I received this book through Netgalley in exchange for an honest review
DNF @ 12%
I was ready and willing to be swept away in this book. Unfortunately, I just couldn't get into it. The more I learned about Isabel, the more I disliked her and her actions. Also, I'm not a huge fan of reading about slaves/slave owners – it makes me uncomfortable and I understand this is a more personal feeling.
The book feels choppy to me because of the switch between Max and Isabel. One part of the book feels like a contemporary romance (Isobel) and the other feels like a historical fiction (Max) with the slight current of fantasy through Max traveling through time.
This also begs the questions of who the dream keeper and their daughter is, because these powers don't depend upon dreams.
I won't say I think no one will enjoy this book, but I think I would recommend it more to people who like both historical and women's fiction novels.
