When You Close Your Eyes
by Roxanne D. Howard
Genre: Supernatural Romance
Dreams are the perfect shelter for fantasies, safe havens to step inside
without changing our daily lives. For Lark Braithwaite, all that is
about to change. During the last six months, Lark has dreamt of a
mysterious Irish lover who knows what she wants and gives her exactly
what she needs. In her waking life in busy London, things aren’t as
ideal as her long-term relationship with her controlling fiancé
Charles has hit a dry spell.

mysterious Irish lover who knows what she wants and gives her exactly
what she needs. In her waking life in busy London, things aren’t as
ideal as her long-term relationship with her controlling fiancé
Charles has hit a dry spell.
When Lark is called home to Oregon for her father’s funeral, she comes
face to face with the demons from her past, but she never expects to
meet her dream lover in the flesh. Niall O’Hagan steps straight out
of her fantasies and into her life, and the powerful connection they
share rocks her foundation. Although she’s dealing with the
bitterness of her fiancé’s betrayal and his jealousy, Niall soon
stirs Lark’s awareness of her superficial existence and reawakens her
sexuality….and her soul.

The book sounds very good! Best of luck to you!
Thank you, Ilona! 🙂
Lovely book trailer, Roxanne! I’ve gotta ask–was this story inspired by a dream?
Oh gosh, I wish! 🙂 My answer is quite a bit nerdier than you’d expect, I’m afraid. Ha ha. I’m a psychology graduate, and I’ve always been interested in the power of both dreams and thoughts to become things. What we think about more often than not becomes real, and comes to pass.
I was interested in Lark delving into her subconscious mind and seeing how her dreams of Niall manifesting in her every day life might affect her, and when I finally started writing the book, it took on a life of its own. Dreams are very significant and interesting things in terms of what they represent for each of us individually. I think it’s pretty fascinating to explore possibilities and how our lives can be changed for the good when we grab hold of what our subconscious minds are trying to tell us. In Lark’s case, a smoking hot Irish guy. 😉
