Michelle Baron followed her new husband to a new life in Sandy Cove, Oregon because of Steve’s new job as junior partner in a law firm. Being newly married, her husband having a new job, and college classes for Michelle in order to follow her dream to be a teacher, what more could one ask for? But Michelle starts having disturbing nightmares, which lead her to friends that are heavily into the occult and New Age mysticism to try to find the meaning of her dreams. But when a tragedy strikes her family, Michelle starts questioning what she really believes. Will Michelle find comfort from the Bible her grandfather so loves, or will she stay on her journey with the New Age friends? And what does Michelle’s new husband think all of these issues?

This is a really good read. Through Michelle’s character, Rosemary Hines takes readers on a very detailed journey into New Age beliefs. For me, reading about these beliefs was a little weird, but I understand that the author goes into such detail in order to show how disturbed Michelle was and how deep she was getting into the occult. Michelle’s grandfather is so precious and very wise. I just love him and loved all of the sound wisdom he gave everyone, and especially Michelle. I appreciate Ms. Hines writing about the issues with the occult, because it gave me insight on what they believe, as well as wisdom on how to answer any questions that come my way about the New Age system.

This book is very well written, and so very intriguing that I couldn’t put my Kindle down until I finished reading. I read Out of a Dream in one day! I want to encourage everyone to read this awesome book. I think you will appreciate Rosemary Hines' writing. And don’t forget to pick up books two and three in this series.
