 NOW LIVE! 

A bride. A groom. A deadly curse. 

Forced to attend her brother’s wedding, Saige Wolvercraft returns to her ancestral home, the house where her mother took her own life. Wolvercraft Manor is haunted. Or at least it is for Saige. The rest of her family thinks she’s nuts—a diagnosed handful. Worse, her ex-boyfriend and successful rock star, Jasper Young, is attending the wedding, and he’s the only one who believes her. 

When Saige learns that a string of family deaths has occurred in the house over the last two centuries, she realises the supernatural is involved with the manor’s dark history. Not only does her bedroom window opens mysteriously on its own, but cries echo from the attic, and a seance goes disastrously wrong.  

After a storm moves in, cutting off the family’s contact with the outside world, the bride starts behaving strangely. It’s time for Saige to investigate. The problem is she needs Jasper’s help. 

As Saige and Jasper are drawn closer together and uncover more of the house’s secrets, they learn that something evil walks Wolvercraft’s halls… and it’s coming for all of them.

What an interesting set of short stories Future Dreams and Nightmares has. Each one will keep you guessing and a whole lot to think about. There is plenty of suspense and mystery to keep them interesting and very intriguing. Each will blow your mind in many different ways. Each is a blast to read.



MEMORIES

Imagine walking into a clinic expecting one thing but walking out with something entirely different. Would the results be good or bad? Payback is a … Great story with a twist.


MIND TRAP

A very interesting story with several twists. The title is very fitting. Evil little man. But is he the only one?


A MIND FULL OF MEMORIES

A JUMP TOO FAR

The suspense kept me anxiously awaiting wanting to know what exactly was too far.


WE SERVICE ALL

The title is very fitting but leaves you with a lot to think about. Wondering what lies between the pages. If you could have your heart's desire should you even if you know it may not be real? Would it be harmful or helpful?


CLOSE ENCOUNTERS OF THE FOURTH KIND

This one is full of twists that will keep you hanging on to every word waiting for the big climax. How far should you go to be nice to someone? How far should you go to show someone that you mean them no harm?

Makes you wonder if you can really and truly believe anything you have been told or taught. If any of it is real or not.
