Awakening
By: Ashley Suzanne
Synopsis:
Mira’s broken and battered. She’s fighting to put herself back together while her heart is trying to forget. Can she continue moving forward with one man while in love with another?
Skylar’s wrestling demons he never imagined in his wildest dreams. The girl he’s been in love with for years finally has feelings for him. There’s only one problem: her heart might lie somewhere else. How long until his will power shatters?
Who will seize Mira’s heart and never let go? Will these feelings ever go away or will they be an AWAKENING?
EXCERPT
I continue to giggle all the way down the hall and into the elevator. As soon as we hit the
elevator, the proximity of Skylar to my humming body really hits home and I feel a sudden wave of
arousal. I haven’t felt this way since I woke up, not even with Danny. Glancing over at Skylar, I can see
him fidgeting around.
As I’m looking at him, he turns to face me, and I can see the arousal in his eyes. He casually licks
his lips and shoves his hands into the pockets of his jeans. I smile and turn back to face the front of the
elevator. I have him right where I want him.
When the elevator descends to the first floor, I’m smacked in the face with the gravity of my
reality. Danny is waiting for the doors to open, with a huge smile on his face. Glancing back to Skylar, I
see that he’s been smacked just as hard. Skylar’s Adam’s apple bobs in his throat, like he’s trying to
swallow his feelings, and moves past me toward Danny.

Review:
Wow this book was amazing. Once again Ashley Suzanne wrote an amazing story. You need to read Mirage and Inception before you read Awakening. In case you have not read Mirage or Inception yet, I will try to keep this review spoiler free from anything shocking in Mirage and Inception. Awakening is told in Mira, Skylar, and Danny's POV. It was really great to be able to get into all their heads.
In Awakening Mira is trying to put herself back together. She is struggling with what is real and what was a dream. Danny and Skylar also struggle with their feelings for Mira. Mira's best friend Kylee is also having man trouble. We finally are told who Jacoby is and how he fits into the story.
Awakening is an emotional roller coaster. With Awakening, Ashely breaks you into emotional pieces but in the end she puts you back together. The Queen of cliffhangers actually gives a HEA in this story. The epilogue is in Kylee's POV. The epilogue leaves us wanting more and I can't wait for Kylee's story in Facade.
