Ajax Steele has fought against evil for centuries, a brutal life that commanded the ultimate sacrifice. When a dangerous enemy resurfaces, Ajax must sever ties with his team and go deep to stop him. His only chance? Team up with the alluringly sexy woman destined to kill him the moment they fall in love.
Cursed with a rare magic, Madison Locke has spent her life on the run from assassins, living in the shadows to conceal a terrible secret.

To succeed, she must recruit the help of a dangerously tempting warrior who awakens a burning hunger inside her that threatens them both.
A silken caress. A steaming kiss. Can the two fated enemies survive their deadly mate bond and save those they love?

This novel was a repeat almost word for word of the first one I read.I have a photographic memory which means this is an extremely disappointing feeling to experience for me in any series I read. I still enjoyed the series and look forward to many more. Thank you muchly, Debra

Stephanie never fails to deliver. I am yet to read a book of hers that didn’t keep me captive.
Madison and Ajax’ s story is very gripping and it certainly keeps you turning the pages. A dark illusionist and some badass immortal warriors, what’s not to like. Finding their mate (sheva) can destroy these warriors but I love the sheva connection it is so intense and hot. Their story shows how love can win over darkness and evil. Not my normal genre but I enjoyed it so much I have downloaded the other books in the series.
Couldn’t Put It Down!
I have yet to read a book by Stephanie Rowe that I didn’t thoroughly enjoy and Darkness Awakened: Reimagined is no exception. First off I must say I learned that this book was a retelling of the of the original story but I have never read the original. This book is also number twelve in the Order of the Blade Series yet I had no problem reading it as a stand-alone story.
The concept of the tale is intriguing with all the different fantastic characters, each one unique and captivating. The warriors, the Illusionists, the Dancer, some we learn about more than others. The Order of the Blade Warriors with their strict rules that members are bound by oath to follow. The illusionists, forced into hiding, living in fear from those that hunt them and themselves. The Dancer with her mysterious power we only catch glimpses of. Even the bad guys are fascinating with their mysterious ways and terrifying powers.
Madison and Ajax are drawn together in a fight for their future, neither quite trusting the other but both fiercely attracted. The conflict, the characters, the emotions...Wow! I was drawn in completely and can’t wait to see where she takes these characters next! Couldn’t put it down!
