Publisher's summary

I'm safe.

And so is my family, all because of the sacrifice Stone made to save us.

I don't know what has happened to Stone or Walker, but I believe in my heart that Stone will do everything he can to make sure Walker never comes near us again. I know he's out there, and I cannot allow myself to think otherwise. He will come back to me, to us.

So, until that happens, and knowing that, I need to work to make my family and myself whole again. Life can bring unexpected joys and sorrows, and it's up to me to begin the healing process for us all. I need to be strong, and that's what I plan to do. I'm no longer a victim because Stone showed me that I was so much more. Life is worth living.

My name is Quinn, and as I awaken from my dark past and violent present, I will start to live. The future has never been so bright

Author's note: This is a dark romance. Due to content, this book should be listened only by those over the age of 18.

Happily complete

I have read each of the Journals as they have arrived and I feel in love with Quinn. This trilogy is like nothing I have read before. I have been horrified and gutted, all while being astounded by all Quinn has accomplished. I couldn't wait for the finale of this trilogy, Quinn needed her HEA. DM has accomplished that while still keeping the suspense and action at the forefront, keeping you turning those pages to see how things turn out.

After everything that Quinn has endured in her life over the past 10+ years would have most of us crawling in a whole and never coming out. Not Quinn, she fights back, she does everything she can to support her family and tries desperately to move forward from her past. At each corner that damn past finds it way back, slowing the process to the future. She is finally certain that the past can be the past. But once again things start to go array. Will she ever get her future.

Stone has been doing everything he possibly can since that fated night to help Quinn. Hiding in the background for all those years as a secret bodyguard of sorts. When the threats finally were enough he had to make himself know, it was a not received very well to start. Over these years he as slowly fallen in love with the strong woman. Fighting with everything he has to win he heart and stand beside her in her future.

Can Quinn and Stone forge ahead in their future? Will they finally rid themselves and her family of the past?

DM Thank you for bringing us Quinn and her story. I am certain that this was wasn't an easy one to write. Readers who are wanting to give the Journal's trilogy a try, you must read from the beginning in order to get the full story. Be prepared to go right through them one after the other.

Awakening (The Journals Trilogy Book 3) AUDIO BOOK by D.M. Earl

Awakening is the third book in The Journals Trilogy and Holy Heck. This is a Romance Suspense that will freaking pull you in from the beginning and doesn’t let go till the end. To say this was an intense read/listen is a huge understatement. The narrator did an amazing job of bringing the characters to life and the raw emotion was chilling. There are some things that may ne trigger for some so I would highly recommend not listening to this with anyone under 18. This follows Quinn, Stone and Walker. She been through hell and back and is stronger than she realizes. Stone is helping her to be stronger and is doing everything to make sure Walker will never bother her again. You guys this is a must read/listen grab a copy to find out what happens next. Im looking forward to listening to more books by this author.

Intense!

This is the 3rd book in The Journals Trilogy series. This is a Romantic Suspense and is just under 4 hours listening time. This is a dark romance so only 18+ should listen and there are situations in the story that could also cause triggers. This story follows Quinn, Stone, and Walker. Due to her past, Quinn has been through the wringer and that has made her stronger. She will do whatever it takes to keep her family safe. Stone guided her to become who she is today. All she wanted was to move forward and away from her past. Stone is there to make sure Walker never comes back. This trilogy was an intense one and the narrator did a fantastic job with it!

awesome story

This is my third audible in this series which I loved listening to. I highly suggest listening to this series in order to help your enhancement of this series. The narrator brought the story to life by using different tones of voices and made me want to listen to more. This is a story about dark pasts and a determination to survive. A story of healing and learning to trust again. The characters take suspense to a new level and a conclusion to an awesome story. I won’t say too much about the plot as I think you need to listen to this series as it is that awesome. I am very glad I picked up this audible and I was so excited to listen to it. I highly recommend this audible.

Superb!!!

The first time I read the ending (yes first, this is my 4th time reading this book but first listen) I was completely blown away by the talent D.M. Earl possess. And now add to that the amazing narration Torii Alaniz does and it just brings it to a whole new level.

D.M. Earl wrapped up the story in an expertly crafted way that satisfies readers and crazy fans like myself.
If you're interested in this book and you haven't read the first two I would highly recommend you read those first. But be warned...... grab onto your seat you're in for a wild ride.

Suspenseful Romance

Awakening
The Journals Trilogy
Book 3
AUDIO BOOK
By D.M. Earl
☆☆☆☆☆
This is a full length dark suspenseful romance. Due to the theme and contents of this story. I recommend only those over 18 should be reading this story.

Quinn has escaped her horrible past, with the help of Stone and his men. She is ready to move on, but something still lurks in the shadows. Could it be Walker again? Where is Stone and Walker? Quinn must gather her strength to get her family safe, once again. Where is she safe? Will Quinn ever be safe again? This is not a nice romance.

D.M. Earl has written this powerful intense series. Everything Quinn has is a fight to keep. I hate to see this series end, but all good things must come to an end. I love each and every character in this series. I love the quick page turning rollercoaster ride. The emotions are out there and ready to greet you. I hope you love this series as much as I have. Well Done D.M. Earl! Well Done!

The Amazing third and final book in this trilogy!

Awakening by D.M. Earl
Narrated by Torii Alaniz
Five Stars

Awakening is the third book in The Journals Trilogy by D.M. Earl. This series needs to be read/ listened to in order. This series is rough and addicting. There are definitely some triggers in this book. It was a roller coaster of a ride from the very beginning and it never stopped. This book starts where the first book leaves off. Quinn is an amazingly strong woman who has been through unthinkable things. Stone and his crew have come to help settle the score. This whole series was full of vibrant characters. I listened to this book in one sitting because I just had to know how it ended. It was totally worth it!

This book was narrated by Torii Alaniz. Her voice was mellow and easy to listen to. She really brought the characters to life. I look forward to listening to many more books by her.

Another good listen

I enjoy this author and found myself transfixed as I listened to this book. It was emotional and I felt pulled into the story straight away. The narrator provided a real connection point and you could feel the emotional current through her tone. Enjoyed it.
