I was just fired from my job, and the house my ex-boyfriend owns is falling down around me. There’s nothing tying me to this town, so I decide to get a fresh start.
Newport is adorable. The kind of small, friendly town where people smile at you on purpose. Even better, the antique store that hires me comes with a shockingly affordable apartment. It feels like I’ve finally stumbled into a version of life that isn’t trying to crush me.
And then the dreams start.
These aren’t normal dreams. Not stress dreams. Not even “oh no, I wore underwear to homeroom” dreams. No, these are sexy dreams. Ridiculously sexy dreams.
One night I dream my sheets are touching me in ways my ex could never imagine. And honestly? Good for me.
Except, I might not be dreaming.
Because my bedding seems very…involved. And skilled. And real. Which is ridiculous. Impossible, even. A bedding set can’t be the best lover I’ve ever had.
Bedding the Bedding. Sentient Object Romance. I’ve read sentient romances before, make sure before you read this short story that you are are fully aware of what you’re getting into. Literally this is an FMC who has sexy time with her bedding.
Even though it doesn’t have much progression to the story I enjoyed the additional tidbit of Nikki’s allergy to apples and the fun way Anya, the waitress at the cute diner/coffeeshop, says she will remember that tidbit because Nikki reminds her of Snow White. 🍎
For being such a quick read there is a lot of story in this read, we meet some great characters including Gertie, a sweet, and sometimes foul mouthed grandmother-ish character who becomes Nikki’s landlord and boss, we also get Eva, a fun new bestie then there is Nick the douchey ex.
Nikki leaves her past behind to find something better, she finds herself in a small town with a new job and apartment… and of course some special bedding that is silky and soft and knows how to make her feel ah-mazing.
