Ratings and reviews

Awakened by Brenda K. Davies Genres: Adult(ish), Paranormal, Romance 3.5 Stars Negatives & Positives I liked it for the most part. I only found a couple of minor editing errors. My biggest problem was the characters maturity levels seem a bit younger than their age to me. The main female and her friends should be about 21. Possibly even 22. They all have 3 years of college behind them. A lot of their actions makes me think of them like they are fresh out of high school. The romance is mostly sweet and the sex between Liam & Sere is steamy. It is also filled with a lot of emotion. There is a bit of suspense, angst, drama, violence and an HEA. Although this wasn't quite up to my speed, mature adults between the ages 17 to late 20's would most likely love it. This is my 2nd read of this story and I already have the other 2 books downloaded in a bundle. I will eventually read book 2. Hopefully that one will be more my speed.

If you like Vampire and Human romance stories, you will like this book. I will say that the story does seem rushed and not "in depth" at times, and the Vampires powers are minimal, however, it really is a great read and worth getting, especially for those of us who love a Vampire's passion for their mate.

One-dimensional characters in a cliché-filled plot. It's not for the grammar-sensitive, as the author appears not to know the difference between basic homonyms. Most disturbing are all the characters who don't know the difference between lust-driven possessiveness and genuine love.
