Publisher's summary

Rosie Harlow is desperately seeking… well, she’s not sure. A romance would be nice but so would a dinner conversation with her pre-teen son. Too bad her boy is way too busy growing up to pay his mama any attention. Rosie never meant to swear off men and she’s not frigid—you don’t become a single mom at fifteen by being frigid—but this dry spell of hers has gotten out of hand and something must be done.

Enter Amon Parrish. Back in high school Amon was voted most likely to get caught with his pants down. He was a trouble maker. The quintessential bad boy. But twelve years away from home, traveling the world and working with Collin Creed doing super-secret (and somewhat illegal) things, changed all that. These days Amon Parrish is a brand-new, stand-up man.

And, to Rosie’s surprise, a romantic man as well. Because he has decided to court her. And this is not just any ordinary courting, either. It’s… well, a page ripped right out of a bodice ripper.

But everyone in Disciple, West Virginia has a secret in their past.

Even the cheerful, perpetually optimistic, and seemingly innocent, Rosie Harlow.

The Echo on the Water is a swooning plate of small-town fiction served up with a side of spice. It honors the themes of friends to lovers, found family, and is filled with bigger-than-life, morally-grey characters against a backdrop of the weird and wonderful.

A Life Less Ordinary

I really enjoyed listening to this one and I felt even more “pulled in” to the life in Trinity. Rosie is a firecracker and as a single mom I cheered for her all the way! Also, JA’s EOBS had me tuned in. I’m a fellow equestrian who took a time out and just returned to riding this past year. Make time for the things that make you happy. Just a whole lot of what Julie said struck home with me. Thank you for writing books for all of us!

I loved it!

I didn’t think I could love characters more than the rumble characters but Amon and Rosie are the best. Great narrators in this book also. The world Julie is creating is amazing and I can’t wait to start the next book

I absolutely love the romance 💘

Oh my goodness!! Amon Parish is every woman’s dream romance all wrapped up in a hot ex-marine, dog 🐕 loving trainer who happens to be part owner of one questionable elite security company located on an old abandoned mine, that’s been turned into some sort of military compound.

He has set his eyes on Rosie Harlow and has turned all his charm into courting her and he is swooning the pants right off every woman around watching, including Rosie ♥️♥️

Rosie is, according to Amon, every man’s dream with her adorably cute smile, outfits and dirty talking phrases she says to him and her occasionally slu**y clothes mixed with her prim and proper clothes to play the part in Bishop, Disciple and Reverent town parts.

I absolutely loved reading this story, it had all of the over the top romance 💘, humor and a bit of mystery going on and it can be read as a standalone, but if you really want to know all the side character stories, then you’ll want to also read the first book in the series, The Rumble and The Glory.

Listening to the audiobook of this story, read by Teddy Hamilton & Ava Erickson, these narrators delivered an excellent story and completely pulled me into the story!

Another great series is born!

Initially series was a little slow to start but once it got going I was hooked! Listened to
Both books in 2 days and have pre-ordered the 3rd. It does have a company feel but with a twist. JA Huss never Disappoints! Definitely worth the credits!

Painting Stories with Words

J A Huss has created a world that I could never have imagined. Her characters and settings are so alive before these amazing narrators get ahold of them, that the colorful story explodes through the Southern Accents of Teddy Hamilton and Ava Erickson. In this world is love, hope, heartbreak and intrigue. I can’t wait for the next book. Also don’t skip the EBOS! It is as brilliant as the book!

The ups, downs & thrills of the story

I haven’t found any of Julie’s stories that I haven’t absolutely loved! I find her concept & story of these towns being more of a play where everyone has a roll to play & no one can move in from the outside. And how the character Jim Bob Baptist is technically the mayor but was never elected & is actually the iron fist that runs this circus. I just love Rosie & her quirky yet lovable ways and Amen, the strong mysterious man that comes into her life. Their quick but intense romance & how Amen comes to the rescue. Thank you Julie for yet another amazing story that popped out from the many bubbles that is your mind.

And the plot thickens...

A small town with juicy secrets? Yes, please! And a "touch her and die" alpha? Swoon. If you're into that friends-to-lovers, slow-burn kinda thing with a side of steamy, this book might be your new obsession.

Great continuation of the series

These characters and this location is so fun. Trinity county is just a place I’m ready to see and I love the idea of all 3 towns. The intrigue is unusual and historical enough to keep my attention. The spicy stuff is better. Can’t wait for the next book in the series. Huss always seems to expand her worlds way past where you think they could go.

The performances were both good. Not usually a fan of Teddy Hamilton, but he’s actually not bad with a southern accent. It’s causing him to use his lower register, which is a necessity in any romance audiobook. Ava did a very nice job and was enjoyable.

Loving this series

I’m really loving this series. This is book two and I may love Amon a little more than Collin. Him courting Rosie was just the cutest and I found myself smiling throughout most of the book. There is some drama and mystery in this book, which made me love it more. I want to know what is in those canisters and what exactly is going on underground.

I will definitely listen to this book again. Teddy Hamilton is one of my favorite narrators and did an amazing job, along with Ava Erickson.

You won’t be disappointed purchasing this audiobook.

Great Continuation of an amazing new series!

I absolutely adore Amon and Rosie! They are a match made in heaven! The mystery unfolds in some ways while becoming more convoluted in other ways. This is a must listen to series, and as always, perfectly narrated!
