My rating: 5 of 5 stars

C. R. Alam has done it once again! True to her nature she has written another steamy, romance novel that follows in The Echo Series. Not only was I excitedly awaiting this newest tale in the series to come out I was so ecstatic to find out it was finally going to find a love interest for the fun-loving Chris Sullens, hotel mogel extraordinaire. I have loved his character since he was introduced in the first Echo Series book when he helped to bring our original love birds together. You will love the fire that burns between Chris Sullens and Rowan Kelly as they fight their obvious attraction to one another, and try not to make a bigger mess out of Rowan’s crumbling inn. Of course, when Rowan has Christ step in to play the role of her loving fiance will the fireworks go off, or will the two kill each other first? Read on to see what ensues…

I was waiting for this book to be released so I could read it. After the much anticipated wait I gotta say 10 out of 10 . Definitely Tied with the second book as my favorite of the series is so far. C.R Alam is amazing. She is hitting all of my favorite tropes when reading. I’m looking forward to seeing more of the new characters that were introduced in the book.the author really gets you to feel every emotion the characters feel. I love it ❤️waiting for the next installment

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

The third book in the Echo series which I think was the best of the three books in the series. This book brought together family connected by blood and by truth filled friendships. Rowan Kelly is working on bringing the the family Inn back to its glory as a promise to her father. Her brother has managed to create a working farm on their land on a quaint Maine island. When Chris Sullens appears on the island to meet Rowan and her brother to help mediate to bring together meeting his friend, things take a turn no one expected. What could go wrong when Chris offers to help with the preparations for a wedding in 2 weeks?

The author has done it again! Her writing is not just about romance but about the whole dynamic of the main characters Chris and Rowan but all the new and interesting friends that come along to create a world the reader can imagine being in. I sure hope that the author has a few more books in the works for the Echo series!

This is the third instalment of The Echo series; This series can be read as standalones as each book focuses on a different couple.

Once again, the author has created vivid imagery of both the scenery and the characters. I found myself picturing each scene with ease and feeling like I had stepped into the story to join them. The writing style used was smooth and flowed very well, making the experience more enjoyable.

I must say that the fake relationship books are up there in my favourites so I was already loving this book before even properly starting!

I loved Rowan and Chris; they had such chemistry! I was most certainly rooting for them all the way through reading.
I enjoyed reading about the inn and seeing Rowan and Chris work together and the attempts to remain profession were so sweet.
I didn’t have a favourite as I loved both Rowan and Chris equally, they both were strong individual characters.

I found this book the most heart-warming and my favourite so far in the series! I will be looking out for mor by this author.

I love when books intertwine with other books! It gets me in my feels! A fake relationship trope is another favorite of mine and I love the drama and angst it brings while reading it. Makes the HEA that much better. Huge page turner for me and the entire thing was great! I couldn’t put it down. I read this book in one sitting so if that doesn’t tell you that it’s good, idk what will lol. Check this series out! You won’t regret it.

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.

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.

Another really sweet romance from this author! I don’t want to say too much for fear of spoiling anything, but it was an enjoyable read from start to finish.

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.

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?

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!

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 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.

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 !

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.

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’m having a hard time coming up with the words to adequately describe my feelings on this book aside from I loved it.

Rowan and Chris worked so well together and the sparks between them flew almost instantly and it only got hotter as they spent more time together.

Once again there is some suspense with all of the weird stuff happening, some laugh out loud moments especially when Alex was around and then there were some incredibly hot moments like the massage…..

I have been so impressed with this series and this author and I look forward to one clicking as soon as I see her name.

Wow I managed to go straight into book three of this series and I was not disappointed. <br />Again we find the characters from the previous 2 books all making appearances as Chris finds it is his time to have his story told. Rowan needs a knight to step up and be her partner in a fake relationship.<br />There is certainly chemistry, and the well written banter between the characters that I have come to enjoy from this author. The story is interwoven with the previous stories (as with His Forever Muse book 2 in the series).<br />The author continues to give us romance with a twist, angst and emotions. I feel that it can be read as part pf the series or as a stand alone. Personally in the series you get to see the bigger picture and get a full feel for how the author builds their worlds.

The third book in The Echo Series and this is Chris and Rowan’s story. We met Chris in previous books and I was glad he got his own book. The banter and chemistry between Chris and Rowan and the added mystery kept me glued from start until finish. I loved the cameos from characters from the previous books and how everything was cleverly woven together. Highly recommend this book and the whole series.

Rowan Kelly and her family are enjoying refurbishing their family farm and Inn. With her brother Kieran running the farm and making it a success, the building work is going along on the Inn which is her domain. When one night her Dad decides to divulge a secret which rocks the family but also leaves Rowan and her brother in limbo.

Chris is visiting the Farm and Inn which Rae has been informed that she has a third in, but that her siblings are just getting over the shock of her arrival on the scene, so as Rae’s friend he offered to scope out the Inn and see what is going on.

