Short description

Bearers of the key that can bring down a global conspiracy, Faith and Chris were raised in hiding and never told of their extraordinary power or of each other. When Faith is found, brutally attacked and left confined to a hospital bed in a coma, she awakes to the disturbing captivity of her dreams with one unsuspecting lifeline to the real world and sole hope for survival: Chris.

Extended description

Dr. Christian Luxford is a promising neurologist with a secret: Tormented all his life by a female presence that invades his dreams, his promising research is secretly geared toward tackling -what he believes- is his own latent insanity.

His life capsizes when he is assigned the exceptional case of a young woman, Faith Fernandez, who, following a brutal attack, lies in a captive state of perpetual sleep. To his bewilderment, she is none other than the live embodiment of the female delusion that haunts him every night.

Allured by the enigma of the stunning brunette and their perplexing connection, Luxford sets out to unravel the mystery. What he will discover, not only unveils the disturbing truth about his past and those he loves, but places him and Faith at the core of an astonishing conspiracy three decades in the making. With a target on his own back, Luxford must race to save Faith's life while thwarting a new kind of Machiavellian threat.

Review by: ficbot on May 25, 2010 : star star star
I got this for free during 'Read an Ebook Week' and do not think it is worth $7.99. I give the author props for a neat premise and a very gripping prologue, but as I got further into the book it started to drag a little. The dream sequences were not as interesting as the real-life mystery, and certain turns of phrase made it clear that English is not the author's native language. The book has promise, but it needs a bit of an edit, and at a commercial-level price like this one, readers deserve a book that's had one. I checked the author's website and she seems like a neat person, I will keep an eye out for her other stuff. But this book imho is not worth $7.99 in its current state.
