Anna never expected a dream lover. In fact, spending her days as a librarian, she knows such a thing is an impossibility. Until he comes to her. Hard, strong and powerful, he seeps into her dreams, invading her sleep. Each night she waits for him, longing to see his face. Their carnal dream encounters leave her breathless.

The culmination of her fantasy leads Anna to believe she's going mad…until Onyx allows her to see his face. The embodiment of sex and virility, Onyx is an orphan from a lost city, a time traveler who searches with his people to find another place to call home. As the king of a fabled civilization, he knows his time with Anna is short. He never intended to fall in love with her.

Traversing the bounds of time, these two lovers will find a way to be together with a little help from the fates.
