Product Description:
Adisa Summers doesn't know her boyfriend, Micah Alexander, can fly. Micah's odd emotionless behavior, rigid posture, and vacant eyes are a mystery sending mixed messages to Adisa. When a flash of lightning sends a tree crashing down on her, Adisa is shocked to see Micah actually flying to her rescue! In an instant, Adisa is in his arms, looking up at the sky over his shoulder as they fly parallel to the ground. Micah shifts, shielding her completely with his body. As the tree explodes against Micah's back, Adisa feels him shudder with the impact and the air fills with wood chips and sawdust. Miraculously, they aren't smashed into the ground. They safely continue flying. Micah finally begins to open up to Adisa about his secret life as a superbeing and she discovers another shocking secret. Micah burns for her--literally as well as figuratively. ASLEEP is a superhero teen love story set in modern day Atlanta that's filled with thrills, romance, and suspense.

Asleep by Wendy Raven McNair had me quickly turning the pages in an attempt to find out what would happen next. I found something very interesting while reading about Adisa Summers' journey into finding out more about the mysterious boy, Micah Alexander, who moved into the house across the street. That something is how tired a person can feel when she spends her entire night dreaming. After such an adventure in the subconscious mind, she wakes up exhausted. Adisa spent most of her life having dreamless ... Read More

was a little... apprehensive about starting this book. I love YA fantasy, but I am -or was, I should say- a fan of Heroes, and I saw first hand that romance and superpowers do not mix. It only took me about thirty pages to realize that apparently, Heroes just did it wrong! Wendy Raven McNair has written a rich and compelling story of girl-meets-boy ...who just happens to be a superhero.
The plot unrolls slowly, but steadily. Not once did I ever feel like it was dragging, nor did I do that 'I'm ... Read More

Asleep combines the best of a hot romance, the teen angst of growing up, and the exciting and suspenseful supernatural aspects of novels that I love. Adisa is just living life. She goes by living in the shadow of her two perfect twin sisters, and finding solace in the childhood superheroes she has loved all her life. Then mysterious, fine as heck, and stoic Micah comes and begins to show the smallest, emotionless interest in her, does she begin looking outside the usual limits of her life.

Wendy Raven McNair's Asleep is not only a sweet teen love story with suspense, intrigue, and super heroes... It is an extremely well-written tale with meaningful messages about family, friendship, hope, self-respect and love this mother of an adolescent is thrilled to recommend. Ms. McNair spins a world that is about so much more than the usual teenage angst and drama. Her characters are smart and endearing, and the pace and plot of this novel make it a joy for readers of all ages.
