Martin Hawley, wealthy, sexy San Francisco aristocrat wants Nita to help him find his kidnapped daughter. He’s well aware of Nita’s sensual dreams — he’s having them, too.

Nita is a long-standing reporter who has always been able to rely on her instincts. But lately she’s been having extremely intense dreams – hot flashes or daydreams, maybe even erotic nightmares. When Nita is called out of the blue by Martin Hawley she recognizes his voice instantly as her mysterious dream-lover. Only this isn’t a dream anymore, and Martin is looking into some very shady characters and Nita’s instincts for news is telling her that there’s far more to this story than she realized at first.

Told in the first person perspective I really enjoyed this short story. It felt a little to me like one of those “confessions of a …” stories but at a really fast pace. Nita’s fantasies are interspersed through the story and I was surprised that I actually enjoyed how craftily they were woven into the fabric of the story – to the point where at times I had difficulty working out what was dream (or fantasy) and what was reality. To my mind, Ms. Douglas is to be commended on some exemplary writing in that respect.

While not a paranormal tale in the traditional sense – there are no witches or shapeshifters here – there definitely felt to me a sense of Otherness that didn’t have a clear, logical explanation. The lines between which parts were real and which parts were fantasy remain blurred, and there isn’t a complete explanation to some of what occurs in the final scenes of the story. While I, personally, enjoyed this aspect to the story, feeling like it gave the whole tale an almost ghostly kind of feel, I do wonder if some readers might not enjoy the possibility that some questions remain not clearly answered.

Sexy and hot, I thought this was a good short story. With some paranormal-ish elements I feel that it’s a good read for a foggy night when the air is crisp and cool and just a little spooky. With a cracking pace, an interesting plot and some raunchy characters this ticks a lot of good boxes to my mind.
