Why read it?

2 authors picked Parallel as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

A dream-activated time travel story. Now that's one I couldn't resist and fortunately, I didn't.

The reader follows the character, Quinn, on a journey as her dreams bring a man that stirs her like no other. Problem? Nick enters her real world, too. They have a history. Complications? Oh, he's dreaming about her, too.

Can they figure out a way to stay connected and understand what's happening? Let’s hope.

Warning: it's a series, but after reading the first book, you'll be glad there's more from this talented author. 

If you believe in soulmates who are compelled to find each other in every reality, this is the book for you.

Though it kicks off a series, this first installment had me enthralled and hanging on every page.

When the reason this couple’s unexplainable but undeniable magnetic pull to each other is finally revealed, you can help but root for them to finally figure it out.

Be prepared to let the laundry and housework go undone. You’re going to want to see this one through to the end.
