This is a tough read, emotionally - especially during the first half where the husband abuses Amanda. The emotional current in the entire novel is strong, and it grabs the reader right away. The story itself is original and spellbinding - the hero is powerful and it is the most difficult book to put down that I can recall. It's almost like you are afraid to wait to find out what happens. There is something for many - suspense, romance and a bit of detective genre thrown in. Excellent effort put forth by the author.

This book stays with you after you have read it. You become one with the heroine. You feel what she feels. You feel the pain that is inflicted on the heroine. You get caught up in the struggle of the two lovers. It tugs at the heart and makes you feel warm inside. Very moving book. One of the most enjoyable I have read in a long time

This is one of my favorite books as well. In fact I've probably read it 4x or more. I never get tired of it. Amanda is in an abusive relationship with her self centered politician husband ** who is still having conversations with his dead mother**. Amanda's only salvation is finding the Dreamcatcher...I love how the book begins, I love how it ends...I didn't want it to end.

With an important abusive husband, she has no hope in her life until she finds the Dreamcatcher. It gives her a dream lover who later draws her into the past and he's able to help her become a strong woman returning her present. She's able to reach out to the hero and it all comes together. The author has blended time travel with romantic suspense to make this a great and original read.

I really love this story. I first started reading it about the time the first edition hit stores, but I lost my copy in a move. It was really difficult to find another copy after that, so when I finally found it online at amazon I was thrilled. I am Cherekee Indian and I live in Alabama so the story line is something to think about here. It has a bit of everything.

This book is one of my all time favorites. This copy was purchased to replace one I lent out that never got returned.

If you love modern day love stories with reflections from the past, you will adore this writing.

Another awesome book by Dinah is Jackson rules

Stuck in a lousy relationship, abused wife Amanda 'discovers' an old 'dreamcatcher' which is said to give one good dreams. But ever since she started using it, she has been timetraveling/dreaming (I'm never really sure which is it) of the maker of that dreamcatcher, Nokose. Each 'visit' helps to 'heal' Amanda, to give her hope, & eventually, to find her way. The only reason I didn't give it 5 stars is bec. the author should have had a better explanation of how Nokose & Seth are SUPPOSEDLY the same person--'cuz I sure didn't buy it!

This is one of the best books I have ever read! and I read a lot thats my job, I work for RR.Donnelleys& Sons one of the bigest printers in the wourld. this book grabes you and wont let go!

Dinah did and excellent job! I was immediately pulled into the book. My imagination absorbed every detail of Nokose and Amanda's struggle. I could almost feel Nokose's arms around ME ! A beautiful story !

How can anyone read this without feeling like their intelligence has been insulted? My friend loaned me this book, saying, "You've got to read this book." I was intrigued by the story idea, but after reading it, I felt stupider for having read it. The character Amanda is oppressed by her abusive senator husband and retreats into dreams about a dream lover named Seth. She meets a detective named Jefferson Dupree (who coincidentally looks like Seth), whom, she finds later, out of no cited incidences, has always been called Seth. The writing is simplistic, the story is drab; it is an uninteresting piece of blather.
