❝ It's hard to dream when you can't sleep and reality is a nightmare. ❞

Kaylee Thompson lost the ability to sleep the moment her twin sister died in a car crash. As their mother spirals deeper into grief and Kaylee's own grip on reality begins to shift, she makes a fateful decision and pretends to be her sister.

Sleepless nights lead to midnight strolls, a strange boy named Rowan and an invitation to escape her desperation. Every night adventure makes Kaylee feel more and more like her true self-until she learns the truth that soon resurfaces. And in the end, it all goes back to this question: "How far would you go to find the lost parts of yourself and be whole again?"

You will definitely notice some grammar issues throughout the book. My goal is to one day do a complete revision and correct all those errors and make some changes to make the story even better. Still, I hope you enjoy! Make sure to let me know what you think! All my love, Samantha
