I've read numerous Linda Howard books and realized this was my least favorite about halfway through the story. DREAM MAN lacked the normal zing and fervor in which she usually brings to the written page.Marlie Keen is an empath, a type of psychic, who is uncomfortable in revealing her powers to anyone, thus keeping everyone at a distance. Six years ago, she endured a killer's attempted revenge, only to be traumatized to the point of having no powers. When these return, she is thrown into mind of a vicious killer. After going to the police, she is doubted and considered an accomplice. Once her alibi is verified, Detective Dane Hollister gives in to his instant attraction.When Marlie has another vision, she calls Dane, who immediately rushes to her side. After witnessing the trauma a vision causes Marlie, he is determined to protect her at all costs. He moves into her home and invades all aspects of her life. Invades and conquers... it was more like a Viking domineering his woman.The problem right from the start of this book is Dane's incredible attraction to Marlie. They argue and act like children who are attracted to each other. When Dane decides that he wants to be involved with her, he snaps his fingers and expects Marlie to fall in line. At this point, she loses her spunk and becomes a dishrag doll happy to be the obedient girlfriend. The strong character the reader is introduced to is snuffed out and replaced with a shell.The story lags when Marlie and Dane are not on the trail of the serial killer. We're given hot and steam sex scene after sex scene, with little intellectual meat.
