5 Stars

Major spoilers ahead, proceed with caution.

An Echo in the Sorrow is the second to last book of the Soulbound series written by Hailey Turner. It starts a while after the last book ended. Jono's pack is slowly gaining more members and territory in New York. Yousef and Estelle, of course, are not making it easy for Jono and Patrick. After a murder, Patrick is put under arrest. His whole life is out for the public to know which puts him under some watchful eyes. As usual, the gods get in the way of everything and makes the pack's lives much harder. Jono and Patrick’s soulbond is tested harder than ever. And Patrick’s grandmother and only living relative now knows he is alive. What else can go wrong?

I absolutely love Wade in this book. He is so protective over Patrick and it is absolutely adorable. He even shares his food with Patrick, which says a lot. You see him come into his dragon power more in this book. Poor Patrick is put through the wringer in the book. Emotionally and physically. I am not quite sure how much more he can take. While being a mage, he is basically still human. I know the gods need him so they will not let him die, right? Jono really shows his strength in this book. Both in his feelings for Patrick and how he cares for his pack.

This book does not end with a cliffhanger which I liked but it does leave me thinking about the next book... the last book. Just thinking the next book is the last makes me so sad. What else can Hailey Turner put our favorite pack through? They have to have a happy ever after, right? She isn’t that evil, is she? There are so many things I hope will happen and there are so many things Hailey Turner can make happen, which scares me. I cannot wait for the next book. Patrick and Jono have to be one of my favorite couples of all time and this book left me with a heck of a book hangover. Hurry up October so I can know how this ends.
