Of Dreams and Angels by Jared Morrison

Winner of the 2022 Readers' Favorite Book Awards - Paranormal Romance - GOLD Winner of the 2022 NYC Big Book Award - Paranormal Romance "Intelligent without pretension... Of Dreams and Angels is an enjoyable, easy-to-read romance that probes the weight and meaning of our relationships." - BookLife Reviews by Publisher's Weekly, Editor's Pick A man dreams through the eyes of a woman he's never met, setting out to find love that might be a figment of his imagination. Joe Riley has a successful, by-design life in the world of finance. He loves order, discipline, the tangible, the measurable. In pursuit of success he's spurned attachment, keeping romantic entanglements "on an island" while leaving his life and heart invulnerable. When he begins to dream of a woman half a world away he's never encountered, his notions of practicality and planning are called into question. In a search that variously brings him to the psychologist's office, a medium's table, and from the Rocky Mountains to the streets of London, England, Joe begins to fall for the woman of his dreams. In the process, he's beset by innumerable questions: Is he going mad? Might she actually exist? If so, why does he see through her eyes? Why is he party to visions that are either the greatest privacy invasion of all time, or a possible cosmic match in the making? In the quest for answers, Joe confronts the deeper questions that assail most of us who dare open our hearts: Will I be enough? Will they love me when it stops being easy? Will they stay? Will they sweep me up, just to watch me fall? A moving exploration of relinquishing fear and embracing the unknown, Of Dreams and Angels invites you to trust the dreams that brought you this far will bring you further. More praise for Of Dreams and Angels: "Morrison delivers a grounded, absorbing romantic tale... a refreshingly realistic narrative approach. An appealing love story that's both sentimental and down-to-earth." - Kirkus Reviews Award-Winning Finalist in the Romance: Paranormal category of the 2021 American Fiction Awards Award-Winning Finalist in the Fiction: Cross-Genre category of the 2021 Best Book Awards sponsored by American Book Fest
