Awakened by Ednah Walters

Awakened (Book One of the Guardian Legacy)

Most teens turn sixteen and get the license to drive, but Lil Falcon gets the license to kill demons. Orphaned as a child and raised by an eccentric grandfather, Lil is concerned with surviving high school and is unaware that she's a Guardian-a being with super powers charged with killing demons and protecting humanity. When she meets Bran, a mysterious boy with amazing abilities, his psi energy unlocks her latent powers. But Bran has a secret that can ruin their growing relationship, and the truth she discovers may destroy everything she believes in unless she finds the right balance between love and sacrifice.

 My Blurb:

Lil is a normal 16 year old girl. Well, as normal as a Gypsy girl can be. That is until the voices start in her head and one in particular won't leave her be. 

His name is Bran, a mysterious boy who looks like an angel but is really a demon. Half a demon that is and Lil has fallen for him.

Lil's life is turned upside when she learns her true nature is not that of a Gypsy but her Grandfathers lineage of Guardians. Guardians who protect the souls of humans while battling the Demons who try to steal them. And she must use her new found powers to save the ones she loves. 

Is love strong enough to battle the powers of evil? Lil will find out..

 Lets Talk About It: 

I LOVED THIS BOOK! Loved, loved, loved it.

I couldn't finish this book fast enough and even then didn't really want it to end.

The relationships between all of the characters, Lil, her Grandfather, Bran and even the other Trainees were so real it felt like I could know these people.

This is a YA book, sort of like Twilight, except its Guardians vs Demons. Lil is in the center of it all. She has no clue about any of this until her powers come into play on her 16th birthday. The whole time she thought she was part of a Gypsy family, traveling with her grandfather.

She uncovers so much about her family's history and even the truth about her parents. She has to face not only life in a new town, new highschool, but new powers, powers that she had no idea even existed.

Such a great book from start to finish.

I can't wait for the next book in this series, Betrayed, to come out!
