Publisher Description

In 1960s Colorado, a shy bookseller must reconcile her quiet life with the tantalizing world of her dreams.

Denver, 1962: Kitty Miller once loved a doctor named Kevin, but it didn't work out the way she had hoped. Now she leads a quiet life, running a bookshop with her best friend and enjoying the freedom that comes with being single. Then the dreams begin.

Denver, 1963: Katharyn Andersson is married to Lars, the love of her life. They have beautiful children, an elegant home, and good friends. It's everything Kitty Miller once believed she wanted—but it only exists when she sleeps.

Kitty enjoys her nighttime forays into this dream world. But with each visit, the more irresistibly real Katharyn's life becomes. As the lines between dream and reality begin to blur, Kitty must figure out what is real and what is imagined.
