Of Dreams

Adult Grounded Fantasy/Romance
When fumbling 21-year-old Kai Beale discovers her dreams of flying are real, she seeks answers from a dangerous heiress who has sworn to kill her, her friends, and her maybe-boyfriend if they refuse to let their new magic go.

Katherine ‘Kai’ Beale is a college student plagued by dreams of flight and an infatuation with her co-worker, Alex. After a disastrous interview and a bout of nightmares of falling, her life changes when Alex kisses her. For one magical moment, she believes she can do anything, including fly - and she does.

As Kai and her friends untangle what they saw, they discover their understanding of reality is holding them all back from greater power. These untapped abilities are theirs to explore, until a public accident attracts the interest of a mysterious woman in red who appears in their midst to warn them off their path on pain of death. Kai is determined to chase this thread of truth, even at risk to her friends’ lives. Her conviction is shared only by Sehun, whose sense of adventure increasingly draws her in.

An adult fantasy/romance complete at 98,700 words, Of Dreams calls upon imagery of PNW summers as elusive and fleeting as the dreams of your 20s. This planned trilogy will resonate with fans of The Young Elites and Ninth House who long for a deeper magic in the everyday.
