There is no such thing as happily ever after.Everything Charlotte Winston thought she knew has been thrown out the window. From the moment she opens her eyes, the world she remembered ceases to exist, and in its place is a post-apocalyptic realm filled with unimaginable dangers. And one very smoking hot guy who has an uncanny ability to make her blood sing, then boil in a blink of an eye.Dash … in a blink of an eye.
Dash Darhk is everything her parents would hate. He’s six feet and two inches of dark temptation and a killer smile, that’s surely left a stream of broken hearts in his wake. But her parents are nowhere to be found. Charlotte is alone in this new world. Destroyed by a toxic mist, the land isn’t the only thing altered, but the inhabitants as well.
As Charlotte begins the hunt for her family, gifts she’s never fathom awake inside her. And with the gifts come problems. Enormous ones. Charlotte is running out of options and places to hide. If she can’t figure out who to trust—and fast—she will lose more than her heart.
Fans of Hunger Games, The 100, and Divergent will fall in love with Slumber.

I just cannot remain excited about a book that is somebodies wet dream. The plot would have been fantastic without the constant lust and passionate kissing right in the middle of hiding from being captured. I certainly would not want my high school student reading this sewage. A book where trust and friendship are gained by respecting personal boundaries and learning to know each other better through the process of the adventure would be more wholesome and realistic reading.
Good read – I even read Entangled #2 in the series waiting for the third installment because you want to know what happens but you must ignore the whinny little girl side of the main character Charlotte.
I was not amused. The story line was boring, unimaginative, and overdone. I was hoping for a twist in a fairy tale and instead found something only vaguely resembling the same.
The concept was quite intriguing and a great take on somewhat common themes, but even for a YA novel the writing was quite juvenile.
I can’t wait to read the sequel to this book. I could not put it down
Be prepared for the setup to a sequel ..
Not what I was expecting. Good plot but too much bad language and sexual content for a ya novel.
I almost didn’t read this book because the main dudes name is Dash Darhk. Yes, you read that right. But it’s actually very engaging and fun, and I would recommend it to anyone else reading free books.
Main character is whiny and manipulative. Understandable for a teenager in a post-apocalyptic hellscape, but still so repellent I only made it a few chapters in.
So original great twist
This book was a page turner and did keep me interested in the story line enough that I finished the book. It wasnt phenomenal though and the romance seemed forced and jarring and generally out of context with the post-apocalyptic setting.
I am looking forward to the next one
Horrible writing and unbelievable (awkward and strange) dialogue. Got 11% through and hypothetically threw it across the room, as it was an ebook and couldn’t literally throw it.
Stay away – the five star ratings make no sense whatsoever.
Conversation was lacking, characters shallow, but good basis for a story and imaginative world.
