Your Echo: The cruelest second chance at love. (Gatlin Series) Kindle Edition

4.5 out of 5 stars 78 ratings

The cruelest secondchance at love.

My soul shattered the day I left the city for a quieter life.
Gatlin Falls promised anonymity. A place where I could be just the new girl, not the broken girl.
I tried so hard to keep my head down and my walls up.
But the thing about small towns is that eventually someone gets too close, and feelings come into play.
Dormant feelings.
Ones I fought so hard to keep at bay.
Cue, Banks Gatlin. The third brother of six and frustratingly persistent.
The one that kissed me without an introduction.
The one that had my heart skipping and wracked with guilt every time he smiled.
And the one that received his second chance at life the day my first love lost his.



Your Echo is a steamy, wrenching, frenemies to lovers, small-town romance.
The
Gatlin Brothers Series will be 6 interlinked books that can be read as complete standalones.

*Intended for readers
18+.
*Tr!gger warning—self-h4rm and organ recipient.

    All the feels from grief through to sadness and tears, changed up with full-on explosive laughter and snickering, Vi Summers will give her readers a full tour of their feelings with this first book in her Gatlin Brothers Series, YOUR ECHO.

    I know this to be true, because this was me while reading this truly amazingly written book that captured me from front to back, and everywhere in between. The pairing of Simone and Banks as a reverse Grumpy-Sunshine with a side of He-falls-first, means that YOUR ECHO made it into what will be one of my top ten reads for 2023.

    My heart broke for Simone’s private hell – the sudden death of her fiancé and the debilitating grief she continued to deal with afterward. TW’s aside, Ms Summer’s wrote her POV with sensitivity and understanding, and she took her role as an advocate for Simone seriously. Not only did she suffer that great loss, but also betrayal at the hands of his parents soon after, all of which got on top of her. Kasey, her best friend was an amazing secondary character, supportive yet non-judgemental, and as crazy as a bumfull of Smarties!!! Just what Simone needed, and even better to know that she caught the eye of another Gatlin brother.

    Simone’s first impression of Banks was to label him as a handsome eye-catching psychopath, and maced him with pepper spray in a hilarious scene of mis-understanding. On his part, he was instantly smitten and was determined to make it into her good graces, whether she wanted him there on not!

    Holy crap on a cracker but I loved Banks so freaking much!! Impulsive, honourable, open and honest, he was the whole damn package! His new thing was to seize the moment, which usually meant getting himself into some trouble, but his charm easily mitigated most circumstances, and I loved every moment that he was on the pages. His patience and determination to unconditionally take care of and to ultimately love Simone is everything that makes a successful romance, and when it is paired with a heavy chemistry between the characters topped with a heavy dose of heartbreak and angst, then it made for an epic read.

    Such beautiful words maketh this book great. Check one of my favourite quotes from Banks to Simone; and her reply *sigh* 💕

    “You came into my world like a storm blowing in across the lake. Beautiful. Wild. Black and blue and utterly breathtaking. I love storms.” Understanding of my metaphor showed in her eyes, and her whispered reply melted me. “I’m growing to like the shore more with each passing day. Maybe even love it a little.”

    If only the path of true love was as smooth as the writing of Author Vi Summers ...

    Seriously, I loved this book so much and I can’t wait to be reading the next one featuring one of these sexy Gatlin Brothers!!! 5-Hella-Romantic-STARS ♥★ღ

    The pain and grief that this book highlights are no joke; they are portrayed raw and intensely. Please be kind to yourself and check the TWs before reading.

    Banks and Simone's story was as beautiful as it was heart-wrenching.
    Mrs Summers managed to craft both sides exquisitely.
    The emotions bled from the pages, both the good and the hard.

    There were moments of levity throughout the book—once you meet Banks and Simone's bestie, Kase, you'll understand—moments that made me laugh and cackle like crazy, moments that stole my breath and moments that made me ache for the characters.

    I adored this introduction to Gatlin Falls, meeting the characters and getting a feel for the town.
    I'm already excited to see whose book is next.

    Oh how I loved this book. This author killed it with this one. Simone and Banks are a fantastic couple. This book had so many emotions in it from heart wrenching, learning to cope with death and then finding love again. Simone was awesome, this author brought her to life and you felt every thing she felt, every emotion. And omg I absolutely loved Banks he was quite the character. Talking about a child at heart but definitely all man. This book was phenomenal and I absolutely loved it. I can't wait to read about the other brothers. I can already tell they are going to be fantastic. Highly recommend this book.

    Banks was everything you’d expect and want from an alpha. But he also had a sweet caring, I wear my heart on my sleeve side too. So he was the perfect combination of alpha and cinnamon roll!! Simone was just the kind of lost that makes one feel as if they will never been found or truly seen again. It takes the guy with just the right heart and soul to turn things around for her though!!!! Banks is certainly up for the challenge and I am so glad I was along for the ride!! Loved this story!!!

    When first starting this book I immediately felt this incredible feeling of relaxation—like putting on your comfy clothes. I knew this story was going to be a good one because it intrigued me and I loved the sense of fun, even at the beginning.

    Your Echo is the first book in the Gatlin Brothers series set in The small town of Gatlin Falls. That’s the best news because there will be five more books to come. Yay! It is the romance between Banks Gatlin, the third brother in his family, and Simone Jamison, the new girl in town, and one that didn’t bode well at the beginning. 😆

    Banks is one very upbeat, persistent guy who is resilient in his quest to get to know Simone. His approach might not be conventional in many ways but due to his determination you have to give him quite a few points. I really like him, he has a generous nature and a heart of gold. He feels things deeply and genuinely cares about others… it’s just that he acts before thinking at times. 😁

    Simone is a character who, in my opinion, is very needy—but rightly so. Having lost the love of her life she is now floating in the breeze trying to find something to anchor her. Whether Gatlin Falls is the place or not I think she is very brave to move to an unfamiliar place and try to start over again. Banks could just be that anchor if she lets him. They certainly have lots of chemistry but of course guilt is a huge obstacle and an evil curse.

    Although there are some extremely serious elements in this story with some agonising angst, there is some terrific humour too. With a character like Banks how could there not be? Then there’s Simone’s friend Kasey, who is a lot of fun too. To be fair all of the secondary characters are wonderful.

    This story has a quirky but beautiful romance, some interest elements that make you think about real life issues, a great sense of fun and some intense drama-filled moments that make you read as fast as possible. I totally recommend it to all who enjoy stories that leave you feeling fantastic.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Such a difficult one to read. But worth it.

    This was possibly one of hardest books I have ever read. Not because I didn’t like it, but because it called to me on a personal level.
    Simone moves to a small town in an attempt to find her peace after grieving the loss of her fiancé. Simone is a broken shell, her pain is so deep she’s literally drowning in it and it’s so hard to bear witness to her desperation. She, like many others develop the unhealthy coping mechanism of self harm. This features a lot in this book so readers please read with caution if you are triggered by this. I applaud the author whole heartedly for how she has approached a very difficult storyline. She’s not only done it in a sensitively way, she’s done it in an authentic way. Giving voice and reason to those that have self harmed and helping disparage the misconception of ‘attention seeking’ and ‘cry for help’
    In Simones journey to finding peace in her grief, she meets Banks who is also dealing with his own demons. Banks is immediately taken with Simone and upon discovering her secret, he vows to help her and support her whilst falling in love with her. Halfway through the book though you start to get a clear idea of what’s about to happen, and it adds to the angst as you find yourself dreading what’s to come.
    All I can say is that this book is one that’ll inevitably stick with me for a long time.
