Review: While You're Awake by Amber Stokes



About the book:
Sweet New Adult Contemporary Romance Novelette

There's no rest for the fearful.

Ava always knew the bees would come. Just when she's settled into a place of her own, freelance editing and savoring her independence, her rental house is invaded by a swarm of honey bees. And with their arrival, her lifelong fear morphs into a full-fledged panic that steals her sleep--and her peace of mind.

Keegan knows all about fear. When he meets Ava at the coffee shop where he works, he can't help but come to her rescue. Together with his German shepherds, Sun and Moon, he sets out to break the "curse" that hovers over Tired Girl. But is it possible to conquer nightmares and live a dream while you're awake?

This sweet novelette is a contemporary re-imagining of the Sleeping Beauty fairy tale that sheds light on the worries that bind us and the love that leads to peace.

My thoughts:

While You're Awake was a super fun and sweet read! The character's extreme fear of bees was humorous at times, but I also couldn't help but feel for her because her fear controlled her life so much and made her lose sleep.

The romance was nice and I liked the ending...For a short book, it ended well. :) I also loved the dogs and how energetic Moon was. ;)

All in all, I loved this short read. It was fun and quick to read.
