Sleeping is overrated. How much could you get done if you didn't have to sleep? Dean and Madison are two scientists who have created a drug that makes it possible for people to stay awake. Only, they haven't. When the two discover that the drug causes dangerous side effects, they try to stop it from going on the market, only to end up on the run from the drug company that wants that drug available for purchase at any cost. Falling in love and losing could be the price Dean and Madison pay in Awake.
