First off, I would like to say that I enjoyed how you began the review with a little background information about the author I might use that sometime :wink: . I liked how you described the book but I will probably not be reading it as I feel that I fall into that "younger audience" category. I would like to end out by saying that your review was a really fun read and I look forward to reading your future reviews.

Normally I'm not into romance but the blurb and then this review piqued my interest. I like the idea of the main character wanting to live in his dream world, but having to face reality. So
I've added this to my TBR list and congrats on being BOTD.

I don't necessarily mind erotica scenes (heck, if they're well-done, I might enjoy them!), but I can see where they would alienate other readers.

Either way, I was glad to win one of the Kindle copies of this book that OBC made available! I will read just about any mystery/thriller novel, so I know this one will get read sooner or later. Great review, by the way! I appreciate how thorough you were with the review without giving away too much.

I like books that blur the line between dreams and reality. Sounds like a great read. Thanks for the review.

Thank you for your enticing review. I find the whole storyline about the dreams affecting the main character's reality really intriguing.

The only thing that sounds off-putting about this book is the sexual content, and infortunately it is the reason why I won't read it. Your review is brilliant, highlighting everything that needs to be highlighted.

I'm not into romance or erotic books but this one does sound interesting. Might be one my wife will enjoy.

In Your Dreams

The story begins with an intense event that turns out to be a recurring dream. The line between reality and dream keeps the readers and Adam involved in a struggle to reveal what the subconscious is hiding. Sexy. Thrilling. Erotic. Tense. Intriguing.

Thank you for your review - a suave playboy being jolted by nightmares is interesting, but the sample I read felt a little forced and so focused on the physical interactions I was left concerned about the degree of character development.

Adam seems like the perfect bachelor,handsome and rich. He has trauma from his coma after the accident causing his nightmares and the imaginary perfect Eva.Now Roana coming in the story spices it up more and the sizzling attraction they share makes this story an even more delicious read.

I love the idea of the dream world. In a way, it’s a nice metaphor of Adam’s ideal love for Eva vs his potential real love for Roanna.

The blurb was really intriguing and I like the premise, but the sample left me disappointed. There was no romantic build-up or opportunity to become emotionally invested before the abrupt sex scene in the first chapter. It felt really shallow - but maybe it develops more layers after the end of the sample. In any case, there wasn't enough there to keep me interested enough to read the rest, and I prefer to avoid erotica, anyway. I'm glad you enjoyed it, though. Thanks for the honest review!

This seems like an interesting read and I"ld have love to read it especially because of the character development and plot twist in the novel but the erotic content I'm not in for.
