Dark Stranger: The Dream

New and Lengthened 2017 Edition

By: I. T. Lucas

Narrated by: Charles Lawrence

Syssi's paranormal foresight lands her a job at Dr. Amanda Dokani's neuroscience lab, but it fails to predict the thrilling yet terrifying turn her life will take. Syssi has no clue that her boss is an immortal who'll drag her into a secret, millennia-old battle over humanity's future. Nor does she realize that the professor's imposing brother is the mysterious stranger who's been starring in her dreams.

Since the dawn of human civilization, two warring factions of near-immortals - the descendants of the gods of old - have been secretly shaping its destiny. Leading the clandestine battle from his luxurious L.A. high-rise, Kian is surrounded by his clan, yet alone. Descending from a single goddess, clan members are forbidden to each other. And as the only other immortals are their hated enemies, Kian and his kin have been long resigned to a lonely existence of fleeting trysts with human partners. That is, until his sister makes a game-changing discovery - a mortal seeress who she believes is a dormant carrier of their genes. Ever the realist, Kian is skeptical and refuses Amanda's plea to attempt Syssi's activation. But when his enemies learn of the Dormant's existence, he's forced to rush her to the safety of his keep. Inexorably drawn to Syssi, Kian wrestles with his conscience as he is tempted to explore her budding interest in the darker shades of sensuality.

At 82,000 words, Dark Stranger: The Dream is a full-length novel but it is not a standalone. Kian and Syssi's story is a three-book series. In book four, Dark Enemy Taken, a new couple takes the center stage. Follow the cast of intriguing characters as they fall in love while fighting for the survival of their family, and get swept away into the world of The Children of the Gods.

Computer reader or what

Hard to get into this story because the narrator was terrible . Many times he sounded like a computer generated narrative. Story was a bit weak . Over all if you don’t have anything better to read , maybe ?

Recommended

A compelling dark fantasy story made all the better by the enchanting narrator. Truly a joy to listen to.

Way to Wishy Washy

plot was fine but the author started running out of steam with the 2 main characters. the "I can't but I can. I shouldn't but I should" got really old towards the end of the book.

Enthralling....

so many questions left me wanting more...more of all of the characters. They all have so much potential. as I was listening my mind was playing out possible senarios... so going on to the next installment...

Interesting

A new race of almost humans with ancient ways. Ancient enemies fighting to the death around the unsuspecting humans. Enter action between races is limited situations. a different twist to forbidden love.
