I like the potrayal of insecure female character in this book. I rarely see that in books so I'm glad that the author made this as the main issue of Abby
Colton doesn't seems like a real character, there's no depth in him. I get that the story is mainly about Abby and it is a novella but I wish we could have know more about Colton's life before Abby.
And their relationship moves forward too fast and again I know it's because this is a shorter story but still haha.
P/s: Personally I could still accept if someone who has a crush on someone else while they are in a relationship, as long as they don't act on those feelings but somehow it felt wrong when Abby constantly mentions how she have always like and if I'm not mistaken fantasizes about Colton even when she's with Kevin. It felt more than just a silly crush. I mean seriously? All those years of relationship with Kevin you've had been thinking about one other particular guy?!

This was my first 1001 Dark Nights, and I really enjoyed the novella set in one of JLA's worlds.
. I will definitely read more.

I Absolutely loved this book! It was sweet, steamy, sexy, and it has more than enough suspense! Everyone who actually knows me, knows that I love all of JLA’s books! My favorite series of JLA is this series and jennifer makes me fall in love with all the guys from this series over and over again!
This book is about Abby who witnessed a crime and the criminals knows who she is! She went to the police to report the crime and in walker Colton Anders! For those who doesn’t know who Colton is; she is Reece’s brother from Fall With Me. Abby and Colton knew each other since high school. Abby always had a crush on him even when she was with Kevin. Colton noticed Abby in high school but he was never a cheater but he always admired her! When Abby walked into his life again he was very happy about it, though he wasn’t happy how she came into his life again but she still came into his life that way.
I want myself a Colton Anders because he made me swoon with all that sweet words and the alpha male protectiveness! I just feel that this book was so short :-(! I know it’s a novella but I always want more of JLA book’s never any her books to end!I loved Abby because I can relate to her, I think a lot of book nerds can relate to her! I really like how much Abby fangirled over book and authors in this book! I would recommend this book to everyone! This book deserves more than a 5+ star rating! Jennifer you are a queen at writing masterpieces! I also loved that small little excerpt at the end of the book with Nick and Steph! Now I really want to read the next book in this series!!!

Esta ocasión lo disfruté un poquito más, en comparación con los otros de la serie es un poco más maduro entre comillas, por que a sus veintiocho años, Abby no es que tenga demasiado experiencia, y Colton acaba de terminar un compromiso bastante largo, hace casi nada.
Ellos lo llaman un amor de segundas oportunidades, pero en parte es un instalove, y saber que ambos sentían atracción por el otro siendo adolescentes, pero fueron respetuosos y nunca sucedió nada, le pone desde mi punto de vista un poco más de tensión al asunto.
Y a todo esto le añadimos el toque policial y la mafia y todo lo que rodea a la situación que llevó a su reencuentro, hace que está historia te deje con ganas de más.

Review originally posted at Ramblings From This Chick
Dream of You is a standalone novella in Jennifer L. Armentrout's (J. Lynn) Wait for You series. This novella features Reece's brother Colton Anders. Colton and Abby Erickson went to high school together, but haven't seen each other in years. But when Abby witnesses a horrible crime, she finds herself face to face with her Colton who she always had a crush on. But can Colton keep her safe from danger?
I really liked Abby and Colton. Colton was honest and sweet, and I loved him right from the start. He was great with Abby, and I liked that he had always had a thing for her. She never knew how he felt, and it was nice to see a guy be interested in someone that wasn't always perfect and put together. Abby had experienced a lot of loss, and I felt bad for her. She also had issues with self esteem, and I thought that Colton was exactly what she needed. These two had a lot of chemistry and I really enjoyed them together.
My biggest complaint with this book is length. I wish that we had been given more of these two because it seemed a bit rushed to me. There were several things that I felt could have been expanded, and I wish that they hadn't been so quickly dealt with. Though it was easy to see Abby and Colton had a connection and chemistry, I would have liked to have seen their relationship really develop. It all happened pretty fast and I felt like we missed out on seeing a lot of it happen. I enjoyed their story though, and I think it was a good addition to this series. I will definitely read more from JLA in the future, and I hope that we might get to see more of these two as the series continues.

Love at first murder witness. Or something like that.
Dream of You was pretty cute. In it, you will meet Colton and Abby. Colton is a detective working on a murder investigation. Then there's Abby, who witnessed the entire thine. Low and behold, these two went to school together and had crushes on one another.
Small world, right?
Things couldn't work out with them back in school but now, they are both free, single and ready to mingle. All bets are off now and they can finally go at it like wild animals. Turns out, a lot of really random ass drama happens in this book. At one point I was a little confused and just went with the flow.
In the end, I liked the book but wanted more - like Colton's POV. Lots of it.

it was a nice enough novella. can’t say it was crucial to the plot line or anything bc colton is the secondary character of secondary brother so whatever.
