After a summer of overcoming her fears, Emma can’t afford for the news she just received to shake her. Not when it might jeopardize her future with Riley. And not when the kids in downtown Portland are counting on her to keep the center’s doors open. With the added strain of a broken relationship and an unexpected friendship reminding her what’s at stake, what other choice does she have?
But as mounting danger compromises her safety, friction intensifies until the risk of keeping her promise threatens all she’s fought to believe. Caught in a moment when every light in her life goes out, Emma must find the courage to lead her heart no matter what it costs her.
Falling in love is as easy as falling asleep. Holding on to that love is like trying to hold on to a dream. Even when it feels more real than life. Join Emma in this inspiring story about real love, costly choices, and the courage to fight for what you believe in.

Not long ago I reviewed the first book in this series, Eyes Unveiled. (You can read my review HERE.) Light Unshaken is the second book in this series and I would really recommend reading Eyes Unveiled before starting this book. The emotional back history is something you need to understand.
What I love about this series is the emotional pull it has. I am drawn into Emma's world and I see and feel things with her. Emma is a character people can relate to- her emotions, her desire to make a difference, her vulnerability, and even her mistakes.
Emma and Riley are engaged in this book and fully in love but then Riley is made an offer he cannot refuse and suddenly they are worlds apart and fighting for the love they thought was so strong. Emma feels far away and left out of Riley's busy world. She fights loneliness and doubt. Emma keeps herself busy though and tries not to wallow. She has a goal, a place and people that need her. She wants to make a difference but it is hard work and the danger that surrounds her seems to be escalating. The emotions are high in this book for sure.
Falling in love is easy to do. Staying in love and fighting for that love when things get hard is something else entirely. I enjoyed this book and I read through it quickly. It has a fantastic forward momentum with that emotional pull that I love when reading. This book left off in a place that surely cannot be the end so I am assuming that means another book is to come. I hope. :)
