Awakening Tour and Giveaway!


Awakening 
Queen of Spades Book 1 
by EJ Dawson 
Genre: SciFi Action Romance 


Ayla is a villain. With a gift that allows her to see when anyone will die, she’s remorseless in her profession as the perfect assassin. When she wakes up in a cryo-tank three thousand years in the future, and no idea how she came to be there, all that matters is survival.

Rescued by Leith and the crew of the Nuria, Ayla discovers a far evolved world of space ships and galactic colonization. But everything comes with a price, and though Ayla is no princess locked in an icy tower, she still has to pay for the rescue she didn’t know she needed.

Given over to Leith, a darkly handsome man who reads Ayla far easier than she’d like, they must work together if Ayla is to repay her debt. As the pair come to learn how dangerous one another are, so too grows a lustful bond that comes with rules of its own. Fighting to learn why she was frozen, Ayla’s dragged into Leith’s past with a criminal organization seeking to take over this sector of the galaxy. In order to survive, Leith will need Ayla’s help, but Ayla doesn’t know if she’s willing to pay what it will cost her… 


“You asked where we were before,” Leith said, coming up to a T-intersection where, with a quick flick on his holo-arm, a panel was rising in the wall. “Look outside.”
Beyond was a lounge, but it was the floor length windows opposite that slowed her steps.
Two suns glimmered in a night sky. One a fiery orange ball; the other a somber grey. Stars stretched out into infinity. Ayla struggled not to let her legs crumple beneath her as she came closer to the glass, pressing one hand against it. Nothing now separating her from the awful truth of what had happened.
She was in a spacecraft.
Frozen in time.
Eternities had passed, and she’d missed them. Everyone from her past was dead, every place she’d ever been, any government she’d ever worked for. In the face of discovery, a part of it slipped away, failing to matter anymore. Who was she, when her entire life had been taken away? There was nothing she knew except the man standing behind her and the void beyond.
Staring into the abyss, Ayla saw her reflection’s face.
The hopelessness there.
Rising within her was the desire to hunt down whoever had done this to her.
When her expression changed, mouth tight, eyes pinched, she fought to remember every nuance of hatred she saw there.
She wanted revenge.

EJ Dawson was born rather tardily (a fault that was to continue throughout life) in the picture perfect spring of 1983 in Canberra, Australia. Growing up on an abandoned mine next to a huge pine forest, time turned the once lovely weatherboard house and carefully kept grounds into creaky old home with rambling gardens. A wondrous place for a child to explore, accompanied by parents devoted to books and reading aloud. 

From this her thirst for fiction was grown, nurtured, and has never ended. 

Flitting between wanting to be a vet, biologist, meteorologist, archaeologist she settled into a double degree in history and archaeologist before moving into the working world. During school and university she never stopped writing, including taking creative writing courses and starting on her own novels, the first being finished when she was eighteen. 

None of these seemed to be quite right, and so the writing never stopped. 

Losing several novels over the years, in 2014 during a spontaneous moment a book involving airship chases and things that crept in the dark leapt to mind, and the first 50 thousand words written in the course of several weeks over a hot summer. Still reeling from the initial idea, the world she had created came into bloom, one novel idea at a time, until an intricate web had formed. 

The Last Prophecy. 

A steampunk flavoured suspenseful fantasy series has been likened to the Mummy crossed with Star Trek by reviewers. 
EJ Dawson currently resides in rural Victoria with her loving husband, demanding felines, and very relaxed python. Still working full time, when she isn’t writing, she’s playing RPG games, computer games, and, of course, reading.
