We’re just a couple of days away from the official release of Perchance to Dream, and I’m so incredibly happy with the reception the book has gotten so far! The biggest shock of all was logging onto Amazon on Friday and seeing this: That’s right! Perchance to Dream was the #1 New Release in our category on Amazon!
