This book was not at all what I was expecting it to be! I really enjoyed it!!!
Sierra is real estate agent, making a pretty good living, bur she is having very real and vivid dreams, where she is herself, by goes by a different name. These dreams that leave her scared and confused. And have her falling into a deep sleep, sometimes for days. These dreams eventually lead her to seek help from a therapist, where Dr. Cayden then helps Sierra make a breakthrough from the dreams and over something that happened to her during her childhood. Through these dreams, the therapy, and help from a love interest named Steve, she finds her way back to God and finds her faith again. She even finds the strained relationship in her family, restored. A very good read!
Awaken is a very unique story - yes you read that right - unique - the story starts off with a thought provoking - heart pounding event. The good thing about it is that this is just the beginning for Sierra. What starts out looking like a curse turns out to be a Blessing in disguise. The author really knows how to weave a good yarn. this story was very well woven together. The book is like a butterfly - it starts out like it is in a cocoon and it gradually becomes a beautiful butterfly - but boy what she has to go through to become one. I love how this author writes - I can't wait to read her next book.
My review is 4 stars.
First, this is a sub-genre I think I have read very least of it. Not because I don't like this genre but I don't get to read more book on this genre and also I don't know many authors from this genre. When I was reading this book. I had an early intuition that this is going to be either very bad or something awesome. And I'm very glad to say that it is the latter one. I enjoyed this book thoroughly and the way this book turns out in some mid-sections and the climax, I loved it.
When this book starts the character of Sierra is something very unusual, and I really had a feeling that the book is going to turn in some horror story but it wasn't. There were moments that I liked so much. Sorry, I can't talk about them as they will be a spoiler. The character of Sierra is written beautifully, the description by Author is good and very connecting. Sierra captured my attention from the starting of the book and it never let me go. I liked that a lot. I'm happy that there are not a lot of characters and that a very good thing. I always had a comparison going on in my head about Sierra & Dorothy and I must say that really captivated my mind in an amazing way.
The plot of the book is very unique for me, I haven't read anything like this one before. The story is quite strong with respect to the plot and I loved it. This book is first for me from the author and I must say this is a really nice book author had written. There is definitely something that will engage the readers that no other book had done. The scenes written in the book are created in a way that is really amazing and the dialogues, well I would say like this that scenes and dialogues are complimenting each other. And I guess, that a perfect thing to happen in a book. It'll feel like you are watching a movie!
*** I would really like to recommend this book to all the romance readers ***
