Reviewed by Frank Mutuma for Readers’ Favorite In Silent Echoes by Crystal Mary Lindsey,
Dr. Faith Lancaster is a junior doctor when she meets Dr. Kaleb, who is much older and an experienced surgeon. They are in love, but their unlikely union faces serious challenges since Kaleb’s mother doesn’t approve of them being together. Despite the challenges, they get married, but Kaleb walks out of their marriage without any explanation. Heartbroken, Faith moves to another city where she immerses herself in her work. Her colleagues love her, and when the time comes for her to deliver the baby, they show tremendous support. When the pictures of their son get posted on social media, Kaleb reaches out, but can Faith forgive him for all the pain he has caused her? How was Kaleb’s mother involved in everything that unfolded? Silent Echoes by Crystal Mary Lindsey is wonderfully written and covers many issues that affect families and relationships. The characters were well-developed and relatable, which made the book very effective in passing on the intended message. The narration was excellent, and I loved the warm tone that many readers will find very welcoming. Another thing that becomes apparent in this thought-provoking work is the impacts of mental health issues and the importance of addressing them. The reader will also appreciate other issues covered, such as the importance of having a supportive social structure. Crystal also ensured all emotions and events were vividly captured, which helped me to create a mental picture of what was happening. I look forward to reading something else by this amazing author

In the compassion of Nashville, Tennessee, two caring doctors, Dr. Faith Lancaster, and Dr. Kaleb Marshall, find themselves swept up in a whirlwind romance amid the backdrop of saving lives.

Their connection is instantaneous, their passion intense, with their future destined.
Yet, after just two fleeting months of marriage bliss, Kaleb inexplicably vanishes from Faith’s life, leaving her heartbroken and bewildered.

Unbeknownst to Kaleb, Faith carries within her a secret. A precious life conceived during their time together.

Struggling to come to terms with Kaleb’s sudden departure and facing the daunting prospect of single motherhood, Faith makes the courageous decision to start anew, leaving behind the memories of Nashville for the historical solace of Alabama.

In the thronging city of Birmingham, Faith immerses herself in her work, finding solace and purpose in caring and healing others.

As time passes, she gives birth to a beautiful baby, her love for her child providing her with strength and resilience.

However, her heart remains haunted by the memory of Kaleb, and the unanswered questions lingering like shadows in her mind.

Meanwhile, Kaleb, unaware of the life-changing event he unwittingly set in motion, grapples with his own demons, haunted by the memory of the woman he abandoned.

His once-unshakeable conviction wavers under the influence of his overbearing mother, who plants seeds of doubt about Faith’s character and intentions.

Will Kaleb find Faith and unite as a family?

People must make many choices, and only God knows the answer to their hearts.

But love is patient and love is kind. Love does not rejoice in evil but rejoices in the truth. SO, the truth MUST prevail.
