Barely Dreaming

Stephanie Beck

(fantasy)

As dreams come alive, trouble lurks around the corner.

When Neela Raymond and three of her college girlfriends take a camping trip over spring break, they’re abducted by a group of men and held captive for a week. At least that’s what Neela’s been told—she can’t remember any details of the horrifying event. But one thing is very apparent—during that week she became pregnant. Afraid of the possibilities, Neela finds it difficult to attend classes, eat, or sleep.

When Neela finally falls asleep, she wakes in a dream world, where she finds Gabe O’Shay. Though she can’t remember him either, something in her recognizes him.

Gabe and Neela are best friends of a different sort. Created in Neela’s mind when she was just a child, Gabe has always been her dream friend, growing as she did, to eventually become the man of her dreams.

With Gabe’s help, Neela’s memory begins to return, and ugly truths emerge. Snagged in a violent, illegal scheme, Neela will have to struggle for survival. The nightmare is not over yet.

Meanwhile, Gabe has managed to find a tear between the dream world and the real world, but will he arrive too late to help his Neela?

 "I am so jealous of this writer! She wrote a beautifully told romance about a second chance at love with a pair of very unique characters in basically twenty pages."

"If you love sewing, cross-stitch, or knitting, you will love the magic behind the needle and the hero that will always come home to his seamstress."

Blurb

Abby thought South Dakota would be boring and it was, right until she met her father's patients. Dan helped Abby's father tend to the reanimated people in town, helping people whose lives were unfortunately cut short live a little longer. With Abby's father dead and only Abby to help, Dan and the town have to give her every reason to want to stay and help. That desire to keep Abby in town turns into Dan wanting to keep her much closer.

When teenage zombie hunters come to town, it'll be up to Abby to help her town and maybe even save the day.
