Solenn never believed that a dream could change her life-until it did.
Night after night, she finds herself in the arms of a mysterious man named Elior, a stranger she's never met in the real world. In her dreams, he is everything: her confidant, her home, her soulmate. But each morning, he vanishes like smoke, leaving behind only questions... and a heart that aches for more.
Then one day, Solenn sees him.
In real life.
At church.
But Elior doesn't recognize her.
Because to him, she's the stranger.
Because their love only ever existed in dreams... or so it seems.
As Solenn tries to bridge the impossible distance between the world of dreams and reality, she's faced with a truth she's not ready for-some connections are written in the stars but forgotten by the world. Will fate give their love a second chance, or were they only meant to meet in dreams?
A story of soul-deep love, fate, and the blurred line between fantasy and real life, Dreams and Reality is a romantic journey into what happens when the heart remembers what the world wants us to forget.
