Seraphina’s Awakening is the first book in the Seraphina series by Sheena Hutchinson. I do not like to admit to this, but I read the second and third book in this series. Ms. Hutchinson did such amazing job in creating her characters. Seraphina stays true throughout the series. The story has mystery, fantasy, drama, and romance. Once I started to read the story, I fell in love with the scenery all over again. Seraphina is learning about herself. Seraphina has so much going on that she is trying to understand. Nathaniel is another character that will grab your attention. Overall, the story will grab you and take you away to Seraphina and Nathaniel’s world and you will not want to leave.

Seraphina’s Initiation (The Seraphina Series book 2) by Sheena Hutchinson
Four Stars
Sera is at a point we all wish to be at. We want to realize our greatness and use it to its full potential. We want to discover every unique aspect of ourselves. I felt a connection with Sera because she didn’t know her worth but has come to know and love herself. Nate has given up so much for Sera and has asked nothing of her. I love that he has kept his faith even though he has fallen. I think we are all meant for greatness but in different ways. The author has done a great job pulling these characters together. The story is unique and well written.

Seraphina’s Awakening is the opening to Sheena Hutchinson’s Seraphina series. Don’t ask me why I started the series with book three, I must have been dreaming or something so do not make the same mistake and do start with the first one! It did send me back to the beginning though! What else you do when you encounter a fantasy/paranormal romance that is filled with mystery and has such a vivid imagery that you can simply close your eyes and BAM, it is there, in front of you! Seraphina’s Awakening is a quick read that keeps you engaged from page one! We meet Seraphina who seems to be a normal girl in her mid-twenties living a boring life outside though inside she feels as if she is lost and something is missing in her life… she has had crazy dreams for years that feel life visions and then … one night things change and enter Nate and she steps into a supernatural world where she needs to find her way battling evil and trying to fulfil her destiny! I promise you will fall for Seraphina and Nate and all the supporting character and you will reach for the next book in the series!
Seraphina’s Initiation by Sheena Hutchinson is the second book in the Seraphina’ series. This series needs to be read in order so that you get a full understanding. This book continues the great story we were introduced to in book one. Sera is fully immersed in the world of Angels and Demons, fighting to protect the ones she loves. The author had done an amazing job at developing this story and these characters. It picks straight back up again and transports you straight back to the world you would have been reluctant to leave behind. This book carries the momentum built up in the first and becomes such a great instalment. I am very much looking forward to the next one!
Seraphina’s Awakening (Seraphina #1) by Sheena Hutchinson was an okay read that was both original and unique.
My first read from this author, and I’m going to be keeping an eye out. This is the first book in the Seraphina series, and so far it’s looking like a good series to get behind. But, I do have some things that took me out of this story and made it hard to get back in.
First things first, this book is adult but reads like a YA. The MC was all over the place, and I never did catch her age. Frankly the mentality matched adult sometimes, but then other times I felt like I was reading about an unbalanced teen. That was the main reason why I kept getting pulled out of the story. The other reason was, I felt like the main plot wasn’t as clear as it should have been, and I kept feeling like I missed something. Plus there’s a love triangle, and if you follow my reviews at all, you know I’m not a big fan.
Other then that, I did enjoy the story. I do feel like for a set up book, it was trying to do too much, and got a little lost along the way. I do like this stories original concept, and after about the 60% mark things started to pick up. The story got a little unpredictable, and that actually worked in this reads favour. I got fully absorbed, and was finally seeing the big picture.
Overall this book, as I said, is a fresh unique read. I think it just needs a little more love and care, so that first half of the book matches the last. But as I said the story itself is enjoyable, and I will be checking out the rest of this series. So please take my recommendation and my stamp of approval that you will get caught up in this tale of good vs evil.
Seraphina’s Initiation, Book Two of the Seraphina Series, by Sheena Hutchinson
5-Stars
Seraphina’s Initiation is book two in this series. It continues the story following book one where she discovers her new abilities. Nate continues to protect and love her in this book. It is amazing how quickly she learns her combat skills. She also comes to terms with her overwhelming emotions. Nate is a wonderful teacher and she excels at all he challenges her with. I loved both their characters in this novel and also that it focused more on them. Jake and Amanda do not play as big of a role in this second book as they did in the first. I can’t wait to read more in this series. Such an excellent novel!

5-stars
Seraphina’s Awakening is the first book I’ve read by this author and it’s certainly made a good impression! I completely devoured this one, once I started, I couldn’t bring myself to put it down as I had so many questions swirling around in my mind. This author wrote with an incredible amount of detail and I loved how well the story flowed. Trying to piece everything together made my reading experience entertaining and memorable!
I was very intrigued by Seraphina’s relationship with Jack and Nate so I can’t wait to dive into the next book to see how everything plays out.
I would recommend this book to anyone looking for their next fantasy read!

