Blurb: Caleb McEllis has been haunted by the same nightmare for as many of his seventeen years as he can remember; he is swallowed by darkness and unable to escape. On his way to work one night, something in the darkness comes for him, causing him to careen off the freeway and flip his car. During the ensuing chaos, a dark stranger pulls Caleb from his car moments before lighting it on fire. As the night continues, Caleb discovers that this stranger knows more about him than he should, perhaps even more than Caleb knows about himself.

Caleb is forced to trust the stranger or run the risk of being killed by whatever attacked him on his way to work. He soon learns that the things he thought he knew about himself are based on lies he has been told since childhood and as they unravel he is forced to confront the truth about what he really is. In order to survive, Caleb must let go of his past and embrace his true nature; he must become one of the Awakened. Along his way, he meets Gabriel, and once again, his world changes as new possibilities open up before them.

Awakened is a young adult paranormal fiction novel that is infused with humor and a hint of romance. It is a twist on the traditional shifter genre, and will leave you wanting more.

**any content warnings: meant for ages 15+, some violence and reference to physical intimacy (though none occurs in the story).

Ideally, I'd like reviews on B&N and iBooks store. Amazon, Goodreads, or other review posts would also be appreciated.

Please PM me if interested with the format you'd like.

Thanks!
Kenneth

Kaje Harper | 17374 comments I hope you get some takers -this sounds fascinating, but because i write shifters I try not to read other people's versions, to be sure my ideas are fresh. Good luck with it.
