Jackson Bishop doesn't know what's real.
He had a birthday. He met a man. He buried his mother. He got lost in the woods, and then...
Jackson woke up.
It's his birthday again and his mother is alive, but the man from his dream is selling him a coffee and he doesn't know Jackson's name. Fragments of his memories become tangible threads of his reality and, as the days and nights unravel, Jackson finds himself falling for a stranger he feels like he's known his whole life.
Jackson needs to uncover the truth before he loses his mind, but when he pieces everything together, will he come out with a soul mate by his side or will he wake up and discover none of it was real? That everything ended much as it had started.
As a dream.

My Rating - 4.5 Stars!
Kate Hawthorn's Dreams is a wonderful tale of soulmates. If you're looking for an extremely unique read, look no further.
This is a riveting tale, where Jackson questions everything, as his dreams and reality start to mix. Honestly, you will be guessing what's actually going on throughout.
I am impressed with the way everything is developed and weaved together. The scenes are choppy and fragmented, making for a strange read at times, but it all makes sense in the end.
Jackson and Taylor are definitely sweet together. Their bond is like nothing I've ever read before. And it's fun watching Jackson try to figure out what's going on.
One of my favorite things is the theme of "Time is nothing" spread throughout. You'll know what I mean when you read it.
The writing is well done, with a compelling storyline and an interesting romance. The scenes with Jackson's mother are a tough read, as it hits too close to home. The author definitely tackles her Alzheimer's with knowledge and care. And omg, the big reveal with her had me in tears. What a beautiful and heart-wrenching moment.
I have never read a book like Dreams before. This Kate Hawthorne tale isn't my usual type of read. But this story is beautifully done and will keep you intrigued throughout.
