Tapestry for Love
Aislinn is an immortal dream spinner, tasked with weaving tapestries to define the dreams of mortals-but he has forgotten how to dream for himself. The drudgery of his life changes when he is asked to spin a companion into mortal Keith Wilcox's dreams. But Aislinn makes a critical mistake: he accidentally spins himself into Keith's tapestry, making the dream unobtainable. As his punishment Aislinn is sent to the mortal world, and he's blinded-sided when Keith reminds him of the lover torn from him by betrayal and murder. Now Aislinn's new life is about more than making Keith's dream possible; it's about rediscovering the meaning of dreaming and racing against time and death to recapture a love lost more than a millennium ago.

About the author
Rayne Auster
6 books54 followersRayne Auster always had a passion for writing. However, growing up, she didn’t have the patience to finish what she started. Most of her projects died before even seeing the light of day. While studying for a master's degree in computer science, she decided to post what she wrote online. That is when she discovered the joy of sharing the stories in her head. Unable to bear the thought of leaving her readers hanging, she finished her first piece of fiction. The satisfaction of actually completing a story quickly led to further inspiration, and she hasn't looked back since.

Tapestry for Love is the first book I’ve read authored by Rayne Auster, and it won’t be my last! I was immediately captivated by the two heroes in this book. Not only were they both interesting, intelligent and sexy, there were many twists and surprising turns in the plot itself that kept me up half the night reading it!
Aislinn is an immortal that lives on another realm. He’s been a dream spinner for thousands of years. As a dream spinner he weaves tapestries that define important aspects of mortal lives. He was once upbeat and his tapestries showed a lot of love and happiness woven on them, but once he lost his true love, Kian, he’s now more cynical and the tapestries he weaves are more solemn and darker.
Aislinn has had several promotions as a dream spinner. When he is asked by the king to weave a certain tapestry, he’s surprised he’s given such a request. But, Aislinn does his duty and soon gets caught up in the preparation and weaving of the tapestry itself. He doesn’t really pay attention to what he’s woven until he hangs it up in the Hallway of Dreams. To Aislinn’s horror, it’s a scene of him with a mortal man. Since immortals and mortals are forbidden to be woven together, Aislinn is arrested and soon given the punishment of living a mortal life, and straightening out the mess he made when he wove the tapestry.
Keith Wilcox has had reoccurring dreams for some time. Most of the dreams are war filled and violent, but lately he’s been dreaming of a beautiful man who he knows he’s in love with. Confused by these dreams, he seeks help from his twin sister, Sarah. When she tells him she believes that it’s could be a memory from a past life, he scoffs at the idea…after all, he’s just a boring teacher with an uneventful life, right? But, when he sees the beautiful man of his dreams on a school trip to a museum, Keith is not only drawn to the man, he senses that they have a deeper connection between them as well.
As Keith and Aislinn try to fight the connection they have together, but with fate and the fact that someone is suddenly out to kill Keith, soon make both of them realize they work better together than separate. The more the men are around each other, the more Keith remembers his past life with Aislinn. But, just as Keith is starting to really remember the love and devotion he had for Aislinn, he remembers a betrayal from those he loved the most as well.
Will Aislinn and Keith solve the mystery of Keith’s death? Will both men be able to put past hurts aside and take another chance on the love and happiness they deserve?
I really loved this book. I wouldn’t say that it’s a light read. I was glad that I was able to read the book uninterrupted so I could catch all of the clues and interesting twists as the love story of Aislinn and Keith unfold. I want to point out that even though there is a lot of information given in his book, I did not feel bogged down by it. It’s easy to follow along, and honestly Kian’s (Keith) killer took me by surprise.
This book is very well paced. It moves very smoothly, and the sexual tension and emotional buildup between Aislinn and Keith kept me glued to my computer screen. I found both Aislinn and Keith to be fascinating men, and I easily rallied behind their relationship. There were times I wanted Keith to not be so hard on Aislinn, but the gradual buildup of their relationship was part of the books charm.
I plan on reading more by this author. I really liked her style of writing and I appreciated the way both Aislinn and Keith evolve as the book progresses. I thought Tapestry For Love was extremely well written and I look forward to reading more books by her.

Intéressant et original, mais plutôt long à démarrer. J'ai eu du mal à accrocher à l'histoire et aux personnages qui prennent progressivement plus de profondeur au cœur du livre. il faut s'accrocher quoi, mais ça vaut le coup.
