From New York Times Bestselling Author Kristen Proby comes Dream With Me, an all-new addition to the series that has sold more thana million copies to date, her belovedWith Me In Seattle Series!Kane O’Callaghan knows what it is to have his work shown all over the world. His pieces are on display in palaces and museums, including the O’Callaghan Museum of Glass just outside of his beloved hometown … his beloved hometown of Seattle. Kane is a bit of a recluse, spending time on his farm alone and committed to his art. His life is full.
Until the day he meets her.
Wandering through museums is Anastasia Montgomery’s favorite way to spend her time. Not only does art feed her soul, but it inspires her own art of designing wedding cakes. When her muse seems to be gone, she finds her again among the beauty in the museums of Seattle, and the O’Callaghan Museum of Glass is her favorite. She’s never met the artist, but he must be absolutely brilliant, if he can make such beautiful things out of glass.
Bumping into a grumpy stranger at the museum wasn’t in Anastasia’s plan. And then discovering it was Kane himself was absolutely humiliating.
But when she sees him again at a charity fundraiser, and ends up spending an incredible, unforgettable night with the mysterious glass smith, Anastasia finds herself thinking of Kane and little else, even her precious work. Will this relationship bloom into the romance of a lifetime, or will their dreams of success get in the way of true love?

Dream with Me is the thirteenth full-length stand-alone in one of my all-time favorite series’, With Me in Seattle by Kristen Proby! I have been crazy about this series since the very beginning. I sadly missed a few of the novellas back in 2018 so need to get to those ASAFP.
Anastasia Montgomery needed her muse so she went one of her favorite museums, the O’Callaghan Museum of Glass. She loved looking at the all the glasswork and even had her favorite exhibit. The museum gave her inspiration for the wedding cakes for her clients. The trip was the same as any other trip until a man spoke to her in a dreamy Irish accent, and it was dreamy even though he was kind of a jerk. The jerk ended up being The Kane O’Callaghan. She was shocked and embarrassed but it was like she was ever going to see him again. He was a recluse and a famous artist. Oh, how wrong she was…
Kane saw the passion in her eyes the moment he saw her sitting there, sketching away while he watched her draw whatever she was working on. And when he sees her the next night at a gala, he has to find out more about her. He knew instantly one night wouldn’t be enough but she might have other plans by the way she left in the morning.
Aw. I loved this story! It’s definitely one of my faves of the series. Kane and Anastasia’s connection is so sweet, sexy, and fun. It’s also full of heat, love, and passion. They are both artists and they support each other in the best of ways. It was also fun to catch up with Anastasia’s family, it’s a huge one. I need a family tree for this one for sure. And I am hoping the O’Callaghans get a spin-off series…hmmm. They are so much fun.
Overall…I loved it! I finished it in one sitting. I was addicted from the beginning until the very end. I am excited about the next book! Oh…it’s going to be so good.
P.S Darling…*swoon*

“I really do have to work,” she says softly.
“Can I help?”
“No.”
She steps back with a smile. “But you can watch.”
“Darling, I have a feeling that watching you do anything at all is about to be my new favorite hobby.”
“You won’t remember everyone’s names,” Amelia assures Kane as she joins us. “Next time, we’ll wear nametags.”

