Andrews’ Dare to Dream transports us to Luach, a beautiful island in the southwest of Ireland. The werewolves and other magical beings have been concealed from the rest of the world for millennia—until now. For three years, Adam, a Barr Alpha—the largest and strongest werewolf to lead a pack in over a thousand years and an immortal—has avoided leaving the island. When his adoptive father falls critically ill, Adam journeys to the United States with his wife, Kate, to reconnect with family for what could be their last meeting. However, tragedy strikes, thrusting Adam into the hands of shadowy operatives who are desperate to expose the existence of supernatural beings. Worse, a supermoon is fast approaching, its strong lunar energy threatening to reveal Adam’s grey fur and prominent canines. Disaster looms, and Adam’s very existence and the secrecy of the community in Luach and its sacred truths hang dangerously on the brink.

Dare to Dream by Andrews is ideal for readers who love magic, supernatural-driven stories, and intense romance. The characters are unique, layered, full of surprises, and a joy to discover. From Eithne, the formidable white magic witch head, to Darragh, the very first human in history to be cursed into a werewolf, each one is crafted to become a reader’s favorite. Then there’s the main characters' romance. Adam and Kate draw you into a love that asks you to feel. They’re more than just lovers; they’re best friends. The sizzle leaves you aching with longing. Sigh-worthy. There’s action, adventure, secrets, ancient curses, intense foot chases, deadly fights, love, and several edge-of-your-seat moments when Adam transforms into a massive grey wolf! Unforgettable!
