Katie Hayes is a dreamer. Growing up, she dreamt of living on the beach in Malibu and finding the man of her dreams.

Her fantasy came true when she moved into a Malibu beach home with her best friend Sami. Life is fun and exciting until she meets a hot British boy named Ben. He is everything she dreamt of and more, except one thing she wants more and he denies her.

Can she get him to change and succumb to her sinful desires? Or will it push him away?



















Dream Escape (Dream Awake Series Book 2)
By: W.J. Carlson
Release Day: March 7th

Struggling and feeling rejection deep inside when Ben denies Katie the one thing she desires, she starts to second guess herself with a lot of “what ifs” as she tries to figure out what she really wants most. She wonders what would have been if things happened differently. Where would she be right now?
Katie dreams of getting everything she desires, but does it fully satisfy her the way Ben does?
Will her dream reveal the truth of her feelings? Or will she lose it all because she is selfish and letting her desires rule over her heart?
They say a dream is a wish your heart makes, but is Katie’s heart the one in charge, or have her natural urges and frustration taken control?
























Growing up in a small midwestern town in WI, it is next to nothing to dream about other places along with who to marry, how many kids to have and what to be when grown up.
So  many hopes and dreams has her imagination running wild. Her greatest dream came true when she became a wife, a mother of three and grandmother of two, with hopes of more grandchildren in the future.
She is a sucker for a good lover story. Loves to read and listen to others tell about their love stories.
Take the journey and follow along with her dreams and her Dream Awake series.

Genevieve Scholl, Corinne Michaels, AM Madden, Sylvia Day, Laurelin Paige, Sandee Love,   Stephenie Meyer, Denielle Steele and JR Ward.

3. What are some of your favorite books?
Considering from my list of authors above, it is too hard to pick because they all have a few    already out and published. I'm a fan of theirs and re-read their books a couple of times.
Sometimes, I just can't get enough of them and dying for more of their story. 

4. What did you decide to become an author?
Growing up, I loved writing poems about love and making up stories. I am a dreamer and     love hearing
and reading about romance and hear about other peoples happily ever after. During the final
Twilight series back in 2012. I had decided to try writing, so I did Twilight fanfiction. Then I
Driven Series and was hooked and heard about VIP pitcrew and joined in to learn more.
I met a few other authors online(Corinne, AM, Kristy) who helped me with questions and
went from their. My one book I wrote in 4months back on 2012. Sat on it. Then had a dream
to split the book(Hence inserting the 2nd book Dream Escape). I had a couple of friends
read it to see
if it was worth it and one told me not to do it even though she liked it, it needed work.
She wasn't very supported at all and left me hanging many times over the course of a year.
so I thought, I need to find someone else and did. So here I am! I have published 2 books in
a 3 book series. Last book out Aug. 8th. Read the books to find out why those dates are
significant to each book. There is a reason for everything.


5. What are you working on right now?
Right now I am working on a 6 book novella stand alone type series. Book 1 is almost done
and hoping to get them ready for release next year. I have one book done about crime and
Romance(no title yet-still deciding) to release end of year and I have 3 other books sitting on
back burner(1 done and other 2 are about a quarter of the way done).
