Waking Up Dead : (A Curvy Girl Enemies-to-Lovers Paranormal Spicy Romance)
About
“She gave him life and he gave her forever. Their bond may be the only thing death can’t sever... aside from the wrath of a Demon.”
Suri is a powerful Necromancer from a long line of powerful Necromancers. Kilian is the Vampire sent to kill her by the Supernatural Courts Council for the skills she rarely uses. In an attempt to kill her, he dies and she brings him back to life, thinking he’d given his for hers. To break the protective bond between them, the two must embark on a journey to find answers and escape those determined to exploit their secrets.
But there’s one secret neither of them knows. One that could kill them both.
Praise for this book
"An unforeseen fusion of hell, heaven, and earth."
When I accepted this book my response was, "Waking up Dead sounds just weird enough to be interesting." After reading it, I would have to agree that my statement was correct.Suri is a Ternion, with powers that make her both rare and highly sought after, so she tries to fly under the radar. She is a kindhearted woman, who has based everything she'd done her entire life on limiting how and when she used her gifts. She did not want to get used for them.
Kilian is sent to kill her, but she thinks he's protecting her from the Gargoyles, so when they kill him, she uses her necromancer abilities and brings him back. It was the least she could do for someone who gave his life for her, but that was before she knew the truth. Once she realized what she'd done she just wanted to leave him and run away.
Imagine being the mistress to the vampire who tried to kill you. She isn't happy and he fights her will at every turn. Only getting reprieve when his demon side is at the forefront. They both want the bond broken, yet the journey they take to get that information is not exactly a straightforward one. They get abducted, have a pretty stellar escape, then find themselves in another predicament. Add in a werewolf destined to be an Alpha and it'll wrap up the weird and interesting storyline that is this book.
It does end on a semi-cliffhanger, and I for one, cannot wait for the story to continue. If you want to read something with a new and interesting twist, then I fully suggest you try this one.
Awesome Paranormal Writing!
The characters are well-developed, the author even makes me want to cheer for the evil ones, and the use of unique paranormal characters is new and exciting! I definitely need a sequel!
