Echoes of Silence (Unquiet Mind Book 1) Kindle Edition

People make love seem complicated. Intricate. Novels try to capture its intensity; music tries to rein in its soul.
I’ve read every novel I could. I’ve lived and breathed every song that I could listen to. The sounds fill my unquiet mind.
Then he came.
Killian.
He brought with him the beauty of silence that echoes through my soul and showed me love isn’t complicated. It’s simple. Beautiful.
Some say love at first sight doesn’t exist, that you can’t find your soul mate at sixteen years old. Those are people rooted in reality, chained to the confines of life that dictates how you are meant to think. Killian broke those chains. He broke everything, shattered it so I can see that reality is overrated, that daydreams can somehow come to life.
My life tumbled into darkness in the time after I met him, so dark I’m not sure I’ll ever see the light again. But he is always at my side. His life means he knows how to navigate the dark and he can lead me out.
I wade through the darkness with him at my side.
We’ll be together forever; I’m certain of that.
Until I’m not.


Note: This is book one of two. Killian and Lexie's story does not end here and will be continued in a following book.

About the Author

Anne Malcom has been an avid reader since before she can remember, her mother responsible for her love of reading. It started with magical journeys into the world of Hogwarts and Middle Earth, then as she grew up her reading tastes grew with her. Her love of reading doesn't discriminate, she reads across many genres, although classics like Little Women and Gone with the Wind will hold special places in her heart. She also can't get enough romance, especially when some possessive alpha males throw their weight around. One day, in a reading slump, Cade and Gwen's story came to her and started taking up space in her head until she put their story into words. Now that she has started, it doesn't look like she's going to stop anytime soon, with many more characters demanding their story be told as well. Raised in small town New Zealand, Anne had a truly special childhood, growing up in one of the most beautiful countries in the world. She has backpacked across Europe, ridden camels in the Sahara and eaten her way through Italy, loving every moment. For now, she's back at home in New Zealand and quite happy. But who knows when the travel bug will bite her again.

5.0 out of 5 stars Amazing young love!
Reviewed in the United States on January 27, 2018

I was so excited to see that these two would get their own story after being introduced in original series, Sons of Templar. The SoT helped me to fall deep into the Anne Malcom writing series and this book just helps to keep the fascination growing!!!!

Killian and Lexie start their journey in this book and we get to officially see how they grew aside from Lexie's introduction in her mom's SoT journey. Lexie and Killian will move you and make you cry with the poignant and yet heart warming romance of young love. The cliffhanger made my heart catch in my throat but I promise, reading on to the next book is definitely worth it.

It is quite true that Killian and Lexie are soulmates and two halves of one whole unit, but in order to truly understand love you have to go through trial by fire. Unfortunately, love is never easy and some trials tend to lead us into the abyss for a bit.

I fell in love with Lexi and Killian in Out of the Ashes which is part of the Sons of Templar MC series. I could not wait to read their story. You do not have to have read that book before this one although I cannot stress and recommend highly enough that you should read everything Anne Malcom writes because she is amazing.
Also please remember that this is Book 1 in the Unquiet Mind series and the conclusion to Lexie and Killian's story is the book Skeletons Of Us and it is out now.
As we begin Echoes of Silence Killian and Lexie meet for the first time. For those of you who have read Out of the Ashes you will recognize their initial meeting. What transpires through the rest of the book is their relationship over a two year period. One of the things that I loved about this book was revisiting some scenes that were part of Out of the Ashes but we did not get to see all of the conversation and in Echoes of Silence we do. I do not want to give any spoilers away but I will just say that the course of true love never did run smooth (at least that is a saying I always used to hear when I was younger and it applies here).
This was a terrific book with a hot alpha and his beautiful feisty heroine. One-click Echoes of Silence today to begin Lexie and Killian's love story.

Just really sad to see a guy who is immature in love to hurt someone he promised to never hurt and left her to the dangers of the industry. Considering he is with other women the love doesn't go beyond the lust.

I am making my way through Anne's catalog and have had my eye on this swries. Now, I have not read Sons of Templar yet for some reason, but I didn't need it to understand the story. Lexi and her mom moved to the town, and Zane is their neighbor who takes immediate notice. Lexis and her mom remind me of a more badass Gilmore girls mom and daughter duo. Her mom had her very young, they took their car to zanes shop and she met Killian. A son of a fallen mc member and will someday be a patched member. Its immediate connection. She is 16, and he is 17, but he lives a hard life. This book took too much breaths away other than some heavy making out that is all the spice, but I didn't care. The way their friendship starts and how protective of her from.hia dark life was so gut-wrenching. I love mc Romances due to found family, and they welcome her and her mom so quickly, especially since Zane wants her. Therr si mc action, politics, first love, and almost fated mates vibes. I loved lexi she is so creative, and she loved books and music. She uses music to touch people, and everyone knows she is going to be a star one day. I was in laughs, tears, and tense to see how this unfolded. The end is a cliffhanger of the past, and the second book is the continuation of now their story. I read it all night and wouldn't change a thing.

