About this listen

His student. His obsession. His undoing.

"Maybe there’s something in two broken souls needing the same thing, at the same time, then searching for it in the same place."

Aaron Jones has survived by hiding behind walls of control and calculated indifference. He’s had to. As the son of two infamous serial killers, people either fear him, pity him, or crave to peel him open just to see what’s underneath. The last thing he needs is anyone digging into his past. Especially not a man who makes him want to surrender every defence.

Dr Kenneth Lyons. Criminal psychologist. Brilliant. Respected. Off-limits. And the one man Aaron can’t seem to resist.

Kenny has always been drawn to the shadows of the human mind, but nothing is darker, or more tempting, than the new haunted student in his lecture hall.

Aaron is beautiful, complicated, and utterly forbidden. Every rule says he should walk away. Every glance, every brush of contact, makes that impossible. Desire twists into obsession. Boundaries shatter. Every kiss is dangerous. Every touch is a confession. And every moment brings them closer to ruin.

But when a new killer surfaces on campus, mimicking the crimes of Aaron’s parents, their intoxicating entanglement turns deadly. Someone wants to resurrect the past. Someone wants to expose the truth. And if Kenny isn’t careful, giving into Aaron could cost him everything.

Dream a Little Dream (To Love a Psycho, Book 1) launches the dark MM To Love a Psychoromantic thriller series where Aaron and Kenny’s story begins, and never truly ends. Their bond of forbidden desire and dangerous obsession threads through every murder, every secret, and every temptation. For listeners who crave their romance steeped in danger, tangled with lies, and bound by a love that should never happen… yet refuses to let go.

This was very different to what I usually read/listen to but I did enjoy it. I just wish I would have known it ended on a cliffhanger, I wouldn't have started it until all books were available on Audible.

I may or may not read the next book.

It's funny, because for a lot of this one, I thought "this just isn't a book for me". I'm not really a dark romance person, so I felt like maybe I wasn't clicking, but the narrator was phenomenal so I just kept going...then all the sudden I was 100% full throttle all the way in. It ended and I was so mad that there wasn't more?! (I know it's a series, but I'd like to stick with audio, so I'm going to have to wait). It's not really a mystery to the reader, we get hit over the head with what Aaron discovers later, but it's still dark and twisty and so interesting. Can't wait to see where White takes it.

Okay, I'm hooked.

This is the first of a trilogy.


Aaron and Kenny, student and professor, are attracted to each other. Then a body is found on campus and then their involvement makes this a page turner. I really enjoyed listening to the start of this story and will be wanting to get the next.

Good start to the trilogy

I just recently listened to my first ever CF White book (All Wrapped Up) in which Aaron was a side character and I was so intrigued by his character & very excited to find out he has his own whole series!

It’s been a really long time since I read a proper book series, where the romance is told across all the books and I really enjoyed this one! Yes we don’t get a ton of “spicy scenes” with our MCs together but the tension is palpable!

Plus so much else is going on plot-wise, I didn’t feel like anything was missing because I was fully invested in solving the crime mystery of the book. Which is what makes this imo more a crime book with romantic elements, but I know in the next books their relationship will continue to develop. I can’t wait for the next book to be available on audio because the story and narration are both fantastic!!

Incredible mystery with romantic elements!

Forbidden love, age-gap, student/teacher and a compelling serial killer story! I loved this when I read it with my eyes but Piers Ryman took it to a whole new level with his audio performance.

I read all of the books and now can’t wait to listen to the next two in audio! *note that this isn’t really a standalone story.

Great beginning to this series!
