Echoes of the Wildwood #2
Whispers of the Forsaken Wilds
THEY WILL NOT BREAK HER.
THE STORM IS ONLY BEGINNING.
Betrayal cut deeper than any blade, and Shannon’s fight has only just begun. Bound in chains and betrayed by the man who coveted her, she faces a journey into the heart of shadow. With a friend's life hanging by a thread and her captor’s smirk a constant reminder of her wounds, she clings to the only thing left unbroken- her will.
In a land devoured by war and rot, her power may be the last spark of hope.
Shannon must choose whether her heart is her greatest weakness or her fiercest weapon.
The wilds have whispered her name. Now the world will know her wrath.
Storms are not meant to be tamed.
Banríon déanta as stoirmeacha, ní féidir í a shrianadh.
Step into a world where the forest breathes, magic hums beneath your skin, and every whispered promise hides a dagger. Lose yourself in a sweeping tale of passion, treachery, and destiny—where the wilderness whispers secrets, and fate is written in blood and briars.
This book contains depictions of violence, emotional abuse, and themes of mental health struggles. Reader discretion is advised. More information can be found via

About the author
Rhana McKenna
3 books4 followersHello! I'm Rhana.
I love books; I love escapism!
I spend most of my time lost in worlds of romance and fantasy- reading them, writing them, or daydreaming about them when I should probably be doing something productive. I live in the middle of nowhere in England with my husband and our three-legged dog.
I'm hugely creative and easily distracted by new hobbies or obsessions. I love creating art as well as writing, and I'm usually either hyper-focused on something or out and about in the countryside on adventures. I also somehow manage to fit in a pretty serious video game habit...
I hope you enjoy my books! Please feel free to reach out via email or via my website so we can be friends <3

Rhana absolutely smashes it out of the park with this second instalment in the series!!
The stakes are higher and the tension is tight. We get so much development in this one. The world expands, the relationships grow, and the villains get even more vile.
There are some dark moments in this one, but Rhana expertly balances them with moments of hope and lightness (and plenty of badass scenes from Shannon).
I NEED to know what happens next. Immediately.
Also, I would die for sweet baby Cian. And also Torin.

Inhaled in less than 24 hours!! Rhana Mckenna does it again using unbelievably powerful imagery to fully immerse you in this fantasy world. Another book of falling deeper in love with these wonderfully strong and bad ass characters. An emotional rollercoaster that I just didn’t want to get off and I cannot WAIT until the final installment 😍 (Sweet baby Cian #1 fan)
