Noel Maher and Amelia Jarvis share a perfect life: jobs they love and a young daughter they adore. But their idyllic lives are about to change forever.
'The Arms of Morpheus' tells the desperate story of two parents as they struggle to come to terms with - and battle against - the most terrifying ordeal imaginable: the impending death of their child. The book examines their coping mechanisms and pits the power of dreams and ancient mythology against the data driven world of science; forcing them to confront painful, suppressed family secrets and, through their differences, work together if they are to save the one thing that is most precious to them.

The Lady of the Night
Based on the world of Neil Gaiman's The Sandman, yet spun into something entirely new... (I do not own the rights! It is a FanFic based story) When night falls, she walks among the stars. Nyxana, Goddess of the Night, was born of ancient darkness, yet her path is her own to shape. Within her realm she guards dreams, secrets, and the fragile beauty that only flourishes in shadow. But destiny binds her to Morpheus, the Dream King. In times of turmoil, they find strength in one another - though the challenges ahead will test the very foundation of their bond. As gods and Endless weave their schemes, Nyxana must face betrayal, desire, and the dangerous truth of her own power. Is the connection between Night and Dream strong enough to endure? Or will it be reshaped into something neither of them foresaw?Complete
