What People Are Saying About Her Debut Novel
This is the author’s debut novel, but it reads like she’s a seasoned author. I experienced all of the emotions with Rox – fear, anger, pain, and confusion.

Awakening is a wonderfully wild, action-packed story for those who like X-Men and/or military-type thrillers. With a cast of ethnically diverse characters, Awakening is a fast, fun, modern story for those who like breathless action and suspense!
