What do you get when you mix a witch who speaks to the dead, an FBI Agent with his own supernatural secrets, and a serial killer who believes his partner in crime is the Angel of Death? You get Awakening Dreams, the first book in the Donovan Family Chronicles Series. These books combine romance, mystery/suspense, family drama, and fantasy genres.

Meet Paige Mackenzie, a twenty-six-year-old modern witch with ancient Celtic bloodlines, who has dreams and visions of the murdered dead that reach her through her dreams. A serial killer has been terrorizing the Virginia, Maryland, and Washington, DC area for two years, and the FBI task force has no idea who he is, but Paige does.

She saw his face through one of his victims' eyes in a vision. Now, all she has to do is convince the FBI she knows what she is talking about, no problem.

Paige finds an ally in FBI Agent Michael Donovan, who not only believes in witches but in their powers as well, for he has his own secrets. He has to convince the task force to listen to Paige.

Fans of "A Discovery of Witches" by Deborah Harkness, "The Raven Cycle" by Maggie Stiefvater, and "In a Dark, Dark Wood" by Ruth Ware should enjoy Awakening Dreams.
