This sounds like it could well be the book of my dreams (bad pun intended...lol).

I could do with a little fantasy romance in my life right now. I like the concept of the storyline. Spending two years in a dreamworld, where he falls in love with his dream girl. Then, wakes up to the real world and falls in love with a real girl. But, will he be able to leave his dreamworld behind, and let his dream girl go? Throw in a little erotica (not too much, that would ruin it for me), and that's a perfect mix for a quiet afternoon.

Kinda curious as to why he would have to "...cut the cord from his dream world?" Unless there is the fear of him slipping back into a coma. It might be nice to have the best of both worlds.

Can't wait to get started on what seems to be an exciting read. Thank you for your delightful review.

:tiphat: This is interesting. A twist of a bible story Adam and Eve in the Garden of Aden. Its much interesting as the story is "growing" steadily with the characters till the end. I really enjoyed it

From the review, the storyline is definitely interesting and a little unexpected but seems to be the sort that will keep you interested till the last page.

It was a cool start to the book. I love the description and I have to admit that I like the character Adam but I really hope Roanna isn’t the love interest throughout the entire book. I guess I’ll just have to continue reading it in order to ease my curious mind. :)

Great review. This sounds like a very intriguing book. I love a thrilling book full of twists and turns. Adam’s dream world is an especially interesting draw for me. Congrats to the author on a great review! Thanks so much for sharing.

The storyline is interesting, that while in a coma he travels to another time and place through his mind. Its definitely a new concept. I like how he transitions from a jerk to a better person. I would love to read this book. Thank you for the review.

I crave to read something like this, a storyline I haven't read before. This review gave the information I need about the book without spoilers. It's been a long time since I read something new and really interesting and this seems like the perfect book to read next. I also love novels that will make me drawn to the characters especially the main character. Good to know that this one is well-edited too.

Thank you for the in-depth review, and I agree that the concept of dream world verse real world is interesting and definitely worth exploring. However, from reading the sample I'm not sure the plot alone makes up for my immediate dislike of Adam as a character. I am happy to hear he changes for the better, and is even a likable character you want to read more on, because a stale character isn't ever a good character, but I could barely get through the sample, much less get to his development. I am glad you enjoyed it and am sure others will as well, but this book isn't for me.

Thanks for the great review, it really took me through your expectations as you journeyed with the characters in the book. Right now, I'm not looking forward to another exotic sex novel, so I'll pass, for once... :lol2:

Interesting! "Adam morphed from an egotistical bachelor, to a self-conscious jerk, and finally into a memorable character that I would have liked to continue reading about." I like how you describe the characters and it gives us the feeling of you've gotta read this. I'm intrigued with how Adam cope up with the present world while having this lingering feeling of his dream world. Definitely a must read! Thank you and congratulations on book of the day!

Just the sort of storyline I was hoping to read.

Although I absolutely do not like to read about negative situations such as sinister situations like the start of the book where the larger vehicle pops his mirror off and the part of the story where he had an accident. But I guess such fictional backgrounds were created to balance through to a good end and appreciate the various possibilities that could be imagined reaching there.

So, It's the first book sample I've just read on this website. It's about a guy that went into a coma after a motorcycle accident, recovers in two months during which he develops a dream sense which is very vividly, simply and brilliantly described by the author. He is a successful business person and often dreams about his version of a dream girl and meets her in real life too.

It is an interesting and captivating book based on romance.

Sounds intriguing. The theme of trying to choose real life over dream life is always one that piques my interest. So many of us grow up with our heads in books/movies/video games that getting focused on reality as an adult can be challenging, especially if we encounter a huge setback such as Adam's accident. Wish I had more time to squeeze this one into my reading schedule!
