Eyes as black as night, a voice as soft as silk. "I will find you. Everything will be alright." Emily doesn't know who he is or why he invades her dreams each night. Yet, he is the only source of comfort in her very tragic life. Unfortunately, dreams are just, well, dreams. One gloomy morning, however, a mysterious stranger appears out of nowhere, offering his help. Under normal circumstances, Emily would refuse to accept it, but the man's onyx eyes are so oddly familiar. What begins with a promising encounter that gives Emily hope gradually turns into a nightmare she cannot wake up from. Note: Contains mild depictions of abuse. I try to update at least once a week.

When Mollie starts to prefer the dreams she's having to the painful reality of life, she's forced to choose between embracing a fantasy or the man she loves. ***** Since she was seven, Mollie Cutright has known two truths: she loves Howard Flynn and her dreams are the most magical part of her life. Each day she suffers at the hands of her abusive parents, but each night she is surrounded by a loving family who call her by a different name. Growing up in 1930's Virginia, no one has patience for a girl who might be mad, so Mollie strives to keep her dreams (and how often they intrude on her reality) a secret. But when her secret comes out, Mollie is sent to an asylum, though not before she and Howard are secretly engaged. It is at the asylum she discovers the dreams are echoes of her past lives. She's an immortal, if she makes a journey to claim her heritage. The problem is, if she continues down this path, she can never see Howard, the love of her life, again.
