Echoes of Us

De: Alex Cross

Narrado por: Patrick Mealey

Atticus King had his life mapped out—train hard, play volleyball, keep to himself. That is, until Noah Rossi burst onto the scene: charismatic, impulsive, a storm that tore through Atticus's carefully built walls and set his world on fire. They didn't fit—Noah was everything Atticus wasn't—but somehow, they found a rhythm in their shared love for the game and an undeniable pull toward each other. It was everything Atticus never knew he wanted.

But just as quickly as Noah entered his life, he disappeared. No explanation. No goodbye. Only silence that left Atticus drowning in confusion and pain.

Two years later, Noah walks back into Atticus's world as if nothing ever happened, stirring up old feelings Atticus has tried to bury. The bond they shared is undeniable, but so is the hurt that lingers beneath the surface. Why did Noah leave? And can they rebuild something from the shattered pieces of their past?

Love isn't easy. But for Atticus and Noah, it might be the only thing worth fighting for.

A beautiful 2nd chance romance that will break your heart and put it back together

Echoes of Us is a heart wrenching second chance college romance told from the POV of Atticus King. It has a dual timeline that goes back and forth between before and after (2 years) his break up with his first love Noah Rossi. This story beautifully delves into themes about dealing with addiction, grief, and toxic codependency when all all those things pile up but you find yourself falling in love anyways. The dual timeline does an excellent job of building up their relationship while also showing you all the tidbits to where it started going wrong all to come full circle at the end. The best way I can describe this book is that it will break your heart and put it back together by the end so make sure to stick it out.

Patrick Mealey does an excellent job of narrating as Atticus King, he was clear and concise and managed to wrench my heart as hard as the first time I read this book. He does a good job of voicing the secondary characters without doing anything over the top to differentiate them.

Brilliantly beautiful

This book is just…sigh…beautiful? Heart achingly stunning? You know that feeling after a good book where the pain in your chest is competing with the smile on your face? Yeah , this one hit me right in the feels. This book deserves an epic review and honestly if I could I would, but I just finished it and I kinda need to lie down and let this feeling linger. If you know, you know. So yes, I would very much recommend not only this book, but this audiobook. It’s added to my favourites folder.

I finished it

I got this book after friends recommended it, but it just shows that everyone has different tastes for me. The only good thing about this book was the narrator. It was hard to get through the story was sad, but it was bland. It didn’t have anything that pulled me in and I felt like the couple didn’t have chemistry ,not love but sick attachment, it’s fine if anyone loves it, but it was in my cup of tea
