Today, I'm reviewing Dreams of the Past by Laura Hunsaker.

Can dreams of the future erase her nightmares of the past? She's looking for a fresh start, but he’s rented the same beach cottage. One bed, two people? Whatever will they do?

This was a sweetheart of a story. Jenny has driven away from her home in California and hopes to be leaving behind her painful past. Destination? Seaglass Cottage, the beachhouse her godmother owns at Last Chance Beach. 

She's looking for peace and sleep uninterrupted by nightmares. With her past a disaster, she's hoping she can figure out what she wants of the future.

Also heading for Sea Glass Cottage is Navy S.E.A.L. Scott Gordon. He's at a crossroads in his life too and needs some peace and quiet to figure out his next move now that he can no longer be a S.E.A.L.

Although Jenny is fleeing from emotional trauma, humor in the beginning softens the mood and adds just the right note to set up a "falling in love" story—if not at first sight, definitely after a couple of days in each other's presence.

Jenny finds the strength she needs from alpha male Scott, a hero who is sensitive to Jenny's needs. Together, they figure out a future neither expected.
