Liked It “Interesting characters and story, but it took me time to get into it. The reveal at the end was surprising while the involvement of the character wasn't. It was a very good book even if I found the ending a little too cute and cheesy.” see full review » see other reviews » |

Isabel Wright, herself a Level Five (the highest level of lucid dreaming) is the one in charge of interpreting their dreams. She is so intrigued by the Client Number Two that the man eventually starts appearing in her dreams. She dubs him Dream Man.
Enter Ellis Cutler, Client Number Two a.k.a. Dream Man. A Level Five lucid dreamer who uses his dreaming ability to solve crimes, and who‘s been having fantasies of his own regarding his dream analyst, Tango Dancer.
After so many books, with other authors I'd say "been there, done that, have the bookshelf to prove it", but that is never the case with Jayne Ann Krentz (or her alter ego Amanda Quick). Though the plots might be similar, there is always a different twist to the storyline to make it interesting. And believable.
Falling Awake is no exception. It's her usual cocktail of suspense, action, and romance that will keep you at the edge of your seat and turning page after page, because you have to know just what happens next. Though the "technical" descriptions did slow the pace down.
What I like most about her contemporaries is the fact she never gives a detailed visual description of the male lead, leaving the better part to the reader's imagination.
P.S. In this case, the dark sunglasses Ellis Cutler can't seem to take off just add to the mystery, intrigue, and his appeal.”
“Isabel Wright is a dream interpreter. She has been pining for the man of her dreams. A client that she has been interpreting but never seen or met..Client Number 2. Everything goes south when her boss drops dead at his desk and the son takes over and fires her. Unbeknownest to her, Client Number 2 has also been pining for her. He calls her Tango Lady and has moved to California to find her. There is murder, mystery, romance and everything else in this story. Love Quick's books”
