Could you turn back if you had all you ever wanted? Ellie has been trapped in a life she doesn't believe to be her own. From living in an apartment that carries her trauma, to an unsatisfying job and a toxic relationship, she has no control over her life. When her sister Mallory moves out, she is left on her own to cope with her fears. Everything changes when Ellie realizes she can control and manipulate dreams-not just her own, but those of the people around her, too. She learns to regain control over her life through her abilities, and it's all under the teaching eye of Aura, a beautiful inhabitant of the dreamworld. As Ellie slowly learns to take charge of her own life, her dreams prove to be the only safe space she has. But when strange memories begin invading her mind and an eerily familiar woman from a story Mallory made up years ago starts talking to her in riddles, Ellie realizes there is more to her safe haven than meets the eye. Her perfect world harbors a dark secret; and it's up to her to decide which path she wants to take and who to trust. This dark mystery published as Alice Brook's debut novel features a mostly female chast and thriller elements.

"Ellie Lawson's city life was treating her just fine until a sour turn of events knocks her out in one fell swoop. Dumped by her boyfriend and fired from her event planning job, she is left with no choice but to return to her parents' idyllic inn, nestled within a picturesque Honeycrisp orchard on Long Island. Anticipating a quiet hiatus in the attic apartment, she is instead met with Aiden, the stubborn, attractive son of the orchard owner who is currently occupying her planned refuge. Forced together by circumstance, they find themselves not only roommates but also coworkers, when they're put in charge by their parents of the orchard's vital Harvest Festival, a lifeline for both the struggling orchard and the inn. Amidst the enchanting disorder of small-town life, Ellie and Aiden grapple with their conflicting values, burgeoning feelings, and an electrifying tension. As Ellie discovers the unexpected charm of the life she left behind and Aiden learns there's much more to Ellie than he'd first assumed, one fact remains: the future of the orchard and the inn depends on their unlikely collaboration. Embark on a captivating journey of rediscovery, love, and the irreplaceable magic of small-town life"-- Provided by publisher.
