Death becomes me.
I always thought I was just Keira Gully, your average twenty-something trying to make it in the big city and finish college. Normal life, normal dreams, nothing out of the ordinary.
Turns out, I couldn't have been more wrong.
It all starts with the screech of tires, the crunch of metal, and then... darkness. I wake up in a hospital bed, and the doctors call it a miracle. I call it the day my life turned upside down.
Because my family didn't make it out of that crash. I did. And now? Now I'm seeing things that can't be real.
Like the fact my best friend is a witch, or that one of our local hangouts is run by a 7-foot leprechaun, or that freaking werewolves are after me.
And a cute EMS driver keeps showing up and makes my heart do weird things.
But when I reach out to comfort a dying patient and their spirit zips back into their body like a video on rewind, I realize this is way more than post-accident trauma.
Now, I'm not just Keira. I'm a necromancer-the reluctant kind-trying to piece together the mystery of my past and these strange, terrifying... abilities.
Why didn't my family ever mention this tiny detail about our lineage?
And if I can bring back the dead, why did they choose to be cremated?
As I dive deeper into this new world, I'm finding out that every touch, every resurrection, comes with a price. And in this game of life and death, the cost might be more than I'm willing to pay.
But a girl's gotta do what a girl's gotta do, even if it means flirting with death on a daily basis.
At least the view's nice-because that EMS driver? He keeps showing up and let's just say his smile is to die for. (Too soon for death puns?)
Welcome to my life, where death isn't the end-it's just the beginning.
Even for a necromancer, some lines shouldn't be crossed. But let's face it, where's the fun in that?
Awakened is the first book in Darkness Cursed Trilogy. Step into a world where the dead don't always stay buried.
