Echoes of Silence by Indie Black | Book Review
Echoes of Silence by Indie Black Genres: Dark Romance
A dull-eyed girl, broken and alone,
living in a world drenched in violence.
Her story begins with bloodline sins,
and no one to save her from the echoes of silence.Wren
I haven’t spoken in four years. Not a scream, not a cry, not a whimper. I learned a long time ago—the punishment for speaking out against my tormentors isn’t a price I’m willing to pay.
Not again.Forged in darkness and controlled in silence, I was caged for other’s twisted perversions. It wasn’t until four dark knights swooped in and sliced through the ropes binding me that I was finally free. They were supposed to be my saviors, but I was wrong. So. Incredibly. Wrong. The men who purchased me from my father are monsters—worse than those who haunt the shadows of my past.
At first, they whispered sweet promises of freedom, but now they say I’m theirs to keep. To own. I’m nothing more than a prisoner once again. Only this time, I might not need saving. Especially when their brand of darkness soothes the shattered pieces of my poisoned soul, and sets my desire for vengeance ablaze.
*Echoes of Silence is a DARK contemporary retelling of The Ugly Duckling, and 1 of 14 novels releasing in the Twisted Tales collection. It's a depraved, gritty, and raw romance that contains scenes that may be triggering to some. The FMC is beautifully broken, yet undeniably fierce. Her dark knights are depraved and possessive, delighting in pushing her past her breaking point. This novel comes with massive triggers, so please heed the warning. Beware, it does end in a cliffhanger.

I received this book for free from in exchange for an honest review. This does not affect my opinion of the book or the content of my review.
This book was so good from beginning to end, even with the story being so raw and just so brutal at times. Wren is rescued by four friends who pay for and take in abused women. After everything she has been through, getting her beyond that abuse isn’t easy.
Kodiak, Havoc, Hush, and Nix understand just how difficult it will be to help Wren not only trust them, but anyone again. They each bring something different to the story, as well as to Wren herself.
The subject matter for this story is heavy, and although it is dark, there are some funny moments thanks to Havoc. I mean, who would have thought a guy named Havoc could be so funny? I think those moments with him, I think, are what made the book enjoyable.
If it had just been the dark and heavy moments that make up a good portion of the book, I wouldn’t have enjoyed it as much as I did.

It sounds very emotional and I think I would really enjoy it.
