I dream of dead people. My dreams control me. Until the day I control them. My waking life is a nightmare. Dreams should give me a break, except they don't. I dream of people who are dead: their best moments, their worst moments, and far too often, their deaths. Now, my dreams begin to revolve around Victorian-era Lucy and her happy, mundane life. It's a welcome change from my nightmares, especially when her super-cute future cousin-in-law is around. Until one day, I accidentally change the outcome of a dream. Reality shifts. I'm forced to make a life-changing decision that will have consequences even I can't foresee. All I can do is trust my instinct. Because when you play with death, there are no second chances. My name is Emily Chandler and I dream of the past, literally. In Her Dreams is the first book in the pause-resisting time travel romance trilogy from USA Today best-selling author, Joanna Reeder. As her debut novel, it was a Whitney Award Finalist in the YA Speculative category for 2018. âLucy, you cannot - â He pauses, I can see the wheels turning in his head. âYou cannot marry Charles, you mustnât! You should be with someone who understands what you are going through. Someone who knows your trial and can comfort and be with you when it gets bad.â Tears build. If I thought he was the perfect guy for me before, I am completely convinced of it now. But a blonde-haired girl and a hundred years stood between us. I let go of his hands and back away. Iâm not Lucy. Iâm Emily. âLucy,â he holds his hands, palm up. âI love you. I am in love with you. Please do not marry my cousin.â âAndrew,â I say as the tears flow. He takes it as an invitation and suddenly I am back in his arms with a kiss on my lips so fierce, so passionate - more so than any other kiss I had

Emilyâs dream-walking is far from over. Walking with Lucy was quite the ride, and now Andrew has some grand master plan he couldnât be more cryptic about. So while juggling school, her friends, and her former boyfriend, who is still pretty great, Emily tries to convince her psychiatrist and parents that the dreams are over thanks to a new medication (that she isnât taking). Emily begins dream-walking Isabella, a 19th-century girl crossing the Atlantic. But she gets so caught up in Isabellaâs world and the dreams that reality essentially fades away. Can she bring herself back? Can she be happy in her reality and comfortable in her own waking skin when she isnât along for the experience as someone else...in a memory that belongs to someone else? Find out in the second book of the In Her Dreams trilogy, Trapped in Her Dreams.
