I was intrigued by the description of this book and when I began reading it I was drawn in immediately. The book starts quickly with Stella and her professor being wounded in a bungled convenience store robbery - Stella getting a bullet lodged in her brain and falling into a coma. Her professor has a bullet in his leg, and is hospitalized also. When he realizes Stella has no real family to be with her and care for her, he steps in to fill the void becoming very attached and devoted to her. He is hoping for a real relationship, equivalent to the one he has invented to placate the hospital staff and her step father, once she awakens. Its action packed and exciting plot got and kept kept my attention. It is a complex and captivating tale of the boring hum drum life in a less than average body, being someone completely forgettable that Stella faces in her real life versus her new life where she has inhabited a beautiful perfect body and has become wife of the gorgeous chief man in Jarmo - a paradise of thousands of years ago. Is she really in Jarmo or is it just a dream? She doesn't want to ever leave her fantasy - if it is indeed one - but she may have no choice.The down side of the book was that it didn't really end and left me wanting more - some conclusion to Stella's journey. I look forward to future tales by this author.I was given a copy of this book for free in exchange for an honest review.
