Pages : 337
Book Description
Return to 1930s Burning Cove, California, the glamorous seaside playground for Hollywood stars, mobsters, spies, and a host of others who find more than they bargain for in this mysterious town. Maggie Lodge, assistant to the reclusive advice columnist known only as Dear Aunt Cornelia to her readers, hires down-but-not-quite-out private eye Sam Sage to help track down the person who is blackmailing her employer. Maggie and Sam are a mismatched pair. As far as Sam is concerned, Maggie is reckless and in over her head. She is not what he had in mind for a client, but he can’t afford to be choosy. Maggie, on the other hand, is convinced that Sam is badly in need of guidance and good advice. She does not hesitate to give him both. In spite of the verbal fireworks between them, they are fiercely attracted to each other, but each is convinced it would be a mistake to let passion take over. They are, after all, keeping secrets from each other. Sam is haunted by his past, which includes a marriage shattered by betrayal and violence. Maggie is troubled by intense and vivid dreams—dreams that she can sometimes control. There are those who want to run experiments on her and use her for their own purposes, while others think she should be committed to an asylum. When the pair discovers someone is impersonating Aunt Cornelia at a conference on psychic dreaming and a woman dies at the conference, the door is opened to a dangerous web of blackmail and murder. Secrets from the past are revealed, leaving Maggie and Sam in the path of a ruthless killer who will stop at nothing to exact vengeance.

In February 2004, Terina Devine is hovering on the edge of her life, confronting her past and praying for inner strength to forgive herself and let go of a choice she was forced to make. Thirty-three years have gone by since then. Yet, even with the passage of time the decision for that choice still continues to destroy her soul. Everyone knows her as "Bitch". She earned the title after the loss of the man she had loved more than her own life. Friends had been worried. They had tried to convince themselves that she was only delusional as a result of the shock of his untimely death, and in due course her gireving would ease, and she would soon return to her happy self. But they had been wrong. To some, Terina was regarded as knowingly insensitive. Others simply thought she had gone mad when her emotions began clouding her better judgement and challenging her heart. When She Dreams is one woman's story, chock full of love, comfort, desire, and a sprinkling of humour. But most importantly, it's a story of how a life can be changed when mental illness, mixed with tragedy, defeats a mind and chills a once warm heart.

But life can waylay the best of intentions.... Nine years ago, a humiliated Larkin Lanier fled Georgetown, South Carolina, knowing she could never go back. But when she finds out that her mother has disappeared, she realizes she has no choice but to return to the place she both loves and dreads—and to the family and friends who never stopped wishing for her to come home.