5.0 out of 5 stars Loving Killan and Lexie
Reviewed in the United States on August 27, 2019

I swear every time I finish an Anne Malcolm book I fall more in love with her words, you know that when you start one of her novels you know you are going to get a full novel of beautiful words.

As we had already met Killian and Lexie in a previous book I wasn’t sure where this story was going to go but when I realised that we were basically getting Lexies story along side a novel in the Son’s Of Templer novel and this was exciting because then you could get everyones story and point of view.

I loved how intense Killan and Lexie were without being too much or full on and it wasn’t all about sex and I loved that, this was a story of young love and how they grow together and really show us what true love was.

I loved Killian he was very protective but that’s what you get when a boy is turning into a man and all he wants is to be a member of the SOT, he was such a beautiful soul for the hand that he had been dealt with a father that died to earlier and his mum who was never really a mum.

Lexie was such an amazing soul, I loved her and her mums banter and loved that they were best friends and had the best relationship that Have read for a mother and daughter, even though Lexie didn’t have a dad I loved how she was happy and nothing terrible had happened to her, this story certainly changed that and you really saw her grow especially with her music. I loved her and Bulls relationship that was also so special.

I loved the music aspect of this novel and has introduced me some new music which is amazing as I love music just as much as reading. I really loved Lexies band members they were the sweetest boys and they were so funny I have a special spot for them and can’t wait to read more about that.

As you can tell I absolutely loved this story and the fact we get more Killian and Lexie I am excited but sad at the same, even though I had a feeling how this book would end it still broke my heart and I can’t wait to get into the next story.

Loved loved this story and super excited for more.

I'm shattered...
This is the beautiful story of Killian and Freckles, how they first met and how their love blossomed and bloomed.

You meet both in 'Out of Ashes' the story of Mia and Zane, Lexie is Mia's daughter and that is where we first meet Killian.
Anne luckily for us fans decided to write a two book series on Killian and Lexie.

I really don't want to spoil it for anyone as this isn't a book to spoil, it's a book to dive in, not knowing how it's going to begin or end.
I will say one thing that is does has a cliffhanger but luckily the 2nd 'Skeletons of Us' is already out! So that's where I'm heading now! Off into the world of Killian and Freckles!

5.0 out of 5 stars My favourite YA novel to date!
Reviewed in Canada on August 27, 2016
Verified Purchase
Malcom wrote this story as a YA novel, which tells the sweet romance between 16yo Lexie and bad boy Killian.

If you are familiar with the Sons of Templar series, Lexie is the daughter of Mia, who was featured in the third novel. She and Killian were so enchanting as secondary characters that they have sparked their own novels. Although I would recommend reading the series in its entirety, Echoes could be read as a stand-alone.

Surprisingly, Echoes of Silence was my favourite novel so far by Malcom! I didn’t expect this because I usually read dark romances (so not YA!) and worried that there would be too much re-telling from Out of the Ashes.

The witty banter that I loved in the mother’s book was still present, but few scenes were retold from a different perspective. Reading Echoes made me realize how much was missed from her story before, and Killian in particular I got to know so much better. He is the son of a deceased club member and has been largely raised by the club since childhood due to maternal neglect.

Lexie’s musicality and her band feature heavily throughout and it a key defining tone of the book, particularly in the conclusion. I love that after the story, the author included a “playlist” because I was trying to mentally keep track while reading to go back and listen to the songs that made such an impact to the characters.

5.0 out of 5 stars Such a strong love story, for two so young!
Reviewed in Canada on October 15, 2020

This was a great POV of Lexie and Killian, whom we met in a previous Sons of Templar book - but from their young minds.

I just loved the way Killian treated Lexie 'Freckles', he was just so kind, but with everyone else he was a hard and edgy eighteen year old soon to be Prospect for the MC. Her mother was her best friend, who was involved with an patched member, Bull, of the same MC, glad they were with these guys, cause when the past comes back, viciously, the MC steps in, with some help from 'Five-O', to save Mia from certain misdeeds. Lexie's music dreams are realized, with a recording contract for her band, but with that comes unforeseen heartbreak from Killian.

So sad!!

I'm doing a re read of this series and I realised I didn't write a review, bad reader.

This is the first of two books so yes it's a cliffhanger but don't let that deter you because the pain is worth it. I loved the mix of YA, bikers and fledgling rock stars. The author managed to integrate all the aspects of the story seamlessly. Killian and Lexie's story spans two years and as you can imagine there is lots of angst. Love all the other characters who are central to the story.

We met these characters in Out of Ashes and I couldn't wait for more of them. I snapped up this book as soon as I realised it was out. Lexie and Killian share the kind of love story that people dream about. Theirs is a story that makes you believe in love. Beautiful dialogue, real character growth and a genuinely sweet story about characters you will grow to genuinely care about.
