About this ebook
Roi, an arctic shifter who calls North Pole City home, has watched four of his friends find their fated mates in the human world. He wants nothing more than to join them...to find the one woman on the planet meant for him, so that they can start their life together.
When the father of one of the fated mate’s falls ill before Christmas Eve, Santa Claus is unable to send her home to visit because his magic isn’t powerful enough. When he calls his old friend Sandman for help, Sandman’s daughter comes instead. Dreama, who is as powerful as her father, agrees to take the fated mate and her shifter home. When Santa sends Roi along as a guard, sparks fly between Dreama and him.
Dreama’s never met anyone like Roi, the sexy shifter who can change into four different animals. She wants to spend the rest of her life with him, but can a woman who walks in other people’s dreams get her own happily ever after? Or will an ancient law prevent her from staying in NPC? Only Santa knows if her dream will come true.

Chapter 1
Dreama settled on a thick tree branch in an old oak and looked into the window of the second-story home. A pale blue light in the room, which came courtesy of a cute nightlight shaped like a fish, illuminated the interior. The wind blew, rustling her long hair, and making her wish she’d remembered to grab a hair tie before she headed out for work.
The tree swayed slightly, and the branch creaked as her father joined her. A bit of sweet-dreams-sand fluffed up from his clothes.
Hey, Dad,
she said, nudging him with her elbow and smiling. What are you doing in Iowa?
He held out his hand, and she laughed as she saw a package of Tim Tams, her favorite Aussie treat.
I take it you were in Australia?
she asked as she opened the package and handed him one of the cookies.
Of course.
You know you can buy these in the states now? The Internet had changed commerce dramatically.
"They’re better when they’re actually from Australia."
You don’t say.
Are you worried about this house for some reason?
A little. His happy dreams keep turning into nightmares. I used stronger sand, but I wanted to make sure it worked before I left.
He hummed, turned his attention to the room, and gazed through the window. She knew he was using his power to see the dreams of the little boy. When she’d shown up earlier, the sweet-dream-sand had sent him off to sleep immediately, but the dreams disappeared in the wake of a frightening image of a scary clown. The second dose of sand hadn’t worked long, either, which was why she’d increased the dose. He’d been asleep for a half hour now, which she knew was long enough to know that he’d sleep soundly, and peacefully, through the night.
Her father shook his head. Ugh, clowns.
I know, right? Must have watched a scary movie.
Night’s waning, sweetie,
he said, moving off the branch and hovering in the air. Shimmering sand cascaded from him, catching on the breeze and twisting away in curlicues.
I know.
She hopped off the branch. Her power allowed her to float alongside her father, unseen by the humans and their children. I was just leaving, I promise, boss.
He chuckled. You know I have utter faith in you to do your job well.
I know.
Stop by for dinner tomorrow?
You bet.
He blew her a kiss and disappeared in a swirl of golden sand, leaving her hovering just outside the window of the little boy. She took one last look at his dreams, satisfied he was sleeping well, and then headed off to her next assignment.
Dream walking was something she was born to do. As the only daughter of Sandman, she’d grown up following him at work and stepping into humans’ dreams. She and her father mostly walked in the dreams of children, promoting sweet and restful sleep. They could walk in adults’ dreams, too, but adult humans could be tricky. If they had zero belief in magic, then the sand didn’t affect them.
Dreama was a supernatural being, able to transport at will to anywhere on the planet. Well, almost anywhere. She couldn’t go to North Pole City, where Santa, Mrs. Claus, elves, and shifters lived and worked. NPC was closed to any supernatural creatures except
