Description
Historical Paranormal Romance
The Lady Bryce has a gift. She can enter dreams and persuade. It has served her well, especially in eliminating unsatisfactory suitors of her father's choosing.
When she encounters Lord Rowland, she knows he is a man who likes women. Bryce decides to visit him in his sleep and make him desire her above all others. A virgin, she has discovered a diary from a leman who describes seduction in detail.
When she has driven Rowland to the edge of longing, she extracts a promise that he will marry her. She goes to Court to ensure he keeps his word. When he finally agrees to honor his word, Bryce is consumed with guilt. She knows she has extracted his promise unfairly and tried to demur. But he insists and they are wed.
The couple go to Rowland's castle and Bryce must now deal with his shrew of a sister, Emma. Bryce decides to soften Emma's attitude by entering the other woman's dreams. Bryce is shocked to discover Emma, too, is a dream dancer. Sharing this power bonds the two women. As time passes, Bryce and Rowland fall in love.
Former suitors discover Bryce has influenced their decisions and take revenge. Bryce is accused of witchcraft and arrested. In 1616 England, under James I, this is a heinous crime punishable by death. Rowland discovers Bryce's secret and now must decide if he truly loves her or if he has been bewitched. What is truly the extent of her power? Emma defends her sister-in-law and Rowland realizes he, indeed, is in love with his wife. He must save her from prison and possible execution. Eventually, Bryce is freed and the lovers are reunited. However, another still seeks retribution and attacks them. They fight the enemies and are victorious.
Finally, Bryce and Rowland are able to live happily ever after.
The Dream Dancer is available for purchase in both print and ebook formats.
