Description

What is the inspiration behind those vivid dreams each night?

Taylor has an ordinary life, an ordinary job, and an ordinary boyfriend. Her co-worker, Greg, has the high-end looks to go with his high-end lifestyle. Taylor's big break comes when she is partnered with Greg to create an ultra-green, luxury resort off the Atlantic coast. As the project moves along, the two experience setbacks. Some small, some in their personal lives, some as large as getting stranded on an island during a hurricane. Their chemistry is palpable and literally electric despite being in long-term relationships. Those relationships might hinder them from being romantic during the day, but not while sleeping.

In Tranquility by Maggie Durst, readers experience fantasy, comedy, and inspiration to make dreams into reality.

A Note From the Publisher

After writing scientific articles on animal behavior and climate change, creative writing became much more appealing to Maggie Durst. Tranquility is her first dive into the world of fiction. Maggie wants to give the world some happy endings and let her readers escape from reality, coming back recharged and energized.

Featured Reviews

Whilst Taylor and Greg both seem to have their own lives with their respective partners, they find themselves forced to confront their feelings when they begin working together. As architects working together on a ultra-green, luxury resort off the Atlantic coast, they face a variety of setbacks. Not only do they find themselves stranded on an island during a hurricane, but they begin to share similar dreams.
The paranormal element gave this storyline, a unique twist, with their feelings becoming more evident through their dream sequences. I enjoyed seeing how their relationship developed, and how they dealt with their feelings knowing the impact this might have on their partners. Whilst slow to begin, the pace and dialogue kept me thoroughly engaged.
I voluntarily read and reviewed an advanced copy of this book from NetGalley. All thoughts and opinions are my own.
