’s little inn? Chris is pretty laid back but knows how to put his foot down and get things done and done well.
What happens when the sassy spitfire meets the well-put-together businessman? Can something that was just for show really become something? Read this book to find out what happens with Rowan and Chris. Also, find out what happens with the inn.

This is the third book in this series and it didn’t disappoint. This is my favorite of this series so far. The chemistry between Chris and Rowan is off the charts. I was rooting for them the entire story. The author did an excellent job bringing out many different emotions in the reader. I enjoy a book that gives me all the feels, and this one definitely did. This book is full of love, family, chemistry, friendship, danger and more. This is definitely a must read and I can’t wait to read the next book by this author.

4.5 stars Unexpected Entanglement is the third book in The Echo series. I really enjoyed the first two books in the series and this one is no different. I like that CR has intertwined the characters throughout the books. This is probably my favourite of the three. This heartfelt and fun love story will have you falling in love with the characters, Rowan and Chris. I also enjoyed their back and forth banter. The supporting characters where great too. There is tension and angst, chemistry and steamy scenes, unbridled passion and humour, danger and suspense, pain and emotions. This is a great read and I was hooked from the word go. This is a captivating tale and I liked the fake relationship trope and all that comes with trying to keep things straight. What is supposed to be a simple wedding turns out it is anything but……. Are lives in danger? You will have to read to find out. I am looking forward to seeing what comes next from CR.

I’ve read several books from this series by C.R. Alam and I have to say this one is my absolute favorite. You know the connection is there and you hope to know the outcome but the struggles getting there are so real life. You root for Chris, you root for Rowan. Who is causing the problems for the Inn? Will the family ever meet? It has everything.

Once again this can be read as a standalone but is the 3rd book in the WaterFyre series. TW: Kidnapping, abuse, mentions of human trafficking/close calls
I just love the men in this series. I am so happy to finally have Grayson’s story, the wonderful architect. He is still struggling with the betrayal from the last book he has built some impenetrable walls around himself. His friends and family are trying to help but he has dived head-first into work and isn’t coming up for air. That is until he runs into Natalie. At the time Natalie is working a city job, trying to find answers to save her families legacy back home. They go back and forth at each other till the tension between them just SNAPS.
Enemies to lovers with suspense, heartbreak, and full of action! Can’t wait for The Inquisitor.

After reading the first two books in the Echo Series, I was excited to read Unexpected Entanglement. Once again, C. R. Alam did not disappoint! This book had wonderful characters: Rowan Kelly and Chris Sullens. When they meet, Rowan realizes that she could use Chris’ help with her inn; but small island community living easily sparks rumors-meaning the two will have to pretend to be a couple. This novel has a lot to offer, with well-written characters, romance, suspense, and humor. I recommend reading the first two books in this series, but Unexpected Entanglement could be read as a stand- alone.

This Contemporary Romance has it all. Even though Rowan and Chris tried to fight their emotions. Fake or not things still went from business to wholly hot. Rowan is strong and independent and even though she had a lot to accomplish with her sister’s wedding, she was determined to get it done. Chris on the other hand was not expecting to help out. So now that he got himself in hot water. How will he get himself out of the emotional rollercoaster he jumped into? Will Rowan see herself clear or will she too jump into the rollercoaster? This author left nothing out. Her writing is easy to follow and your emotions will be out of control. She really has a way with words. This story was right on, in the romance series. I can hardly wait to read more from this series. See where the author takes us next.

Alam – Review by Cindy Mayberry
This author knows how to create amazing, relatable characters. Even though Chris Sullens is a famous entrepreneur, he can talk to and relate to a small hometown community. From the main characters to the smallest of characters, the author puts an immense amount of personality into each of them as if you have known them for multiple series. In this case we have known Chris, but not to the extent in which we now know him in this novel.
This book is a tale of two love birds that struggle to express their opinions to each other but wear their hearts on their sleeves. The story of Rowan and Chris pulls at my heart strings and I was rooting for them every step of the way. Frustration, anger, lust, and happiness are all emotions that play major roles in this novel and I highly recommend you pick it up! There is a small amount of love scenes in this book which I appreciate because I do not enjoy complete erotica novels. It is easy enough to skip over those scenes as well. I sincerely cannot get enough of this author!

