Dream on (Deluxe Edition)

*The limited deluxe edition comes with gorgeous printed edges*

From USA Today bestselling author Jennifer Hartmann comes an all-new standalone new adult crossover romance filled with heartache and dreams.

Lexington Hall and I were never supposed to collide--he, the golden boy of Hollywood, and me, a small-town dreamer with stars in my eyes. But when we shared the stage in our high school musical, something ignited.

Then, just as quickly, it all fell apart, leaving my dreams in pieces.

Now, four years later, Lex is a household name, turning our past into a television sensation. He's spun our story for the world to see, while I'm still haunted by what we lost.

With millions obsessed over the "real" Stevie St. James, Lex reappears with an offer too tempting to turn down: a fake romance to keep the buzz alive, in exchange for the financial freedom I desperately need.

I convince myself I can play the part. But as old feelings resurface and new risks emerge, the line between fiction and reality begins to blur.

Dreams are easy to chase--but falling for the guy who shattered mine could cost me everything.

Dream On by Jennifer Hartmann was such an enjoyable read! What really stood out to me was how the story took us through Stevie and Lex’s relationship from the very beginning—starting all the way back in high school. Following their journey across different stages of life gave such a full, big-picture perspective, which made the depth and complexity of their relationship feel even more meaningful and real.

I especially loved Stevie’s unwavering devotion. She was always there, always seeing the best in Lex—even when he couldn’t see it himself. That dynamic added so much heart to the story.

I also found the Hollywood angle really fascinating. Hartmann didn’t shy away from showing the reality behind the glamour—the loneliness, the pressure, and the constant demands of being in the spotlight. That honesty added another layer to the book that I truly appreciated.

Overall, this was a heartfelt and layered story about love, growth, and the cost of chasing dreams. I really enjoyed it and would absolutely recommend it to readers who like emotional, character-driven romance with an honest look at life behind the scenes.
