Sometimes we all sleep to escape our greatest fear. Fear always followed Manon Alling in everything she did. Her alcoholic father makes a bet, a stupid, risky one, a bet that he looses and she is forced to go with a man she's never met as his bride. Life was gloomy until she begins to dream, so beautifully tantalizing that she aches to sleep on forever. But there was a monster lurking under that beauty. original cover art by Charlie Bowater, edited by moi.All Rights Reserved
