A review by stumpfed
Awakening by Sydney Holmes

4.0

I was thrilled to get an ARC of this book. I thought the premise of an event planner/lawyer wanna be working with a lawyer was a great foundation for a love story. The erotic nature of the relationship that happens as a result of Nora being stifled by her ex and an adventurous lawyer.

There were parts of the story that were disjointed that I felt would have worked better with maybe plans for a second book (did I just suggest that!? HA!) We spent so much time leading up to Nora and Ryan that when we got there it was sort of left hanging.

Great debut novel by an excellent wordsmith. I enjoyed the book and the writing style. Sydney did a very good job capturing the business end of the book, the crossover and a great group of friends.... there is quite a potential here for a series, I'm telling you!
