Reviews
What They’re Saying About
The Dreamwalker Series
“I loved this book! I was apprehensive at first, as this genre of fiction isn’t something I’m usually interested in. But then I started reading it and could barely put it down! When I wasn’t reading it, I was thinking about the characters and how I needed to get back to them. I love how the Gospel was woven throughout the book. I loved the author’s gift of making the words come to life in my mind as a movie. I could totally see this story as a film! I can’t wait to read the next one, and the next one...”
Sheyna Widener
Dark of Night is not a book to miss! The suspense, action, relatable characters, horrifying villains, and unapologetic gospel truths throughout make this a book you cannot put down!
Andy Carter's faith, grit, and moxie are stretched to new limits in the third episode of Carrie Cotten's Dreamwalker saga. When everything she believed to be true turns hazy and the things about herself and her life that were always the most solid are nothing more than shifting sand, Andy has to dig deeper, reach higher, and stretch further than ever before to stay true to the mission and her calling. When you think Carrie can't surprise you any more, Awaken brings more personal villains, more impossible situations, and more faith-growing conviction than you thought possible.
