Description from the publisher:

Waking up each day is a gift….

On her 21st birthday, someone slipped a potent drug combination into socialite Aurora Brightwell’s champagne putting her in a coma for the next ten years. It’s been a long road back, and it’s time to reclaim the life she lost and find out exactly what happened on that fateful night.

Financier Kincade Enright has his own reason for helping Aurora discover who poisoned her, but for the time being he’s keeping that - and his true identity - to himself. What he can’t keep hidden though, are his growing feelings for the one-time paparazzi darling and party-girl.

When this prince of finance joins forces with the former sleeping beauty, nothing can stop them from finding the answers they seek…or prevent the powerful emotions developing between them as they search for the truth.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 

WOKE is a stand-alone contemporary suspense-romance.  It starts on Aurora’s 21st birthday, but the majority of the book continues when she is 36.



Though the “suspense” is slow and predictable, the romance is beautifully arranged.  Actually, there are two romances and they are both wonderful.  The characters really carry this story, more than the action.  Though the narrative seemed to drag at times, I loved Aurora (A.J.) and Cade enough to want to push through until the inevitable endings.



Note:  While I received this book as a gifted ARC via Booksprout, my opinions are my own and are given freely.
