Awakening Coming Soon

September 11, 2012 By JPMcLean 1 Comment

Awakening book coverIt’s one step closer. FriesenPress has listed Awakening as “Coming Soon” on its website.

Seeing it up there further reinforces that I’m really doing this!

I’m excited, but at the same time, I’ve never felt so vulnerable.


Every Gift Has Its Price

For Emelynn Taylor, the laws of gravity are more like suggestions. And gravity doesn’t play nice. It abandons her without warning and sends her airborne, terrified and unchecked. Vowing to tame the phenomenon, she returns to the seaside home where it began. Here, she discovers a dangerous underworld. One that knows her secret and has been awaiting her return.

Update:

Awakening is now titled Secret Sky. You can learn more about the series rebranding here.

The series is now published by WindStorm Press.

What readers are saying:

A thoroughly enjoyable read

J.P. McLean captures your attention from the get-go, and you’re hooked before you flip the first page. Before too long, she skillfully manages to have you question what you once thought impossible. A thoroughly enjoyable read that had me looking forward to her second book, long before I was through with the first.

—Island Gals Magazine

Fun…sensual, full of adventure

This book is a lot of fun…sensual, full of adventure, rooted in the underlying story of a young women coming to terms with her life and yet managing to incorporate the burden of her gift.  I am hooked and am deeply in to part 2 Revelation.

—Bill Engleson, author of Like a Child to Home

Everything you’re looking for

I don’t give 5 stars easily, but I gave them to J. P. McLean’s Awakening with no hesitation. It has everything you’re looking for in a contemporary fantasy: masterfully crafted characters, exciting plot, believable magic. What a treat!

—J.F. Kaufmann, author of The Langaer Chronicles

    […] FriesenPress worked their formatting magic, and a few weeks later, the book moved to the “coming soon” shelf. It wasn’t quite a Ta Da! moment, more like a “yippee” but it was right […]
