‘Awaken’ is the first book in the ‘Between Two Realms’ series and delves into the unique world of Dream Walkers, that Amber Flora has created. Her book transports us to a world of Dream Walking, Wizards, and Vampires, that she has lovingly and meticulously crafted, bringing her story to life through her well written wording and distinctive style.
The story centres on Ashtyn Lane, a bit of a misfit who works in a mundane job in the city- a place she hates. Never knowing her parents, she was raised by her Uncle Ken on his farm. Ashtyn commutes to the city every day because she really isn’t cut out for life in the city, preferring her beloved farm- finding solace in farm life and nature. Ashtyn often finds her mind wandering during the day, spending a lot of time with her head in the clouds. At night her dreams are so vivid, familiar and comforting that she often wishes she didn’t have to leave them.
One day after work she is rushing to meet her best friend Lori in the city, when Ashtyn literally runs into Cody Mass, who is devastatingly attractive, but seems vaguely familiar. She shakes off that idea, as she would remember such a hot guy. Wouldn’t she? Later that evening Ashtyn returns home to find a badly wounded Cody laying in her yard, he manages to warn her that she is in danger, before he passes out. Although she is very wary of this stranger, Ashtyn feels compelled to help him and so, finds herself thrust into a world she could only begin to imagine.
Cody and his best friend Mac were assigned to watch over and protect Ashtyn, by the Dream Walker Council- because she may hold the key to saving the Realms. Ashtyn is believed to be the “Phoenix” that had been prophesied to restore the realm to its former glory and bring peace to their people. Ashtyn is attracted to both the hunky guys, and she has such intense chemistry with them both, she can’t seem to choose between them. It is a journey of discovery for Ashtyn- with many secrets to uncover, finding out about her heritage, finding love and a finding a place where she finally belongs.
Amber Flora took me on a journey that had me laughing out loud in some parts and then reaching for the tissues the next. I found myself really drawn into the story and couldn’t put it down. This book is such a good combination of paranormal, mystery and romance that had me turning every page avidly, wanting more. The story ends on a cliffhanger, so I can’t wait to read the next book/s...
Happy Reading...
Thank you, Amber Flora!