Once Chris arrives he is instantly drawn to Rowan and with things mysteriously going wrong at the Inn and trying to cater for Rowan’s cousin’s wedding, can they find the saboteur and making the wedding a success in a matter of weeks. All trying to juggle Rae arriving and a fake engagement, you will have to delve in to find out.

I love this series and was waiting for Chris’s book as he has flitted in and out of the past two books you don’t really get to the bones of the man until this book. This can be read as a stand alone book as the author does reference some information from previous stories which enhances and adds information to this story.

I loved the chemistry between these two characters and that at first they were prickly to each other but as they got to know each other you are just willing them to believe they are meant for each other. I loved the secondary characters and would love to read Kieran’s story in the next book.

Rowan has inherited her family’s inn and wants to prove herself worthy. What better way to do that than to plan an amazing wedding for her cousin?!? Even though the inn might not be fully ready…and she doesn’t quite have the staff she needs…she (begrudgingly, at first) accepts the help of a stranger.

Chris comes to the island on vacation, and as a favor to a friend to check on the inn. What he doesn’t plan on doing is helping to plan a wedding and pretending to be the fiancé of the inn’s owner. He also doesn’t plan on the intense attraction the two have. But, when things start to get crazy, will Chris and Rowan be able to work together to get to the bottom of it?

I was really rooting for these two. This book has so much going on…love, loss, grief, drama, banter, angst, fake relationship, sabotage, healing…the list goes on and on. The author does such a good job at keeping you guessing til the end and making these characters feel so real. As the third book in the series…it can definitely be read as a standalone. However, C.R. Alam leaves lots of little gems in this book that refer to previous books in the series. This is a good book that I enjoyed reading.

5 Stars 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

This is a great read and a great series. Unexpected Entanglement is book 3 in the Echo Series, and I highly recommend reading this series as characters are tied in throughout the book, and I would have to say this while I loved all the books this would be my favorite story. I loved Chris and Rowan.
Spark, sizzle, fake relationship with banter, secrets, suspicion, drama, unexplained “accidents” and healing.

Chris Sullens, planned a vacation spot in Vinalhaven and a bit away from work as a successful hotel owner…but upon coming onto the island, he meets a fiery, Rowan Kelley. Chris’ plans also including to help out Rowan and her brother Kieran with their Inn, especially coming from experience….but this help at first comes with much questions and push-back.

Rowan wants to prove she can run her family owned Inn successfully…she is so determined. Things change unexpectedly with a loss, but it does not deter Rowan to fulfilling her family legacy and keep the Inn going. When Chris Sullens shows up to help, with at first hesitation, she ends up learning so much more. Rowan is determined more than ever to have the best wedding for her friend at the Inn…but when strange things start happening at the Inn…..will Rowan be able to have the wedding that she planned for her cousin be successful while working with Chris as they also navigate their feelings?

This is such a fantastic read, I highly recommend! This story gave me all the feels as I devoured each page and I am looking forward to reading more from this author.

Rowan Kelly has inherited an inn and she’s super excited to host her cousin’s wedding there. Everything has to be perfect and beautiful for the big day. Rowan can handle just about anything that is put in her way but having an extra hand or two never hurts!

Insert Chris Sullens. Chris is a well-known hotelier who is more than happy to dig in and help Rowan make this wedding the best ever. What he didn’t expect is the role that he’d be asked to play in order this wedding to go off WITH a hitch!

This is probably my favorite book of this series so far! There is an overlap of some characters from previous books (it was good to catch up on them!) but this book can be read as a standalone easily. I look forward to seeing where this series continues to go!

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

Unexpected Entanglement (Book 3 of the Echo Series)Unexpected Entanglement by C.R. Alam
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Alam definitely knows how to build love chemistry between her characters and she has done it yet again! Absolutely loved the previous two books and fell in love with this one as well! This story has to do with Rowan, who becomes an unexpected wedding planner as she helps out her cousin. Even though things are not turning out as planned, she is trying to keep her head held high and making the best of it. None other than the handsome Chris Sullens turns up at the hotel where wedding planning is underway and ends up helping her. As their attraction and planning come to be, other things are unraveled. Don’t want to give much away because this book is a must read! This series is amazing and I’m sure many others will feel the same way too! Happy Reading!

Unexpected Entanglement (The Echo Series Book 3) by C.R. Alam – Review by Manda Kelly- 2023
Oh WOW!
This is my 1st read from this author and I was NOT disappointed. I instantly fell in love with the leading female character. She is strong and stubborn and everything I look for in a leading lady. Our leading man was no let down either. I was instantly drawn to their chemistry. I felt their attraction. I knew without a doubt that this story was going to leave me wanting more, and it DID. I want to live in this world. I want to befriend these characters. I need to visit the Inn and befriend that townspeople. C.R. Alam has done an AMAZING job of creating a place you WANT to be, and I am here to tell you, I WANT TO BE THERE. Thank you so much for creating a world for us to get lost in.
