Two broken hearts find love and healing in each other in this sexy contemporary romance spin-off from the New York Times bestselling author of the Rock Chick and Dream Man series.
Evan “Evie” Gardiner has spent her whole life being the responsible one in her family, but enough is enough. It’s time to pursue her own dreams. Evie’s finally going to finish that engineering degree she’s been working toward. But first she needs to come up with the money to pay for tuition. Working as a dancer at Smithie’s club seems like the perfect solution to her problems . . . until her family lands in yet another scrape and comes to Evie for help. Only, this time, her family’s recklessness is risking more than her dreams-it’s endangering her life.
Daniel “Mag” Magnusson knows a thing or two about desperation and disappointment, but no one notices that his good looks and quick wit hide the painful memories that haunt him. When Evie’s family puts her in danger, Mag insists on offering Evie his protection. He has the skills to guard Evie’s life, but as they grow closer, Mag realizes he’ll need to come face-to-face with his demons to prove himself as the man who will protect her heart.

Although romance is her genre, the prevailing themes running through all of Kristen’s novels are friendship, family and a strong sisterhood. To this end, and as a way to thank her readers for their support, Kristen has created the Rock Chick Nation, a series of programs that are designed to give back to her readers and promote a strong female community.
The mission of the Rock Chick Nation is to live your best life, be true to your true self, recognize your beauty, and last but definitely not least, take your sister’s back whether they’re at your side as friends and family or if they’re thousands of miles away and you don’t even know who they are. The programs of the RC Nation include Rock Chick Rendezvous, weekends Kristen organizes full of parties and get-togethers to bring the sisterhood together, Rock Chick Recharges, evenings Kristen arranges for women who have been nominated to receive a special night, and Rock Chick Rewards, an ongoing program that raises funds for nonprofit women’s organizations Kristen’s readers nominate. Kristen’s Rock Chick Rewards have donated over $125,000 to charity and this number continues to rise.

Evie's life is somewhat of a disaster, her family has once again found a way to drag her into their mess, and they expect her to help them find a way out of it. In addition to their ongoing drama she has decided that she wants a degree in engineering, which she has the smarts for, but lacks the funds for college. But she has a plan, she can get a job at Smithie's Club, and shake what the Good Lord gave her to earn the money she needs for school. Only she has one little problem... her dancing skills aren't the best!
Little does she know that isn't going to be her only problem, her brother has brought danger to her doorstep, and now the men he wronged are hunting for her and what is owed to them! Good thing she has just met a hunky alpha male that is determined to save the day... and her life!
Between the pages of Dream Maker you will meet a slightly nerdy and very beautiful woman named Evie that is determined to make her dreams come true, and the hunky alpha that is dedicated to keep her safe while doing it. Evie and Danny are about opposite as two people could be, but it's Danny innate need to be a protector that brings them together. From the moment these two unite you can feel a shift amongst the pages, their instant attraction to one another is evident the moment she opens her door, but with each page that follows a powerful bond takes hold. One that helps heal all their old wounds and ultimately helps them finds the courage to trust and open up to one another... and fall head over heels too! Their relationship has a nice progression to it, one with a very natural feel. I loved my time with these two, they brought heat and humor to the pages, and their beautiful love story left my heart so happy. What a fun introduction to a new series, I cannot wait to make a return visit and see who graces the pages of the next installment! Highly recommend this one, it's pages are riddled with everything necessary for a perfect literary escape!
