GABRIEL
No one who had met Michaela Beauchamp could come away from it unscathed. She was a shrew–argumentative, crass, and the focus of all my wet dreams. I loved to hate her. We were at war and I was determined to win. I didn’t want her to just go away, I wanted to watch her fine ass as she went in that direction.
MICHAELA
Whoever thought Gabriel Langdon was more than a pretty face never met the douchecanoe.
He had very few redeeming qualities. He was dumb, frustrating, and constantly featuring in all my sexiest dreams. I wasn’t difficult to please. I was reasonable. All I asked was that the Universe bless me with the absence of this jackhole!
THEA
What is one to do when you summon a hitchhiker and they take up residence inside your head? No fifteen-year-old girl has a good answer. With my brother and neighbor circling one another in a strange mating dance, I barely know how to ask for help.
I mean really, all I did was a little spell to Invoke Helpful Spirits and Positive Energy Beings.
Note: THE DREAM KEEPERS is a mature Young Adult/New Adult book and for readers over the age of 18 due to sexual content and profanity. This is part one of a trilogy and ends on a CLIFFHANGER.
This book is rated M for Mischief.

Suddenly, I sit up in bed.
It’s mid-morning.
Looking around the unfamiliar room, it takes me a moment to realize I am at Michaela’s. I’d shared her bed last night instead of staying in the guest room after we spent hours watching horror movies. If I never see another exorcism or demon doll movie again, it will be too soon. Then we stayed up talking about things I’d never spoken about to anyone. When we got all talked out and were sleepy, we crashed head-to-toe on her bed. I had a light-weight Hello Kitty throw over my body that was covered in crimson and rust-colored stains.
“Hey, you’re up!” Michaela greets me happily.
I hate morning people.
She is sitting in a Papasan chair in front of her window with a book. Her head tilts to me and her eyebrows knit together. “Thea what the hell? Are you okay? You’re bleeding!”
Looking down I see my fingers on my left hand are torn apart. Blood is everywhere. I feel it on my face, itchy, and use the back of my hand to push my black hair back. Michaela flies across the room, grabbing my arms.
Alarm fills her eyes. She holds my hand in hers as she investigates it. “This is really bad. It looks like raw hamburger.”
“You can’t tell her about me.” My hitchhiker’s voice warns. It is no longer gender neutral. It is now a deep, calming voice that I’ve heard in my dream.
