This is an amazing book. Mia Snow, an Alien Investigation and Removal Agent, is a legalized killer of aliens. At her most recent murder scene, she narrows the suspect field to the Arcadians, a dangerous race gifted with strong mental powers. Almost immediately, Mia is up to her neck in Arcadian intrigue, power plays and mind games. In a bid to save her partner, she reluctantly pairs up with a handsome Arcadian who's seemingly been set up. While concerned about her partner, having unusual visions that appear to be giving her false information and working with her former victims, Mia is overwhelmed by multiple situations.

A brilliantly written, fast-paced novel, AWAKEN ME DARKLY sizzles with intrigue and interest. Similar to Laurell K. Hamilton's Anita Blake series, this book takes various steps to transcend the genres of the supernatural, mystery and science fiction.

Book Summary

Mia Snow is part of an elite task force within the New Chicago PD, and every night she stalks and kills otherworldly predators. Alien advocates often ask her if she, a hunter, a legalized killer, lives with guilt. Her answer: Hell no. She’s seen the carnage aliens leave in their wake. Years ago, they killed her older brother and she has hated them ever since. They deserve the sting of her pyre-gun, and if necessary, she will fight to her death to see them eliminated. She is an Alien Huntress.

Now, there is an alien serial killer preying upon humans. Mia must use her psychic abilities and deadly fighting skills to find him. Funny thing, though. Her prime suspect, an alien, is also the only man she’s ever loved.
