From New York Times and USA Today bestselling author Katie Reus, the first story in her Darkness series: Darkness Awakened.
Years ago he ended things between them to protect her… beings strong enough to fight the Akkadian demons, whose mysterious escape from hell threatens the entire world. With the battle turning bloodier by the second, Finn is ready for anything… until his vampire long lost love shows up on his doorstep in desperate need of his help, sending his heart into a tailspin. He agrees to help her, unaware that she carries a shocking secret that will turn his life upside down.
This time, he’s not letting her go…
Vampire Lyra Marius curses the day she met Finn. The ruthless werewolf promised to love her forever, but he rejected her instead — before she could share her life altering news. Pregnant, kicked out of her coven, and cast aside by the love of her life, Lyra struggled to raise their rare shifter-vampire daughter Vega alone among humans. When the 16-year-old is kidnapped and used to fulfill a frightening prophecy, Lyra swallows her pride and turns to Finn for help. But how long can she fight her feelings for him and keep him from guessing the truth about who Vega really is? As they race against the clock to save their daughter, they must defeat the lethal threat imposed by demons infiltrating the human world and a hell gate that could not only reveal their existence to mankind, but destroy the world in the process.

I’m whittling away at my TBR pile and without checking out the blurb I just jumped into reading Darkness Awakened by Katie Reus. I’ve read a few other books by Ms. Reus and enjoyed them so, why not?
My overall feel of this book was okay. Just okay. I liked the characters, and the premise of second chance romance in a paranormal (I am meh when it …
Great read
Finn is the Alpha of his pack. He’s a wolf shifter and he is one of the strongest Alpha’s around. Lyra is a born vampire that is not only rare, but also from a royal blood line. Finn and Lyra had a short fling 17 years prior and are reunited again when Lyra’s daughter is kidnapped.
I’m not the biggest fan of second chance but the reason Finn …
My Thoughts – 5 out of 5 Unicorns – I loved it!!!
***I choose what I read and review based on what intrigues me!! I bought this book back in 2013, but no one tells me what to think, feel, or write about any book! I own this whole series and many other books by Katie Reus!
The cover is very subdued, and you would know it is paranormal except …
This is the start of a fabulous series.
Seventeen years ago Finn, a werewolf shifter, left the love of his life, Lyra, a vampire, in order to protect her. He has never forgotten her and has searched for her throughout the years. He is now a powerful alpha and in control of a large area with a pack that respects him. He can’t believe Lyra has shown up in his life again after all these …
I love this book and this series.
really enjoyed the story i couldn’t put it down
One of my favorite series!
Good start to a series. Difficult at times to believe the two main characters actually had a previous history so strong that they stayed apart..over a misunderstanding … selflessness. Mmmm. honestly even the relationship with the daughter was a bit stilted… she lives in the human world all this time and no one was curious about her being …
Danger, attraction, and a race against time. You’ll be hooked from the first page as a multitude of paranormal beings have to save the girl and try to close the gates of hell. Will they be sucked in or can they really find a happily ever after?
Not a bad story line. Could use a warning label of MA .
This is a new series for me, but I am hooked.
I enjoyed the characters and storyline. Looking forward to reading more from this author.
This book is very good, truly page turning reading experience.
A great series to read
One of the best shifter/camp stories yet. I’ll be following Katie Reus and reading the rest of her Darkness series.
Darkness Awakened was a very good book. I like the way she build on each character but wove it in the smooth way she did. I definitely recommend this book.
Full of mystery
I am so glad I found this author. The wonderful book ,love the characters. I’m looking forward to this new storyline. thank you for giving me a couple hours of really enjoyable reading.
