    About this audiobook

    Some dreams shouldn't come true…
    Maddie Browne thought she'd grown out of the recurring nightmare that plagued her as a child – the swing in the garden, the kind red-haired giant and the arms which grab her from behind and try to take her away…
    Trying to move on, Maddie travels to Devon, but a disturbing encounter with a gypsy fortune teller, removes all hope of relaxation. And then there's the fact that Maddie's dream seems to be coming true.

      I did know the characters from book 1 but I do say it works perfect as a stand alone.

      It's about Maddie (who is friends with the heroine from book 1.) She goes to visit her friend after her parents died. Oh and she found out she was adopted, and her sister is a real piece of work.

      What this book then has is a bit of a mystery. Who were her real parents? Why did they give her up for adoption? Why does she have this strange dream?

      And then there is the suspense part. Some secrets are better left buried. You never know who will come for you.

      But hey do not forget the romance part. Though this is not a romance book. There are looks, thoughts, but no real romantic action. She meets Alex, who has been in jail and wants to turn his life around. They slowly become friends, they slowly want more, but there is a lot going on. Love comes slowly, and makes it feel real. No rushing into things here.

      What we instead get is a mystery suspense love story. The danger is constant, but there is a HEA on the horizon :)

      I kind of hope a certain new character gets a book of her own...just saying.
