This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice. Alex wakes on a bench in Split with no memory of Mars, the Children, the Nine-Screen Room—or the woman who has loved him across lifetimes. His wallet says he is Alex. His nearly empty refrigerator offers half a lemon. Neither explains why strangers watch him, why familiar songs make him ache for a life he cannot remember, or why a blonde woman named Millie looks at him as if he has forgotten the universe.

Then Mara enters his life—warm, witty, and impossibly familiar. Children appear who call him Dad. A red lighter, an old cassette, and flashes of blue energy begin cracking Smith’s perfect reset. The more Alex remembers, the more dangerous remembering becomes: the Watchers are closing in, reality is narrowing, and the force hunting him will erase far more than one man’s past.

But some promises live deeper than memory.

*Awakening* is a cinematic science-fiction adventure about reincarnation, identity, found family, and a love stubborn enough to survive the end of a universe. Blending mystery, romance, action, and humor, it asks one irresistible question: if everything you knew were taken from you, would your soul still recognize the people who made you who you are?

The Reset erased Alex’s life.
It forgot to erase his choice.
