Awaken

Awaken is a charming historical romance with a little time travel thrown in. Abandoned as a baby, Florence has always wondered about her past. When she takes a job as a personal secretary to Alexander Sterling, things seem fairly odd at first. Mr Sterling is often hidden away due to illness, and his housekeeper is fiercely protective of him, not allowing Florence to get close. They do manage to have a few strange encounters and soon develop feelings for each other, but there is something more that neither of them can yet explain.

When Florence encounters someone from her past and is able to travel back in time she find answers to many of the questions plaguing her today, where she came from, who are her family and why is she so drawn to Mr Sterling? It's a lovely story told between the two timelines, with a host of wonderful characters alongside Florence and Alex.

I look forward to reading more from Marcia Armandi.
