What's the story?
Dr. Sara Alderson isn’t used to her patients dying for no
reason. When a young boy succumbs to a mysterious illness that defies all her
efforts to treat it, she refuses to accept defeat.
After two months of questions, Sara has attracted the attention
of powerful people who don’t want their secrets uncovered, and will go to any
lengths to make sure they stay hidden.
Now, time is running out for Sara to unravel the mystery before
anyone else falls victim to the illness. And before her career, her family and
her freedom are taken from her by enemies she doesn’t even know she has.

Want to know more? Here's an excerpt!
It’s one in the morning, and the last guests have gone. Other
than the cleaning crew, Brian and I are the only ones left in the ballroom. I
know we need to leave, but I can’t bear the thought of standing up and trying
to walk out of the room, down to the garage and then to the car. I think my
feet might literally fall off.
“You’re going to have to carry me out of here,” I tell Brian,
and he gives me a wicked grin in return.
“I was planning on it,” he says, and he stands, takes a deep
breath, and lifts me right out of my seat. I yelp and throw my arms around his
neck as he carries me out of the room and over to the elevator, barely showing
any strain at all. He has to put me down once we get to the elevator, though. “I
need a free hand,” he says, hitting the “up” button. But the garage is—oh. I
should have known.
“You booked a room.” He nods. “And you told my parents we
wouldn’t be home tonight.” Another nod. It’s all part of the fantasy, I guess. He’s
been imagining that he’s James Bond all night, and after a glitzy evening at the
casino, James Bond doesn’t hop into the minivan so he can get home, walk the
dog and collapse into bed. No way. He takes his conquest for the evening up to
the five-star hotel room, where the champagne is already waiting. On ice, no
doubt.
The bell dings, he ushers me into the empty elevator, and as the
door closes, I feel my fatigue suddenly, instantly, drain away, and I’m all
over him. I may not be a fan of those movies, but I know how they go, and it’s
not as though I need much of an excuse to throw myself at my husband. By the
time the door opens onto the third floor, I’m panting and extricating my hands
from his tuxedo jacket. “You woke up in a hurry,” he says, panting himself,
pulling his hand off the zipper of my dress, which is already halfway down my
back.
“Well, I know what you were thinking, and I also know that no
girl can resist James Bond, right?” By way of an answer, he leads me down the
hall, opens the door to our room, picks me up again and deposits me on the bed.
In seconds, he’s finished the job of zipping me right out of my dress, and his
tuxedo is in an undignified mess somewhere on the floor. After that—there’s no
more thought, just feeling, just his hands and his lips and his—his everything.

What if you could see
everyone else’s dreams?
Sara Barnes has just
discovered that she can. And this gift—or curse—will lead her on an
extraordinary journey.
Follow Sara as her
newfound ability leads her into adventures she never imagined. She will hunt
down a serial killer, investigate a plot to murder one of her teachers, unravel
a conspiracy between a mobster and a corrupt politician and face off against
her nemesis: a woman who shares her talent, but uses it to destroy lives rather
than save them. And Sara will have to manage all that while finishing college,
becoming a doctor and falling in love, too.
Here are the first
five books of the Dream Series, along with bonus material created especially
for this collection. Included in this set are Dream
Student, Dream Doctor, Dream Child, Dream Family and Waking Dream. In addition, you’ll find the short story Betty & Howard’s Excellent Adventure starring Sara’s
parents. But most of all, when you open this box of dreams, you’ll find
romance, suspense, humor and plenty of heart…

So
who's the author?
Well, technically,
that's a picture of his cat, Danny. Danny is much more photogenic than J.J. is.
But J.J. (James, really) is a pretty nice guy. He's a native New Yorker,
although he's lived in the Washington, DC area for the last twenty years. He loves
the opera, reading, photography, science fiction, fondue, travel and the New
York Giants. Oh, and of course Danny, and also of course his lovely and
talented wife.
Where
can I learn more about him?
At his website, on Facebook, on Twitter and at his Amazon Author Page.
