Book #2 from the series: Secret Minders

Echoing Secrets

About

All magic leaves a mark.

Prince Arran’s fight to cope with the secrets that left him the new leader of his kingdom has just begun. The past holds him hostage. An apparition with Ryla’s voice and piercing stare haunts him. All while Nithle stands mostly empty despite his efforts to rebuild. Then, the Union takes another baby.

The hunt for why leads Arran to Lavanai, a place he never thought he’d step foot in, let alone seek aid from. While the once-enemy land’s ruler is welcoming, Arran finds himself navigating Lavanian politics and working alongside those responsible for his parents’ and protector’s deaths to uncover the Union’s latest ploy.

As his memories, Ryla’s ghost, and the weight of trying to protect all he cares about threaten to crush him, Arran knows he must hold himself together. Even if it means doing the unthinkable.

Praise for this book

Not again! Thank you, Laura A. Barton, for that ending and dropping another bombshell! This was an amazing book. My favourite part was Arran’s mental journey. His everyday struggles were so well written with such details that I felt all the emotions. His despair. His pain. The writing was exceptionally powerful! I am excited to find out where this story is heading next!

Amazing book. Literally everyone needs to read this series 😫

this has been my most anticipated read ever since I read the first book and I'm so glad the author sent me an arc copy!!
first off, the love story between Arran and Adel is the sweetest and strongest I've read in so long. You can't help but root for these two. I love that the events of the first book were still prominent and explained the main characters actions while moving the plot forward. Even characters that were deemed villainous in the first book become well loved main characters.
I learned with the first book to really stick through a slow beggining because once it picks up it REALLY gets good!!!
And the ending?!!! loved it. 👏🏻👏🏻