Unexpected Entanglements is the third book in The Echo series by C.R. Alam. This is a contemporary romance with a fake relationship element, an unexpected entanglement, chemistry, sizzle, emotion, angst, love, loss, grief, a little drama, danger, finding love unexpectedly, fate, banter, and more. Chris Sullens is about to have his world turned upside down when he not only finds himself offering to help plan a wedding out of the blue, he also can’t deny the connection that simmers between the stunning innkeeper/wedding planner and himself. But things take a very interesting turn when he then agrees to play her (fake) fiancé. So, get set as the sparks fly, chemistry sizzles, and things start to go awry. What happens definitely makes for an engrossing read. Happy Reading…

This is the third book in this series which I enjoyed reading just as much as the previous two books. I would highly suggest reading the previous two books to help your enhancement of this author. This is a series I have enjoyed reading from the first book I picked up. This book is just as engaging and hard to put down. I enjoyed how the author used details to make her story come to life on each page. The characters are relatable, strong and supportive of each other. They pull you into their world from the start and had me coming back for more. I enjoyed watching their growth and their chemistry just as great to see. I found this book to be fast paced and engaging. A story where a simple favor turns into so much more for these two characters. You don’t want to miss what happens next. I really enjoyed reading this book and I highly recommend it.

What a wonderful ending to a terrific series. Rowan and Chris’s story is just beautiful. It started with tragedy yet they overcame a lot. I found the story heartwarming with a bit of everything in it. I loved that old friends from the previous stories came to visit. This really helps ties everything up and helps with continuity of the story. I have loved all the characters. The author writes in such a way that you feel like they are your friends. This can be read as a stand alone or a series but I would recommend to read in order. I would recommend this series. It’ sone of the most heartfelt and warm series I’ve read in a while.

Alam – Review by Shelly Kittell
Grayson is stuck in a cycle of mistrust and work, when his Uncle betrayed the family he did not think he would survive the personal struggle which occurs from such a great betrayal but as he tries to purpose his project unexpectedly he meets someone who challenges him and does not back away from the alpha billionaire.
Natalie wants answers, her father died in mysterious circumstances and when a letter arrived saying she own a piece of real estate that her father had willed her she tries to seek information and why he would have done this. While on her adventures she is confronted with a man who stirs something inside and seems to have some more information regarding her property, the only problem he needs it as part of his project and she is hiding the fact she owns it, will this set of sparks of anger or are they both showing feelings of something more.
This the third book in this series and they only get better the more you read on, all the books can be read as stand alone books as there is only a small thread of background which runs through each character. I loved the chemistry which jumps off the page relating to Natalie and Grayson, with also the fact they are both hiding a secret in there past just adds to the overall arc of the story.
The story was well written and draws you in with the twists and turns as you delve further into the story on the page. It was also lovely to see the relationship between these two characters blossom in too respect and love in the end. With Grayson, understanding the relationship between his uncle and why this is such a betrayal that he had to try and understand and piece himself back together was brilliant to read.
I definitely can’t wait for the next instalment of this wonderful series.

When a simple favor turns into an unexpected entanglement.
Rowan Kelly has one goal for the next two weeks: throw the most beautiful wedding for her cousin. So what if the inn she inherited isn’t quite ready or staffed? She’s resourceful and scrappy enough to make it happen all by herself. She doesn’t need some nosy, charming stranger with smiles that both irritate her and make her woman’s bits tingle to swoop in to save the day.
World-renowned hotelier Chris Sullens only planned on spending twenty-four hours in Vinalhaven. So why the hell did he offer to help the fiery gorgeous innkeeper plan a wedding? He tries to keep things professional, but his self-control has its limits, especially when he suddenly has to play the role of the stubborn woman’s doting fiance.
As strange occurrences threaten the wedding, the inn’s future, and Rowan’s safety, can they work together to keep things from blowing up in their faces? Or will their unbridled passion entangle them into something more than they bargained for?
C. R. Alam loves to write heartfelt and steamy love stories with strong yet vulnerable characters readers would root for. There hasn’t been a main character she’s written about whom she didn’t fall in love with despite their shortcomings. She’ll laugh with her characters, cry along with them, then laugh again in the end. When she’s not reading or writing, you’ll most likely find her in the kitchen, cooking, baking, or eating while wearing her trusted Birks, sweatpants, and “I’m emotionally attached to fictional characters” T-shirt. After a whirlwind decade of living abroad, C. R. now lives in Durham, NC, with her husband, daughter, and cat.

