A guy, a girl, and a pair of handcuffs. What could possibly go wrong?
In this college humor, coming-of-age tale, everything.
Seniors, Collin and Jess, wake up handcuffed the morning after a wild party. Collin is bound for work, Jess bound for a Shakespeare final. If Collin doesn’t show, he’ll lose a chance at a big promotion. If Jess doesn’t show, she’ll lose her chance to be a school teacher. Then there’s the fact she rejected him freshman year. They haven’t spoken a word since. Not awkward at all.
Told in alternating first person with hints of Shakespeare’s A Midsummer Night’s Dream, In Your Dreams finds boy and girl struggling to adult on the last day of finals week and trying to survive each other.
