Goodreads synopsis:
When sixteen-year old Jacey Adison’s parents tell her they must move again, she has never questioned their life style. Until now. When Jacey was two, her parents fled the protection of their birthplace, the mystical dimension of Nemele. Leaving was the only solution her parents believed might allow them to keep their family together and alive.
The Adisons have been running from a sect of iniquitous beings from Nemele who covet Jacey. Her parents have repressed their adversaries’ relentless tracking efforts by not utilizing their own mystical powers. They have chosen to conceal themselves within the only realm they knew they'd be able to survive. They are living under their self-imposed powerless sanctions on Earth, which constitutes the nineteenth nation of Nemele.
Her parents have never revealed their true identities to Jacey, consequently keeping her true lineage and unique birthright from her. Jacey’s family has pretended to be non-magical humans as a ploy to prevent an ancient omnipotent entity from killing more innocent beings in its relentless quest to possess Jacey.
Born as an anomaly, Jacey possesses rare abilities that both virtuous and corrupt entities seek to use as their own. Should either side prevail, Jacey may be the saviour or downfall of every world within Nemele’s domains. Blindly thrust into life and death situations, Jacey learns of her true powers within her dreaming and conscious states.
Review:
Awakenings is weird,wonderful and totally worth reading!An amazing first book in a new and mysterious series by promising debut author Hally Willmott.
The heroine of this book is Jacey,a sixteen-year-old girl with odd dreams full of colors,auras and an entity with crystal blue eyes that she can't seem to get out of her head.She always knew that she wasn't a normal teenager but nobody told her anything.So when one day her parents die in a mysterious car accident,Jacey and her brother Hudson are left behind and get to live with their aunt in Nevaeh, their mother's hometown.Along with them,comes Jacey's best friend and Hudson's more-than-a-friend-girl,Jen.
All seems good so far,but that changes when an unexpected attack by a being that is not human both frightens and confuses Jacey,because during the attack she unleashes her true powers and that makes her two things:a) a member of the Nemelites,a secret society that has existed for thousands of millennia and b) a target for the Yietimpi, Nemelites' eternal nemesis.
And that's not all.Jacey is the only one who can see her parents' spirits and allow others to see them as well. Apart from all this,she's still a teenager who must attend high school.So new town,new school.
On their first day Jacey,Hudson and Jen are supposed to meet Vincent,a boy who will show them around.Imagine Jacey's surprise when she sees him and realizes that Vincent is the boy she sees in her dreams.And it gets more complicated because their school is in Nemele,their real home, which is in another dimension.
The clock is ticking and there's not much time left because the Yietimpi are lurking in the shadows waiting for the right time to attack and capture Jacey.
Overall, Awakenings is a fresh and full of mystery and action book that will captivate you from the first pages!