How much would you be willing to give up for someone who doesn’t know you? Nate has been given a task. This task is like a demotion to him but the most important task to the world. Sera is awakening into a part of the world she never knew existed. I really enjoyed this story. It gave me a break in between the hot sexy billionaire stories. I liked the unique twist the author put on this story. It made it more interesting. Nate made a choice without knowing how Sera would chose in the end. I’m also excited that you get both characters POV. I love books that come in a series. You get a lot more about it and the time you get learning about the characters. You definitely see more growth and comprehension in books that have series.
Seraphina’s Awakening, The Seraphina Series Book One, by Sheena Hutchinson
5-Stars
Seraphina’s Awakening is the first book of the Seraphina Series. It features Angels Demons, and those who can read and sense spirits and auras. The storyline is easy to follow and moves quickly. I loved following Seraphina as she begins to experience such drastic changes. I also loved Nate’s character and how he is introduced. There were also many excellent supporting characters such as Amanda, Seraphina’s best friend, and Jack, the coffee store owner. They each allowed me to see different parts of Seraphina’s characters and how much she cares for her friends. I sincerely look forward to reading more in this series!

Seraphina’s Awakening (The Seraphina Series Book 1) By Sheena Hutchinson
This book is different than any other I have read and I enjoyed the unexpected twist and turns.

I found that the author did a good job weaving a wonderful story full of detailed fun entertainment that I thoroughly enjoyed. I recommend this book and I can’t wait to find out what’s in store for us in the next one.

Seraphina’s Awakening by Sheena Hutchinson is the first book in The Seraphinas series. This is the kind of book that will keep you guessing all the way through. As much as I might want to rave about this book I also wouldn’t want to say too much for fear of spoiling it. I didn’t really know anything about this book, or this author, when I started reading and I am really glad that was the case. I went in totally blind, with no preconceptions and was swept away by the storytelling. I loved Sera and how fierce her character felt to me. It was so easy to connect with her as a character, it honestly felt like I was feeling everything she did. This author has done an amazing job at creating a piece of work that will stay with you long after you finish reading. Highly recommended!
For as long as she can remember, Seraphina Cross has experienced these visions that made her feel like there was more to life. It wasn’t until one moment, one accident that her life changed forever.
She awakens the next day a new person in more ways than one. With no recollection of past night’s events, she’s forced to adapt to certain sensations she is experiencing all while trying to piece together what exactly happened to her that fateful night. Her strange, hectic life doesn’t seem to make sense until she meets a handsome stranger. Only then does the puzzle finally piece itself together.
What she doesn’t expect is the new powers she has developed attracting all kinds of unwanted attention. Thrown into a world she never truly believed existed she is forced to come to grips with who she is becoming while staying out of trouble long enough to figure out what needs to be done to fulfill her destiny.
Sheena is a born and raised New Yorker, who followed her happily ever after to a much more rural town in Maine. When she’s not driving an hour to find a Starbucks or running from bugs that are way to big for her taste, she’s focusing on writing stories that empower and inspire.

Nate knows the moment Seraphina has made her decision, a decision she has made to keep those she loves safe. Seraphina has made her decision and has packed and said her goodbyes but still finds it extremely hard leaving behind all she has known. She realises she has to lie to those she loves and she doesn’t know when she will get to see them again. Now she is moving in with her boyfriend, her fallen angel, Nate. Now it is Nate’s turn to teach, train and mentor Seraphina with all that he knows to help her with her new found powers. Jack misses seeing Seraphina and constantly contacts her. He can’t deal with not being in Sera’s life and after seeing Seraphina and Nate together finally decides to take drastic measures. Jack does something he has sworn he would never do, something that he may not be able to come back from. Will this bring Jack and Sera closer together or will this finally be the end of their friendship? As Nate and Sera try to come to terms with what she is exactly, what she has become and what she can do, they have to deal with the strange occurrences, disappearances, dreams and demons. But can Nate keep her safe when he doesn’t have the powers he once had? Will the battle for good or evil prevail? Will Sera do the one thing she wants more than life and that is to keep Nate safe?
This book is the second book in this series the first being Awakening which I really enjoyed. Seraphina’s Initiation certainly does not disappoint. I love the characters and Sheena makes a perfect blend of humor and seriousness and Seraphina and Nate are the perfect blend of strength and vulnerability. This is one story you won’t want to miss.
Nathaniel has been summoned before God for what he thinks is a promotion. Once in his presence he is given an assignment on Earth. Nathaniel is not happy but does as he is told, thinking if he does a good job he will be looked upon favorably in God’s eyes and be able to return to Heaven.
Nathaniel takes up his role as guardian to watch over Seraphina (Sera). Nathaniel doesn’t know why he’s been sent to watch over her but begins to suspect there is more to her than meets the eye. When he starts to feel things for her he takes time out to think about things. Unfortunately when he is not watching over her an accident happens and he does the only thing he can think of, to save her life. God calls Nathaniel back to be punished for what he has done. Nathaniel is now a fallen angel, Nate, who can’t wait to get back to Sera and finally meet her.
Sera has been having strange dreams and always dreams about he man with the blue eyes. The dreams, having happened ever since she was 18 years old, makes her feel she is living two lives and is always exhausted from them. When strange things start happening to Sera, she thinks she is going crazy but she also believes she is meant for more. Sera grudgingly goes with her best friend, Amanda, to see a psychic. Whilst waiting for Amanda she is approached by Anna, another psychic who tells her that she needs trust in herself to face what is to come.
This story is well written and if you are into good and evil, Angels and Demons and romance then this book is for you.
