Description

Between the Highlander and Fever worlds lies a place beyond imagining.

This new edition of the novella contains more than 100 pages of bonus material, including:
• a deleted scene from Kiss of the Highlander
• a proposal for a never-published romance
• an alternate opening version of The Dark Highlander
• a sneak peek at art from the upcoming graphic novel Fever Moon
 
For the first time in hardcover, here is #1 New York Times bestselling author Karen Marie Moning’s novella Into the Dreaming, a tale of Highland fantasy, star-crossed lovers, and the timeless manipulation of the ancient, immortal Unseelie king. This is Moning at her romantic, funniest finest.
 
Free him from his ice-borne hell . . .
 
Stolen from his beloved home in the Highlands of Scotland, imprisoned in the Unseelie king’s dark, frosty kingdom, Aedan MacKinnon endured centuries of torture before becoming the icy, emotionless Vengeance, the dark king’s dispatcher of death and destruction in the mortal realm.
 
And in his century you both may dwell . . .
 
Aspiring romance novelist Jane Sillee has always believed that she was born in the wrong century, but she’s managed to make a decent enough life for herself—if only she could stop having those recurring dreams about a man too perfect to exist.
 
In the Dreaming you have loved him . . .
 
Haunted every night of her life by a devastatingly sexy Highlander who comes to her while she sleeps, Jane tries to write him out of her head and heart. As a child he protected her, as a woman he loves her.
 
Now in the Waking you must save him . . .
 
When an ancient tapestry bearing the likeness of her beloved Highlander arrives on her doorstep, Jane is whisked back in time to fifteenth-century Scotland, to the castle of Dun Haakon on the isle of Skye, where she is given one chance to save her dream lover . . . or lose him forever to the Unseelie king.
 
Caught in a deadly game between the light and dark courts of the Fae, Jane must find a way through the ice to the heart of her Highander. But will the love of one mortal woman be enough to defeat such ancient and ruthless immortal enemies?

    I should have read the reviews first. I have read a few of this series and loved them it Th is one was horrible. I may NEVER buy another. I feel totally ripped off. She should give a refund for this one. Hated it.

    I should have read the earlier reviews. Not only was this short story disappointing -- no character development at all -- the cost of the book is so wildly out of proportion to what it delivers that it feels almost like a scam. The look into Moning's attempted publications and discarded ideas is the kind of thing other authors provide for free on their websites or as bonus pages attached to a REAL book. Paying 9.99 for this is just a rip-off. Karen Marie you should be ashamed.

    I've read all the fever and highlander books. This one was definitely underwhelming. Highly recommend any from the other series though....

    I have never been disappointed with anything KMM has published until very recently. The graphic novel that recently came out turned out to be something I would dare to describe as being trashy and now this! Truly a story that should never have gone to print. No only that but at least half of the book's content was filled with writing that wasn't deemed worthy of even going to print. Don't waste your money. I am now hesitant to instantly buy everything by KMM.

    Biggest rip off ever. $9.99 for 120 pages of not even remotely good romance and a lot of useless (to me) author's notes. Biggest disappointment ever.

    Excellent and very explanatory. It brought new light to the Highlander series and such great commentaries from the author. It also makes you want to start the fever series immediately. It is a very intriguing series by a surprisingly human author.
