The long-awaited sequel to my first Forbidden Affairs book, please read that one first or the storyline won't make sense! 10 weeks on, Y/n is officially part of the BAU team. But not everything is smooth sailing in their relationship with Emily. While they both deal with the fallout of Y/n's abduction, the team catch a break on the Gold Star case, throwing Y/n and Emily even more hurdles. Does distance really make the heart grow fonder? And will Y/n and Emily ever get their happily ever after?

Y/n is about to join the FBI Behavioural Analysis Training Programme led by Section Chief Emily Prentiss. The night before, Y/n decides to blow off some steam at their local bar when they meet a welcome distraction. Little do they know, that one night is about to affect the entire beginning of their new career.

Emily Prentiss must work with Y/N, a private security consultant and ex-military strategist the team distrusts. Sparks fly-in combat, in strategy rooms, and in stolen moments between danger.

Fifteen years after walking away from the FBI, Y/N is pulled back into the BAU's orbit when a brutal new case forces them to confront a past they don't remember. As the team hunts a sadistic psychiatrist who disappeared decades ago, Y/N begins to uncover buried memories of an experiment that was never supposed to be exposed. At the center of it all is Emily Prentiss-former lover, now unit chief, whose past with Y/N is just as unresolved as the mystery unfolding around them. As the case spirals, Y/N and Emily are forced to navigate the thin line between unfinished business and something more. But the past isn't done with either of them. Because the killer has been waiting. And this time, Y/N isn't just hunting him. They're his final experiment. With the BAU racing against time, secrets unravel, old wounds resurface, and Y/N must decide-are they willing to stay and fight, or will they run again? And if they stay-what does that mean for Emily? Dark, intense, and deeply personal, The Echo of Yesterday is a story of second chances, buried trauma, and the fight to reclaim what was stolen.
