Publisher's Summary

Maggie returns to the place of her birth and her world suddenly turns into a sensual, but dangerous delight. The rainforest holds secrets of her birthright and a mysterious man, as predatory as any of the animals, waiting in the very heart of the jungle for her arrival.

Under the blazing heat of the Borneo sun, a beautiful naturalist's dream comes true - to live among the feral jungle creatures. But an untamed, irresistible beast of another sort forces her to explore her own wild side.

Spot-on: listen to more titles in Christine Feehan's Leopard series.

    "alright"

    this book was ok, it ended rather abruptly and the book was very short, Christine Feehan has some great books, so the mediocrity of this one kind of stunned me.

    "The Awakening"

    I have read all of this author's books, from several of her different series, and I have got to say this was the worst book I have read of hers. I guess, statistically, she was due for a stinker!
    The love scenes got to be tiring and tedious- I actually had to skip over them since I couldn't take them anymore, which made the story end much faster, and made me feel cheated as far as the money spent to buy it.
    Christine, please, go back to developing the storyline and cut out the sex already!

    "My only complaint was that the story wasn't longer"

    A great story. Erotically charged. Since it is a relatively short book the plot isn't as complicated as many Christine Feehan books but it was quite good.

    "Awesome series!"

    I've listened to and/or read all of the leopard series, except this one that introduced it, so HAD to listen. Awesome story, great performance and I would highly recommend it to everyone who likes some fantasy, adventure and eroticism. Well done Christine Feehan and Allison Kruise!

    "More of the same"
    Would you try another book from Christine Feehan and/or Allison Kruise?

    I think so


    What could Christine Feehan have done to make this a more enjoyable book for you?

    it was to much like the Dark Series...which I loved I just thought this one would be ......more!


    What didn’t you like about Allison Kruise’s performance?

    She wasn't bad at all space and tone was fine..


    What character would you cut from The Awakening?

    The characters were interesting... I don't think I would cut any.


    Any additional comments?

    I am willing to give the next book a try... I did like the story, again it's just that I though it would be different.....just something more... I can't put my finger on it..

    "Lame..."

    I had a free $10 credit from Audible, so it's probably my fault that I didn't do much research when picking a random book to download...

    This novella/short story had no depth and was just a lame erotic flop from the first chapter. I thought the idea of shape-shifters had some real potential, but it was wasted on steamy love scenes and sexual tension through out.

    I was disappointed and annoyed. I would never read anything by this author again. I think I would throw up or laugh myself silly... What a joke...

    The narrator, Allison Kruise, has a nice voice and I enjoyed her narration very much. I thought she did a great job and hope she narrates some better books in the future!