This series is definitely one of my favorite ones I’ve read. I really enjoyed the story of Anastasia and Kane. It was a sweet, romantic and enjoyable read that will make you swoon! I cannot wait for the next one that comes out 🙂
Anastasia (Stasia) has been busy with her business and when she doesn’t find any inspiration for her next wedding cake, she hits up a new gallery to hopefully find some new ideas. When she comes across an amazing glass collection, it doesn’t take her long before inspiration hits her. It’s also where she first meets Kane, the gorgeous designer who doesn’t really give a great first impression. But Kane’s determined to win her over and it doesn’t take long before both realise that there’s so much more lying underneath. The more time they spend together, the closer they get and soon their relationship seems to grow stronger with each passing day. Will they find their happy ending?…
Dream with Me is book 13 in the With Me In Seattle Series and I was so happy to be back with the Montgomery clan, that being said I firmly believe this book can be read as a stand-alone but I’m sure once you get into the life’s of this group of family and friends you will want more…..
Kane is living his life exactly how he thought he wanted, he is a hermit concentrating on his art made out of glass but that’s about to change when he bumps into Stasia a designer of wedding cakes who finds her inspiration from art what he doesn’t know is and it’s often his glass that helps her create beautiful cakes. A couple of chance meetings lead to a passionate night, it was only meant to be one night but will that be enough or will this couple crave more togetherness and could it possibly lead to a future but will either of them be prepared make the sacrifices needed to make it their forever…..
A beautifully written love story with an adorable couple who share some sizzling chemistry and for me it’s the perfect addition to the With Me In Seattle Series. Looking forward to more
I remember reading the first book in this series and falling in love with the writing and characters now we are on book 13 and the series continues to grow and keeps up a high standard. Anastastia and Kane’s story was beautifully written and romance at it’s finest. Kane is an artist a very intense moody artist but he is also sweet protectice loyal and made me swoon. Anastasia is independent with a fun sassy side that Kane brings out. I loved all the secondary characters some we already know and some that will hopefully be getting their own books. The way the relationship develops felt natural as did the problems they faced as did the way they worked them out. We get a glimpse of the next book which I can’t wait for.
An amazing addition to the With Me in Seattle Series! Kane and Anastasia’s story is unique and fresh with the same charm that only the Montgomery (and extended) family can have! This may be my new favorite in this series! From beginning to end I felt like I was with old friends and that’s such a great feeling with an extended series like this one is. Sweet, romantic and full of a lot of steam this is a huge five stars for me!
Another swoon worthy story for the Montgomery family!!! Anastasia finds her muse among her favorite artists work. Her favorite artist Kane happens to find his muse in Anastasia. Watch their magic unfold as Kristen Proby knocks another one out of the park!!!
Dream With Me was a wonderful story. I loved going on the journey of Anastasia and Kane’s romance. It was so beautiful and sweet. They were so good together-their banter, their chemistry, it was golden. And in all of Kristen’s stories the family dynamic is on point. The Montgomery’s were awesome as always and I am loving the O’Callaghan gang. I can’t wait to get more of that family cause there are some stories to be told for sure. I was smiling and swoony the whole time I was reading. It was just lovely. A very easy, fun, delightful read. But with the ending I am excited for Archer’s book, it will be intense for sure.

Kristen Proby is the queen of romance.
When she writes a book it is the perfect getaway for your mind and soul. I am always swept up in her stories and characters lives. I am a huge fan of her With Me In Seattle series. Every time I read one of the books in this series, I feel like I am coming home. I love the Montgomery clan!!!
I have to say the more books I read in this series, the better and better they get. I thought Dance With Me was my favorite, but I think Kane and Anastasia just stole that spot. Dream With Me is exactly what I look for when I pick up a romance novel. This was the perfect mix of humor, love, romance, sexy times, and even some drama to keep things moving.
Dream With Me is the 13th book in this series and it is just as great if not even better than the first book in this series. If you are a fan of family saga series, then this is one you need to read. I could read these books over and over again. Each book in this series can be read as a complete standalone. There are interconnected characters and you do see past couples in each story, but you will not feel lost if these books are read out of order. I thought the flow and pace of this story was perfect. Many will say that this is an insta-love story, and maybe it is, but it worked for me. I thoroughly enjoyed this book.
In this story we follow Kane and Anastasia. Kane is well known glass blower who has an exhibit in a museum in Seattle. He is somewhat of a recluse and on the private side. But he is good with that, that is until he sees Anastasia for the first time and is instantly attracted. Anastasia is a well known cake maker in Seattle. She is the cousin of the Montgomery clan. When she finds herself having trouble finding inspiration for her cake designs, she goes to her favorite museum and the exhibit by Kane O’Callaghan. Little did she know that on the day she is sketching a new design she will meet the infamous Kane. Can a chance meeting turn into something more?? Read this sexy and swoony story to find out.
As always I loved seeing other Montgomery’s in this story, but I also loved getting to know Kane’s family. Both of these families have such a strong bond. I also loved seeing how Kristen set up the premise of the next book in this series….at least I hope it’s the next one 😉
If you are a fan of Kristen’s books then you need to read this book!!! Add this one to your TBR list NOW!!!
I am a huge Kristen Proby fan, but this book was like coming home. I fell in love with the Montgomery family years ago and Kristen has kept this amazing family going. I loved revisiting the Montgomery’s and getting to know the O’Callaghan’s. This book had me chuckling with the characters, and I felt like I was in the story. My emotions were so invested in what was happening in the story.
The With Me in Seattle Series is one that I absolutely love and can re-read time and time again. Each book that releases in this series captivates me and has me so absorbed with the story I refuse to put it down and Dream with Me was no exception! Anastasia and Kane’s story was sweet, sexy and hands down swoon-worthy! How can you go wrong with an intense Irishman, an adorable dog named Murphy and a woman that tells it like it is? If you love this series as much as I do you don’t want to miss out on this beautiful love story so one-click now!
5 Star Review of Dream With Me (With Me In Seattle #13) by Kristen Proby
I am still relatively new to Kristen Proby, although I have read a couple of other books in the series. This is Kane O’Callaghan and Anastasia (Stasia) Montgomery’s story which was a great addition to the series.
Kane is a hermit, preferring to focus on his glass making art and at his farm. The last thing he wants or needs is a woman to complicate his life. Stasia is a designer of wedding cakes and art often gives her inspiration for her cakes.
Bumping into one another at the gallery, they meet again at a charity fundraiser. This time the sparks fly and they spend an amazing night together. However can one night morph in to forever?
The chemistry and attraction between Kane and Stasia is off the charts and I so wanted them to get their happily ever after.
Kane and Stasia are so good together but is Kane prepared to give up his single life, after all he has been on his own for a long time? Both will need to compromise, the question is, will they?
From start to finish, I was totally invested in their love story and in my opinion this is another winner from Ms. Proby.
Such an amazing read and series and so many more stories to come. Kane and Anastasia both express themselves through their art. Kane with his glass sculptures and Anastasia with her beautiful cakes. This story was so filled with love. Love for each other as well as their families. Family plays such an important part of this series. It is so sweet to see them in each story. As if Anastasia’s family wasn’t big enough now we add on Kane’s family. This series can go on and on and gets better with each new one.

