Inhaltsangabe

Caleb McEllis has been haunted by the same nightmare for as many years as he can remember; he's swallowed by darkness and unable to escape. It was the perfect metaphor for the small, conservative town where he grew up. Once he graduated from high school, he vowed to never return, hoping to escape the teasing he experienced since childhood.

On his way to work one night, however, his nightmare becomes reality and something in the darkness comes for him, causing him to careen off the freeway and flip his car. During the ensuing chaos, a stranger pulls Caleb from the wreckage 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 the road. He soon learns that the things he thought he knew about himself are based on lies he's 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.

Awakened is a young adult paranormal fiction novel, infused with humor and a little bit of male on male romance. With a twist on the traditional shape-shifter genre, it will leave you wanting more! Awakened is the first in the series.
