Darkness Awakened was definitely one of the best books I've read in a while. This story was a breath of fresh air due to an original plot and storyline. Forget typical vampires, werewolves, fairies, shapeshifters, etc; author Stephanie Rowe has created a whole new paranormal world of her own filled with Calydon Warriors and powerful Illusionists. By doing so, she sucks the reader right in from the beginning.Darkness Awakened is a book that has all the elements you want in a Paranormal Romance; heart-stopping, edge-of-your-seat action, suspense, mystery, unpredictable twist and turns, passionate & sensual romance, wonderful and unforgettable characters as well as a unique plot and storyline. Rowe also has a wonderful talent for writing; she is able to set the scene, painting vivid & realistic scenes without getting bogged down into endless descriptive paragraphs. The story moved at a fast pace, taking you on a roller coaster ride of emotions and keeps you on the edge reading to see how Quinn & Grace, along with the Calydon Warriors will overcome all the seemingly impossible obstacles thrown their way; but mostly the reader gets absorbed in the sweet & powerful, yet forbidden love between Quinn and Grace as well as their deadly race to change destiny.Overall, this story was amazingly well-written. It had me turning kindle pages until the wee hours of the morning. I absolutely loved this book & highly recommend it for those looking for a fresh new take on their Paranormal Romance. Therefore, buy it, devour it, and savor it! You won't be disappointed!
