Dream
Weavers
They are the Oneiroi, Greek daemons of dreams.
As Dream Weavers, their mission is to watch over sleeping humans—for without
dreams, chaos can reign. So the Oneiros brothers blend in with the waking world
by day and watch over their charges by night, protecting humans from the
creatures who would prey upon their sleep. But what happens when the Oneiroi
have dreams of their own? And what happens when they fall in love with those
they’re duty-bound to protect – or the enemies they’ve sworn to fight?
Research scientist Shea Caldwell has always had a thing for security
consultant, Derek Oneiros. He’s smart, handsome, and built like a Greek god. As
attracted as she is to him, though, she’s afraid to let him into her bed –
because she’s dangerous when she sleeps.
Derek is known among his brothers as “The Machine,” yet his carefully
cultivated control is put to the test whenever he’s around Shea. The woman is
as beautiful as she is intelligent, but they’ve always kept things professional
– until Derek learns why. Shea is sleepwalking again, but what she doesn’t know
is that he may be the only one who can help her. For he
is a Greek
daemon, and he’s charged with protecting her dreams.
With Shea threatened, Derek makes things personal, and their nights together
turn steamy and intimate. He’s ready to battle against the Somnambulist that’s
been controlling his lover in her sleep, yet is the night creature really
causing all the harm? When Shea’s groundbreaking research notes are stolen,
it’s clear that other evil forces may be at work.
Excerpt:
He’d let her fall asleep.
It was the first clear thought that ran through Shea’s mind
when she opened her eyes. That and the fact that Derek was still with her. His
heat pressed against her back, and his arm draped heavily across her waist.
They were lying side by side on her bed, her body tucked up close against his.
Yet even as she responded in pleasure, she tensed.
Darkness was falling. They’d spent the day making love, and
now the sun was setting. Night was creeping in. She stared at the oil painting
that hung on the wall until her nerves began to crawl. Even the littlest thing
could set her Somnambulist off—and today had been anything but normal—yet she’d
let herself be lulled into sleep.
What had she been thinking?
“There you are,” a deep voice rumbled. The hand against her
stomach flexed, and she was pulled more tightly against the big male form
behind her.
A muscled thigh slipped between her legs, and Shea arched as
a soft kiss was placed on the side of her neck. The intimate embrace had her
groaning. Obviously, she hadn’t been thinking. Her brain had been shorted out,
disconnected, and thrown right into the bathwater.
How could she have let her guard down like that? The freedom
had been fantastic, arousing and intoxicating as fine wine, but how could she
have forgotten what had been happening to her? What had happened just this
morning?
Had she… Oh, God. Had she done anything in her sleep? With
Derek here?
“How long have I been out?” she asked in a rush.
“Not long.”
That rumbling voice was too disconcerting, too sexy. She had
to look into his eyes. Tucking the sheet up high under her arms, she rolled
over to face him. When she did, her breath caught in her chest. His short hair
was mussed, and dark shadows lined his jaw. The bad boy look didn’t fit his
character, but it was so incredibly hot she had to press her legs together.
Unable to help herself, she let her gaze drop. She took in
the well-drawn lines of his body, his muscled chest and rippling abs, but the
sheet sitting low on his hips wasn’t what made her look up again. It was the
relaxed look on his face. She’d never seen him so calm, so relaxed, so at ease
in the moment. It made her belly warm.
Relaxed had to be good, right? If she’d gotten up and danced
zombie pirouettes around the bedroom, he wouldn’t be relaxed.
Or so obviously ready to make love to her again.

About the Author
When
taking the Myers-Briggs personality test in high school, Kimberly was rated as
an INFJ (Introverted-Intuitive-Feeling-Judging). This result sent her into a
panic, because there were no career paths recommended for the type.
Fortunately, it turned out to be well-suited to a writing career. Since
receiving that dismal outlook, Kimberly has become an award-winning author of romance
and erotica. She has written for seven publishing houses, both domestic
and international, and has recently focused her efforts on the exciting world
of self-publishing. When not writing, she enjoys movies, sports, traveling,
music, and sunshine. In her mind, a beach, some rock ‘n’ roll, and a good book
make for a perfect day.
