Summary: Angela Thorne is torn apart by conflict, and that is never good for a writer. In order to escape, she has recently moved to Ocean Breeze, Florida. She is hoping for respite from a viper-tongued mother who has no concept of what it means to mind her own business. At forty years of age, Angela feels she has a right to her own life, a right her mother refuses to allow her. Finally, moving to a new condo in Ocean Breeze seems like it might actually work until her ex-husband, Brandon Burke, shows up in town. The source of his information is clear. Her mother’s insistent calls prove he was prodded and encouraged by her, and that is something Angela won’t put up with anymore.

When Luke MacLean meets Angela Thorne, all bets are off. According to his best friend, Alex Tremayne, Angela has and is currently being stalked and harassed by her ex-husband. That sets Luke’s teeth on edge, and it is something he won’t stand for, because to him, Angela is a precious commodity as a friend, and he hopes as something much more. Luke finds her sexy, funny, shy, very attractive, and as much as he is loathe admitting, someone with whom he would very much like to start a real relationship. After the fiasco with a fiancé who cheated on him and broke his heart, he has been skittish and uncertain where women are concerned, however, Angela is different. Somehow Luke senses she is special.

Now the question is will Angela and Luke be able to survive the rest of the trials their new life together will pose? Both of them being writers can pose a whole new set of problems, but that is not where the danger lies. With friends like Lisa and Alex, Adam and Mimi Stewart, and others, Angela and Luke won’t have much of a chance to fall or be torn apart, or will they?

Deb’s Review: Her Dream Lover by Kate Hofman is a true love story romance with plot twist that will keep you guessing. As I found out, just when you think things are back to the norm…bam!...there is another twist. Talk about exciting.
Mrs. Hofmankept me on my toes throughout this book. I found myself mesmerized by the ever changing characters. I caught myself asking, “Why wasn’t I invited to their brunches?” *grin* Angie is truly a sweet and brilliant heroine. She endured a lot in her life but always came back to herself. Feisty, never one to let a man bring her down. Now that she had what she wanted I was interested to see how she would handle it all. I have to say though that I would love to have seen her in something other than yellow. Sorry, Kate, I adore color. *g*

Luke’s character fascinated me on so many levels. His take charge zeal floored me a bit when you see him so gentle with Angie. I enjoyed his dark side; to know his character was pushed a few times made it more real to me as a reader.

As far as the layout of this book, it was very well done; interesting and charmingly fun. If you think that this book is just about two lovers, then you are in for a huge surprise. This book holds some shockers as well as colorful second string characters, and an endless line of passionate encounters that will keep you all tingly inside.
Even though Her Dark Lover seems long, stick with it, you will be rewarded in the end.

I know I was beaming when I finished it.

Kate Hofman, her amazing talent captures the true heart of romance…that “true love” factor…with each and every one of her books. Her Dream Lover is no exception.

Just remember, not everyone is who they seem. See if you can spot the surprises before they happen.
