Somebody likes it hot.
I'm somebody!
Cassandra Hudson has traveled across country to a small town in South Carolina to find a tall man with deep, blue eyes that she’s only met in her dreams. She “sees” that he’s in danger and wants to stop him from a possible death. But more than that, she’s desperate to solve a mystery that involves her husband who has been dead for over two years. Too bad for her, her dream man wants to solve the mysteries of her body more than help her find a solution to her problem.
When Dan Morgan stops to help a beautiful woman on the side of the road outside his hometown, he doesn’t realize that she will drag him into the world of the paranormal in an effort to find out what happened to her husband and the half million dollars he was accused of stealing. What he does realize is the strong attraction he feels for her, despite his distrust of anything mystical, and the undeniable power she holds over him using her sexy body as a lure.
Love—if they can capture it—will make it both easier and harder for them to find the answers they need.
"Ripe with emotion, Man of Her Dream is my favorite type of romance. The kind where you don't know right off the bat there's going to be a happy-ending. Don't get me wrong I want the characters to have a happy-ending; I just don't want to know it three minutes into the story. Throughout the entire novel you knew without a shadow of doubt Cassandra and Dan were destined for each other. It was revealed in every word and every touch, but Dan was so determined not to let his life be ruled by fate. No matter how much he loved Cassandra, he didn't believe he'd ever be able to accept or live with her gift of sight. I was on the edge of my seat, hoping these they would be together.
Ms. Knight is an extremely talented author and speaking from experience, one who knows how to give the reader exactly what they want and still remain true to her characters. Do not miss anything by this wonderful author." - Sharyn McGinty, In the Library Reviews
"I am writing just to say how much I loved this book! I read exclusively on my handheld computer and while I was working overtime, yesterday I just couldn't put my handheld down until I found out if Dan and Cassandra got back together." - Barbara, a reader
"The Man of her Dreams is a great romance with sex, mystery and more sex thrown in for good measure. Dee S. Knight's ability to weave a good mystery really stands out in this novel. She is able to show that love is not always easy, you really have work at it. I had a little trouble with the way Dan treated Cassandra because of her gift. She was good enough to bed but not for a relationship. It was a slow go, but even he had to bend to the powers of love. If you like a hot read with a mystery thrown, this is the book for you." - 4/1/2 stars, Pat McGrew, Timeless Tales
"MAN OF HER DREAMS to me is a phenomenal riveting book to read. I ran through a gamut of emotions whilst reading and stayed with me long after I had finished the book. ... Dee S. Knight has created a totally engrossing tale with deep emotions, erotic sensual lovemaking and humorous moments this book either had me giggling out loud, holding my breath or trying to swallow the lump that on occasions whilst reading appeared in my throat. MAN OF HER DREAMS is a first class novel of the highest calibre MAN OF HER DREAMS is the first novel I have read by Dee S. Knight and it won't be the last. I have placed Dee S Knight on my automatic buy list. I'm off to buy the other's she has published and look forward to reading many more." Gail N. - Romance Junkies www.romancejunkies.com
"Dee Knight's Man of Her Dreams is the perfect combination of hot sex, hanky-twisting romance, psychic phenomenon, and a darn good mystery. Cassandra and Dan are compelling, enticingly conflicted characters who don't pull their punches. The plot twists will keep even the most ardent mystery reader guessing, and the powerful emotional highs and lows will force the romance reader to keep that box of tissues nearby. Kudos to Ms. Knight".- Jasmine Haynes
"Dee S. Knight has done a good job of weaving a mystery that will keep you reading. I have to say, the author has a real knack for suspense...oh, and let's not forget very descriptive sex scenes. Pick up Man of her Dreams and prepare to be excited... in more ways than one!" - The Romance Studio
"Dee S. Knight has a fan for life! ... Ms. Knight weaves romance and mystery like magic, keeping readers on the edge of their seats and flipping the pages quickly. The sensual, steamy love scenes, well, they were an added bonus for this reader. These scenes are hot, erotic and exciting, but even without them, this tale would still shine brightly because of Dee S. Knight’s wonderful writing talent and enthralling suspense....This author is on my auto-buy list!" - The Road to Romance
