I got this book from the author, free of cost, in exchange of an honest review from my side.Firstly I would like to thank Samantha Long, author of Awakening for giving me this opportunity of reading and reviewing this awesome book.I got this book from Lovers of Paranormal Group of Goodreads under the read to Review Scheme.I really loved the concept of this book and the plot is just awesome. We get to explore the life of our protagonist Sophie who has some awesome powers, well knowing about others feelings and their emotional state can become a little complicated at times but surely it’s one of the best powers that you can have, right? Sophie has an awesome best friend Lilli who also have some awesome powers and together to move to Boston to get away from the people who used to bully her. There they find out that four more college students have some special powers like them and not only that but they also have to stop an evil from taking over Earth in its evil clutches. Now Sophie and her friends must stop the evil at any cost.I really enjoyed this engaging read and the writing style of the author is fabulous, it’s smooth and flawless and I really felt comfortable with it. The detailed descriptions of not only the surroundings but also the emotional status of the people which Sophie could sense made this read an intriguing one for me. The action scenes are great and I loved the romance between Sophie and Tristan though it felt a little cold but the romantic scenes were nicely executed.There is mystery which made me go crazy in anticipation and the twists that the author put up really surprised me a lot. A great and must read for Paranormal lovers and I bet that you guys will surely love this. It’s not cliché and the story doesn’t only revolve around the main leads and their romance but also captures each and every detail of the other characters and the surroundings in which they are present. The author gave a crisp yet stunning description of the demons which I would like to appreciate and the ending was awesome-sauce and it won my heart really. I would definitely go for book 2 and continue my journey with Sophie and her friends’ story.