Hands down one of my favorite series’….The Innovator is book 3 of the WaterFyre Rising and I absolutely LOVED Grayson and Natalie’s story. I highly recommend reading this series from the beginning as the characters and stories intertwine. I can say I loved each book so far and the author does not disappoint with book 3.
Enemies to lovers….Grayson and Natalie are that…while Grayson is all business, focused and determined to succeed in all his projects, Natalie thinks that he is rude and arrogant. When a project puts Grayson and Natalie together to work as a team, it was a bit rocky at first. Both Grayson and Natalie have their own “secrets” and truly darkness overshadows their heart. When Grayson and Natalie finally get to know each other more of their truths….the walls around their hearts start to crumble.

This was a lengthy book to read, but I felt that it was justified. The build-up was extremely well done and had me panting at some scenes. Cassandra had a dream. A dream to be one of the greatest aerialists in the world, even after she has lost both of her parents. She is taken under Chandler’s wing at the Dreamers Academy, and sparks fly between the both of them. The student/teacher forbidden trope was well written and has me wanting more! The plot twists were not was I expecting and had me rereading what I just read just to make sure I had read it correctly. I am waiting with bated breath on the next book to see where the story goes, after that terrible cliffhanger.

4.5 stars There is a caution with this book as it contains sexual content, profanity, and violence. Recommended for 18+. I was happy to see the next book was out so jumped right in. The Innovator is the third book in the WaterFyre Rising series. It is a forced proximity enemies to lovers tale. Even though this is the third book in the series each book can be read as standalones. This contemporary romance is a suspenseful tale with danger and dark secrets that may just destroy it all. Gray was burned before and it is still leaving a bitter taste with him. He is safe from heartache as he has built walls around his heart with reinforced steel. Or so he thought. Nat is out to save her family’s legacy but wonders if it is all worth it when you are working with an arrogant SOB. When tensions are at breaking point she discovers much more than she thought she would find. However, when danger comes calling who will help her? I look forward to what comes next from Nadia.

This is a great book in to add to this series and is really worth the read. I would highly recommend reading the other book sin the series as I honestly think it would add to the overall enjoyment of the book. The characters in this book are complex and interesting, they both have some much going on and yet they just seem to work together perfectly. The overall pace of the book is well done. The author knows how to move the story along and keep you invested in what is happening. I wanted to find out how these characters would make it work and I wanted to know more about them. This was an enjoyable book that I would recommend.

Natalie Chapelle is more than she appears. Natalie is working for the city of Providence, trying to learn information about a building that her father left to her when he passed away, though she is not sure why he would have done so. What Natalie hopes nobody figures out is that the background that got her the job is all a lie, and she is really the heir and designer for a major fashion label in Europe, a family owned company called LaRue. When Natalie first meets Grayson Wu, an architect that is helping the city with a new project, sparks fly as the battle of wills and tempers begins nearly immediately. Both are attracted to one another, but it’s not until they are parent trapped into spending time alone together in a secluded location that they finally allow themselves to give into the lust they feel. Both of them are dealing with a lot of stress and pressure outside of the project they are working together on for the city, but they start a relationship that helps them to both feel more grounded and happy than they have in a long time. When Grayson’s outside business becomes more dangerous, he pushes her away to try and protect her, going as far as sending her back to Paris and her family (with some help) to try and protect her. Once the danger has passed, Grayson hopes to be able to convince Natalie to forgive him. This is a good quick read. It is part of a series, but can be read as a standalone, with plenty of sex and intrigue to keep you reading.

Multi-layered romance This is book 3 in the Waterfyre Rising series and a worthy addition. Each books adds another element to the complexity that is Waterfyre. Grayson and Natalie are very strong characters, each with their own issues they need to face. The forced proximity, enemy to lovers aspect is woven into the suspenseful mystery storyline really well. I enjoy this author’s writing style and even though this can be read as a stand-alone, it’s really adds to the experience having read the previous two books. Highly recommend.

I didn’t think there could be more action in the Waterfyre Rising Series but Nadia Han sure found some. I appreciated this story a lot more than the first of the series. I love how Royce and Michelle come together and fall so quickly while fighting their life’s obstacles.

There is a lot being told in this story and the first few chapters will throw you around and you’ll have a lapse of being lost but if you keep going you’ll catch up quick. A fun romantic but suspenseful love story between a brother’s best friend and the little sister. I really enjoyed the story when I caught up. I can’t wait to read about the following love stories of the Waterfyre Rising Series.
