Awaken Me Darkly

De: Gena Showalter

Narrado por: Justine Eyre

A hardened alien hunter desperate to save her partner makes a sensual bargain with a dangerously attractive extraterrestrial with the power to save her friend in this first book of the sizzling Alien Huntress series.

Mia Snow’s mission is to rid the world of evil, one alien at a time.

In a time and place not too far away, Mia Snow is an alien huntress for the New Chicago Police Department. Heading up her expert team of Alien Investigation and Removal agents, Mia is unmatched at battling the elusive enemy among us. After seeing her brother dying at the hands of aliens and earning scars of her own, she’s the perfect girl for the job. And she’ll die before she cries.

Now, a series of killings have Mia and her partner Dallas tracking alien suspects—but a sudden blast of violence leaves Dallas fighting for his life. The chance to save Dallas appears in the form of a tall, erotic stranger. An alien. A murder suspect. Kyrin en Arr, of the deadly Arcadian species, holds the power to heal the injured agent but not without a price. For Mia Snow, that price is surrendering to Kyrin’s forbidden seduction…and embracing their electric attraction.

She’s walking a knife’s edge, risking her badge and even her life. The closer she gets to Kyrin, the more Mia learns about her own heart, her human needs—and the shocking secret that will shatter everything she’s ever believed.

Showalter forever!

Huge fan, read the thus series before, have them proudly in my library, and loved hearing it again in audible. I thought the narrative was perfect for Mia. 5 stars across the board as always!

Dawn's Review of Awaken Me Darkly

I loved the creative way that you were brought into this story. The characters were well written and given enough description that you could see them in your minds eye. I loved the interplay with the characters.

Mia's team is more like family to her and they treat each other as such. They are a group of special officers that protect humans from the aliens that have moved to Earth. Dallas, her partner, is mortally wounded while trying to protect Mia. The only one who can help him is Kyrin, an alien.

Kyrin is a hunter in his own right. His sister has been wrongly accused and he is trying to free her while helping Mia find the real killer. He knows who it is and tries to make a deal with Mia. He will help Dallas if she frees his sister.

Mia and Kyrin's relationship is explosive (putting it mildly). It's definitely worth the read or listen. :)

hot, hot, hot. A must read

I loved the story. I totally want a Kernian in my life. I love Gena Showalter

Good story - Irritating Narration

What did you like best about Awaken Me Darkly? What did you like least?

The story was good. Not great, but pretty good. I just could not get past the narration. The narrator's voice is truly annoying, gravely - but not in the husky, sexy way, rather an almost elderly way. Something about the way she ends most sentences is unpleasant. And her performance of a male voice is almost unbearable.

AWESOME alien crime mystery and romance

How can you not love a kickass dominate female lead and a hot alien hunk who drives her to distraction. And the crime story isn't half bad either. Can't wait to buy the next one.
