#1 New York Times bestselling author Nora Roberts begins a new trilogy of adventure, romance, and magick in The Awakening.

In the realm of Talamh, a teenage warrior named Keegan emerges from a lake holding a sword―representing both power and the terrifying responsibility to protect the Fey. In another realm known as Philadelphia, a young woman has just discovered she possesses a treasure of her own…

When Breen Kelly was a girl, her father would tell her stories of magical places. Now she’s an anxious twentysomething mired in student debt and working a job she hates. But one day she stumbles upon a shocking discovery: her mother has been hiding an investment account in her name. It has been funded by her long-lost father―and it’s worth nearly four million dollars.

This newfound fortune would be life-changing for anyone. But little does Breen know that when she uses some of the money to journey to Ireland, it will unlock mysteries she couldn’t have imagined. Here, she will begin to understand why she kept seeing that silver-haired, elusive man, why she imagined his voice in her head saying Come home, Breen Siobhan. It’s time you came home. Why she dreamed of dragons. And where her true destiny lies―through a portal in Galway that takes her to a land of faeries and mermaids, to a man named Keegan, and to the courage in her own heart that will guide her through a powerful, dangerous destiny…

I’ve just reread this series again for like the fifth time. Every book is a stand alone great read. How often can anyone say that?!
Just love the books characters, the world building. Enthralling is the word for these books. Loved them and will always keep them as near and dear parts of my reader’s life.
I highly recommend this series to any and all who haven’t read them yet and find I’m envious of the first read experience. I do find on rereading, the details just enthrall all over again. I’m going to get these in the print version too. They are that good.
Thank you Ms Roberts.

5.0 out of 5 stars The Awakening - Review

This is the first book in the Dragon Heart Legacy trilogy. 

Breen has been told, by her mother, for most of her life that she's not good enough,  that she'll never be more than average. She got a degree that she didn't want, due to her mother's insisting, and has a job that she doesn't like. While taking care of her mothers house while said mother is on a spa vacation, Breen's life is turned upside down. She goes to Ireland to search for the father that left her when she was young, and finds something magical.

Keegan became taoiseach (chieftain) of Talamh at a young age. He knows his duty to his home world, and he knows the dark forces that are looking to tear apart his world and the next. But the bridge to the next world is a stubborn woman that refuses to acknowledge what she has inside of her. Yet, he'll train Breen to become the warrior she needs to be.

This is not the usual "boy meets girl and starts to fall in love while battling the dark forces" type of book that Ms. Roberts has done in the past. This book is about Breen finding who and what she is and learning how to deal with that, as she's pulled between the two worlds. She finds a lot of things have been kept from her by her mother and has to come to terms with it, as well.

I enjoyed the story, and it grabbed my interest. I enjoyed how Breen started opening up to become her own self and not the "average" person her mother made her feel. I was thrilled that Breen did confront her mother about the past and made her mother see how she had grown into her own being. And I was alternately sad and mad of how her mother still dismissed Breen.

This book does end on a cliffhanger!!! If you don't like cliffhangers, and don't have the second book, I'd suggest you wait then!! I'm looking forward to the second one to see how things start to shape up again.

I'm a sucker for a strong FMC / heroine fairy story. After receiving multiple recommendations for "The Choice," I decided to jump in, starting from the beginning.
This is a sweet series. I'm used to way more spice, but it was still fun. The world-building was good, and I liked that this book addressed family angst.

I’ve been a fan of Nora Roberts for many years. She is one of my favorite authors, and I have read a great deal of all she has written. This book is definitely one of, if not my favorite. I can’t wait to see what happens next. I’m glad I won’t have to.
