Eve Applegate gets a new neighbor who is absolutely gorgeous. She considers herself a bit unattractive and over- weight so she becomes extremely tongue-tied around him. Theodore Baldwin is not quite what he appears to be. His mission, if you will, is to bring Eve into her "Realization" because the fate of the world is depending on it. According to the Mayan calender, this all must happen before the end of the countdown year of 2012. If not, could the world have the same doomed fate of "Atlantis."
Eve is just trying to make a better life for herself by working and going to school. Her world is suddenly turned upside down when Theo comes on the scene. He leads her to believe he is writing a book and asks her to read chapters that he has written. This is all in an attempt to win Eve's trust and lead her in the direction she needs to go. Whenever Eve's apartment blows up, she finds herself on a journey that she has a difficult time believing. Can Theo truly be who and what he says he is?
This is an extremely interesting and fascinating book. The author weaves lots of the Mayan calender history and events into the story through Theo's "book." I found this to be quite unique in the way it was presented. Even though I found it fascinating, I became bogged down sometimes because I really had no clue as to what the history was actually telling me. This in no way, however, deterred from the story. Theo sounds like the kind of man that dreams are made of. Eve has a rather poor self-esteem issue so she is actually insecure. A bit of a loner, she relishes the attention she receives from Theo. During their travels together, Eve grows and becomes more secure in the woman that she truly is. There is obviously some chemistry between these two; but it is not until close to the end that we discover why Theo is fighting it. The storyline is well written and flows nicely throughout. If you enjoy stories that are a bit out of the ordinary, you will surely enjoy this one. I highly recommend it.
I wish to thank the author for providing me with a copy for reading and reviewing purposes. I was not required to write a positive review. I was not compensated in anyway except for receiving the book to read.

"11:11" takes readers through a journey of several different legends, leading up to the Mayan calendar prediction of the world ending on December 21, 2012. The author did a great job of keeping readers hooked on everything going on from page one as Eve, a young woman trying to get her life in order, is suddenly pulled into a world of legends that she is a big part of.

11:11 Countdown to 2012: An Explorations eBook is a 101 primer on the spiritual and meta-physical enlightenment's leading up to the events of 2012.
Eve Applegate is seeing the numbers 11:11 wherever she goes and she begins to feel like she is losing her sanity. After meeting her new neighbour, Theodore Baldwin, who is an aspiring author, new light is shed upon Eve's confusion.
Befriending Eve, Theo asks her if she would edit his book for him. Though Eve has tried to put her distance betwixt the two, she finds him to be sexually appealing and she feels an electrical surge whenever he is in her presence that she is unable to explain, however, she finally agrees to edit the book and her life is forever changed.
Eve is flabbergasted, for Theo is writing about the numbers she is seeing and explains the phenomena that is surrounding many inhabitants of the Earth. Big things are approaching and Eve is terrified as she is thrust into danger and whisked around the world on a quest, one in which mankind's destiny rests upon her shoulders.
Verna Clay shares a little bit about all the spiritual and meta-physical events that are unfolding on Earth. She touches upon each of them in a way that encourages the reader to do more research into each of the topics. Such topics as, crop circles, mayan prophecy, Atlantis, the Henges, and numerology to name just a few are briefly and in generalized terms explained to the reader.
If you like meta-physical reads with a bit of a love story thrown in, then you will enjoy this book. I thought it was good but could have been better. The story jumped around to quickly to absorb the knowledge being shared and a more slower paced account would have given the reader more to absorb than just having facts thrown at them dispersed between the love affair that appears to be growing between Theo and Eve. If you know anything on the topics mentioned, you won't find much to challenge you in this story, however, if you are an amateur to new age thoughts then this would definitely be a boon for you.

This author has done a great job at mixing romance with the phenomenon of 11:11. I definitely recommend this book for those readers wanting to understand why they are constantly seeing 11:11 in their lives. The author has included lots of twists to make this a page turner. This is a great read for raising consciousness and a deeper understanding of the 'unknown'. W. N