Another trip back to Seattle. I love this series. I really enjoyed that this was a normal story about the ups and downs of figuring out a new relationship. Kane and Anastasia have instant chemistry. They seem perfect for each other and it was so sweet the way they came together. Great trip back to see many of the Montgomery clan.
I absolutely could not put this book down! I believe this is my new favorite Kristen Proby book. I love that there is no forced drama. I loved meeting the O’Callaghan clan and Kristen left me dying for the next book!
This book captured me in ‘my’ Seattle world from the very beginning. This series is just utter perfection. I feel like going home and being with my best friends while reading this series!
Anastasia Montgomery bakes wedding cakes for a living. And she likes to go to the Museum of Glass for inspiration. Where she meets the artist himself, Kane O’Callaghan. And than she meets him again the next night at a gala.
Kristen Proby writes again a beautiful story in this series! I devoured this story in one sitting, I just couldn’t put my kindle down. I loved the characters a lot, the side characters always play a big role, and I can’t wait for the next book!!!
Kristen blew me away with all the feels on this one! I was hooked from the first chapter and read it in one sitting! 5 Seattle stars for this one!
Meet Anastasia, she bakes and designs cakes. When she’s lost for inspiration, she heads to the museum. One day while at the museum, she bumps into a man, not just any man but the Kane O’Callahan, famous artist of glass blowing, and who’s work she is currently studying. Kane thinks she’s copying his work for her cakes, till he see’s her drawings and is amazed.
When these two meet again, the sparks continue to fly, and they spend one amazing night together, but when he wakes, she’s gone. Can he convince her it’s more than just one night for him?
These two have amazing chemistry, you will fall right along with them! Grab it asap!
I liked this one a lot. The main characters had interesting and on the surface not related jobs, yet they had more in common than you might suspect. It was a great story, and great characters. I was sorry when it was done.
Stasia and Kane
I have really enjoyed the Montgomery stories but this one just wasn’t as good. It felt fractured. It did not flow smoothly. Too many bits and pieces. Sorry.
So Loved
I love Kristen’s writing. Her stories bring such real life together in a story, especially all the family members being around and close. Kane is a glass artist who sees her drawing in one section at the museum that shows his art. Anastasia is a wedding cake baker and designer and needs inspiration. But something clicks and then he sees her again at a charity event, and there is no stopping them.
Very sweet and enjoyable.
