A charmed life can tumble down in an avalanche of problems.

Bobby Tremain’s the first in his family to attend college, and also the first to see snow. A massive magical blizzard makes this not-so-average bear want to sleep all winter, but he needs to pass exams or risk flunking out of Providence Paranormal College.

Lynn Frampton’s got a brain of epic proportions and an even smarter mouth. She went to college on the other side of the country to escape the town where everybody knows and fears her intellect. At college, Lynn's barely able to make friends, let alone influence people. At least she’s at the top of her class.

Bobby needs Lynn’s help to stay awake and pass his exams. She might just need his companionship, too. Can Lynn and Bobby find new hope together, or will their failures send them both packing?

“I spent more than a couple of late nights reading through these stories to find out what was going to happen to my new friends!” – Michael Anderle, Best-Selling Author of The Kurtherian Gambit

This series is for fans of Harry Potter, Jaymin Eve, and all academy books.

Excellent writing and good editing. The characters are interesting. There are just hints of the plot in this book. I expect great things to come.

Bearly Awake is the first book in the Providence Paranormal College series by D. R. Perry.

This was a cute little romance. Definitely young adult centric, more than anything. I would have appreciated a little more back story. Along those lines, there many moments were the author got a little circular with explanations.

The forgettable roommate is a good example of missed opportunity. It would've been so much more interesting to have her stay at the school while this book took place. Even more an obvious missed oppurtunity: why didn't anyone try to determine who was conjuring snow to sabotage Bobby, thereby almost killing Lynn? I guess this subject might be covered in the the later books of the series? That no one even looked into the disturbing predicament is troubling.

Lynn is the only human at a private league extrahuman focused college. She comes wrapped in sarcasm, snappy comebacks, and emotional walls. All while she looks down on you from her high seat as a valedictorian. It's shocking no one had taken the time to truly get to know her, to see the gem of kindness and enjoyable personality underneath all those hard edges, until her fated mate came along. We know absolutely little about her family, outside of some vaguely mentioned sibling rivalry.

Bobby is an all around kind, caring, and popular bear shifter. That he's stacked in muscles and precious smiles shouldn't shock any reader. While his past does harbor the unfortunate accident his star of a father suffered, saving his mother's life, his like pure distilled sunshine. All cuddly and good feeling vibes.

I would have liked a little more build up for their eventual fall into fated bliss. Kind of just seemed to skip over either of their hang-ups. To sum up the entire experience I would simply say it's beyond cute.

I'll be honest. I have never really been attracted to shifter stories for no reason I can presently think of. This book changed my mind for the better. The main characters were fun to read about, the romance aspect was okay, and the plot was easily followed. The story is a good one and I am looking forward to the next one. Yes, I definitely recommend this book to anyone who enjoys paranormal stories about shifters.

Reviewed in the United States on July 17, 2022
I do enjoy the stories Michael Anderle publish, but but paying $4 for a 3 chapter book? A 10 book series total cost $40, for roughly 1000 pages, that is an $8- $10 book value.

Starting a new series with this one, and introducing new characters can slow the up the pace of the plot. The author managed to avoid that by you by introducing the Main character, a were bear fighting the urge to hibernate while attending college in the dead of winter. Good read.
