**Book provided by author in exchange for an honest review**I'm not sure what I expected when I started reading Open Your Eyes and I went in to the story with an open mind. Jani did a great job of grabbing my attention.The book is the story of Natalie and her journey of self-discovery. The book is unique, I've not read a book like it before and I read a lot of books. The twists and turns kept me engaged and the fact that nothing is as it seems.Natalie meets Nick on a trip to New York with her grown up daughter. There is an instant attraction between the two of them and it kinda has an insta-love thing going on. Their relationship progresses pretty quickly and they do fall in love. Natalie is still married to her estranged husband even though they have been separated for quite some time.I did like Natalie's character but she bugged me at times, there was a little too much inner turmoil for me. Nick I fell in love with and I also fell in love with Gabriel. Although the book is only told in Natalie and Nick's POV you get a real understanding of Gabriel as the story unfolds and although I couldn't justify the things he had done, I could understand the reasoning behind it.I'm not too sure what I think about the epilogue, it was interesting and again unique. Jani has definitely thrown me for a loop with Open Your Eyes, in a good way. It's just so unexpected and thought provoking.
