Reverie is a Christian fiction book intended to explore how single Christians deal with attraction, desire, and lustful thoughts within a relationship. It’s a heavy topic and one that’s not often discussed in Christian circles. Drew Taylor has taken the topic and wrapped it in a storyline that will entertain while making you think. The story within a story will have you second guessing and flipping back and forth to see what was real and what was imagined. And it has a different twist on amnesia than I’ve read before, so it kept me turning pages to see what was next. Drew has a way of making hard topics fun and she has done it again here.

While faith isn’t the central focus, it’s beautifully woven into the characters’ lives in a natural, authentic way. ...
