My
Review:
Strange things are
happening to Nadia who lives in New York, 2015. She is starting to have
blackouts and not remembering what she did or how she ended up in the places
where she wakes up. Nadia starts having some strange cravings ones that she
wants no part of but eventually has no choice when her body takes over and she
has one of her blackouts. Nadia tries to hide a lot of what is going from her
friends but she does try to get her mother to explain to her what is happening
to her but her mom is reluctant to tell her anything. Nadia starts to have
vision/nightmares that are very frightening and ones that she doesn’t
understand.
In 1480 Wallachia Antanasia
is a Vampyre Witch that was born into war and has to fight her own kind; her
own blood. Antanasia has a vision that she hopes to keep from coming true.
Antanasia loves her mother and her boyfriend both very much and will do
whatever it takes to keep them both alive. Will she succeed or will she end up
losing one of them? Can she save them both? Will one of them die? What will
happen to Antanasia and her people? Will they survive the war? Or will
Antanasia die trying to keep her vision from coming true?
While I saw the
ending coming I didn’t picture it quite the way it unfolded. Awakening:
Bloodline is filled with lots of intriguing and suspenseful adventure. A story
of two young women who take you on more than one journey and leave you wanting
more. I highly recommend Awakening:
Bloodline to anyone who loves a good vampire novel.