"This book was not too far from the traditional "mainstream" romance, and in fact was quite reminiscent of a Jayne Anne Krentz novel where a little mild paranormal activity is mixed with a fascinating mystery all spiced up with a rip-roaring romance... "What happens next?" is really what drives us readers to read, right? Ms. Knight's version of "what happens next" is pretty great, pretty hot, and thoroughly entertaining. Whether you like paranormal romance, or mainstream romance, this is not to be missed." Hurricane Val, Reader
"Dee S. Knight writes an emotionally compelling story with Man of Her Dreams. There were many times during the reading of this novel that I wanted to comfort Cassandra and rage at Dan. Ms. Knight bring true life to a small town and all the people in it in a unique way, showing common conversations and actions normally left out of books in favor of less time. However, this in no way detracts from the story line; rather it pulls the reader in making them feel that they are eating a wonderful dinner with the family. Man of Her Dreams is a romantic action filled novel that I’m sure to keep around and continue to read over and over again." - JERR JustEroticRomanceReview
"Dee S. Knight's writes another fantastic novel! Man of Her Dreams will keep you turning pages as the plot twists and the mystery is unfurled, while the steamy romance keeps your heart thumping!" Leigh Wyndfield, author of TRUE SEEING
"This book was a fairly easy read even though the plot was full of twists and turns. In addition to the love story a full blown mystery was thrown in. The mystery aspect of this storyline added so much more to this book and raised it above the usual erotic books. The sex scenes were sensually written. Cassandra is a fairly strong and intelligent heroine. Dan could have been a more alpha male, but he was filled with indecision regarding their relationship. The two characters do sizzle together whether in bed or out. All in all this was a very enjoyable book and I look forward to the author's next work!" - Love Romances
"The premise of the story was great; I loved the secondary characters, Dan's mom and his two aunts a lot, although you didn't see them until 3/4 of the way through the book. Ms. Knight has a lot of promise and talent. The dialogue was snappy and the sexual tension is intense. I look forward to her next effort to see where she takes me." - A Romance Review
"Knight does an excellent job of weaving romance, mystery and suspense together to create a well-developed story. It will keep you turning pages well into the night. Her steamy, descriptive love scenes enhance this erotic thriller." - 4 stars, Robin, Romantic Times BOOKclub, Nove, 2003
The road sign indicating that Greenwood was only seventeen miles away was a blessing. It had been a long day and all Cassandra wanted was dinner, a drink of something strong and a hot shower. All of that would be hers, she promised herself, once she got to her goal, Greenwood.
I can keep going for another seventeen miles. Then, after dinner, drink and a shower, she would fall into bed and hopefully have a good night’s sleep, without the dreams that had plagued her for the past two months.
She sighed with relief as she passed through the town of Abbeville and saw another sign that said she was a mere thirteen miles from Greenwood. Smiling in anticipation, she picked up speed only to hear a loud bang and feel the car pull sharply to the right. With a firm hand on the wheel, she coasted to the side of the road.
The problem was, unfortunately, with the front tire. As she stooped to take a look, she cringed. It was definitely more than flat, it was totally blown out. Damn. That meant buying a new tire rather than just getting this one patched.
She stood and slammed her hand on the hood in frustration and fatigue. After more than ten hours of driving that day, this delay was the last thing she needed.
Sighing, and then laughing, more as a means to keep from crying as anything else, she opened the passenger door to find her cell phone. The sound of a diesel engine drew her attention to the back of her car, where the largest pickup truck she had ever seen was stopping behind her, its four-way flashers blinking.
The late afternoon sun blinded her slightly, so she put her hand up to shade her eyes. Even so, all she could determine was a shape coming toward her, tall, broad-shouldered, with a wide chest narrowing to a lean waist and hips. Long legs propelled the man toward her. When he got closer, he smiled and she could see straight, white teeth and the bluest eyes she had ever seen, set into a tanned face. His hair was dark brown and a little shaggy, but all in all, he was a wonderful specimen of manhood. A dream of a man, literally.
When he stopped beside her, she looked up into his face in amazement. “It’s you!”
