Pleasures of the Night (Dream Guardians #1)
by Sylvia Day (Goodreads Author)
Paperback, 304 pages
Published April 24th 2007 by Avon Red
Goodreads synopsis: He comes to her in the twilight between sleep and consciousness to fulfill her secret desires. Lyssa Bates has never experienced such ecstasy. Captain Aidan Cross is on a mission but he has finally met his mate in Lyssa and this throws him off course. He is a guardian and she is a dreamer, and the passion that consumes them both, body and soul, could have dire consequences in a world of dreams . . . and in the waking one as well.
I actually liked the storyline about the Dreamers, The Elite Guardians, The Elders and the Key much more than I did the erotica part. I would read a follow up book if it had just that in it. Great read otherwise. Aiden is definitely book boyfriend material.
Aidan is a dream Guardian. He battles the Nightmares. And he and other Guardians battle these nightmares to keep them out of the real world. But it is a trial. Adian usually takes the desires of the dreamer and makes them real. He can make himself seem like whomever the dreamer desires. but Lyssa is different. She can see the real him. No one has ever been able to do that before.
Aidan lives in the empty space in the inbetween. They call it Twilight. And the Elders have always told them to search for the Key and to destroy it because the Key would destroy them if it was ever revealed. The Elders have ulterior motives where the Key is concerned. The Key would make it possible for Guardians to cross over into the real world at will. Now they are left in the Twilight to be of assistance to the Dreamers.
I thought there was way too much hanky panky in this novel and not enough of this reality about the Dreamer/Guardian and the Elders. That part was quit inventive and imaginative. Great stuff. Wanted to see more. Probably will no read a second book.
3.5 stars.
