DREAM STUDENT BOOK ONE by J.J. (James) DiBenedetto

J.J. (James) DiBenedetto was born in Yonkers, New York. He attended Case Western Reserve University, where as his classmates can attest, he was a complete nerd. Very little has changed since then.
He currently lives in Arlington, Virginia with his beautiful wife and their cat (who has thoroughly trained them both). When he's not writing, James works in the direct marketing field, enjoys the opera, photography and the New York Giants, among other interests.
The "Dreams" series is James' first published work.

What would you do if you could see other people’s dreams? If you could watch their hidden fantasies and uncover their deepest, darkest secrets…without them ever knowing?
Sara Barnes is about to find out. She thought that all she had to worry about was final exams, Christmas shopping and deciding whether she likes the cute freshman in the next dorm who’s got a crush on her.
But when she starts seeing dreams that aren’t hers, she learns more than she ever wanted to know about her friends, her classmates…and a strange, terrifying man whose dreams could get Sara killed.
“Dream Student” is the thrilling first installment of the Dreams series.

The Dream Series has five books. 4covert2overt A DAY IN THE SPOTLIGHT will host all five books in the next 2 months. The author will answer a few questions in each post, enjoy.

· What is your book about?

It’s about a young woman who can see into other people’s dreams…and all the trouble that talent causes for her. It’s also got plenty of romance, humor, suspense, mystery…and heart.

· What inspired you to write this particular story (and/or series)?

I was thinking of a reason why a character couldn’t go to the police and would take matters into their own hands to solve a crime – and the idea came to me. If you only saw the crime in your dream and you had no physical proof, you’d have to try and solve it yourself. That’s where the story began.

· Describe your writing in three words.

Immersive, sentimental, lighthearted
