Colleen Coble writes romantic suspense with a strong atmospheric element. A lovable animal of some kind--usually a dog--always populates her novels. She can be bribed with DeBrand mocha truffles.
Denise Hunter writes women's fiction and love stories with a strong emotional element. Her husband says he provides her with all her romantic material, but Denise insists a good imagination helps too.
Diann Hunt writes romantic comedy and humorous women's fiction. She has been happily married forever, loves her family, chocolate, her friends, chocolate, her dog, and well, chocolate.
Cheryl Hodde writes romantic medical suspense under the pen name of Hannah Alexander, using all the input she can get from her husband, Mel, for the medical expertise. For fun she hikes and reads. Out of guilt, she rescues discarded cats. She and Mel are presently taking orders from four pampered strays.

That is so funny, usually I am the one having those dreams in our marriage! My DH has nice dreams about me! LOL
Sounds like a "fun" personality trait for a book character...:-)
I have the dreams in our marriage and I'd wake up heart broken because they were so vivid.
Now my hubby just says, "What did she look like?" and snuggles with me until I feel loved again. :)
I'm with Julie. Sounds like a perfect character trait for a hero or heroine. I can see the problems and the fun clear as day. :)
I'm not yet blessed with a husband yet, but I can only imagine what kinds of things will take adapting when God finally leads me down the altar. Oh, is life going to be a great ride then!
Sigh ... I can relate, Denise. I hate it when they get in those moods. But mine usually comes out as soon as I offer a cup of coffee.
LOL! I'm glad I'm not the only one, though I'm sorry for you. Those dreams stick...and hard.
And Kristin, I've had spider dreams for years. At least now I can point to a good reason (hope it works!).
Ouch! Sometimes its easier to hang onto anger than work it out... to give up the control... and as a guy... well, you get the picture. I think its hardest being held in bondage to the anger as you can't go on completely, there's a little lump in your heart. Lord, I pray for a touch for Denise's husband's heart, that You might reach in and open it for her. Amen. PS - a terrific GUY marriage book, that your husband could relate too, but that would be awesome to read TOGETHER, would be "Sacred Marriage - what if God created marriage to make you Holy, not happy" by Gary Thomas

It is THE best marriage book my husband and I've ever read - and trust me we've read hundreds in prep for marriage bible studies! I'm thinking that if you read it together your husband would draw his own conclusions from it...its written from a guy's point of view.
Thanks for sharing your heart!

That's so funny! I thought my hubby was the only one. Not only does he get mad after a dream, but he'll get mad at me while he's sleep talking. Or, like the other night, sleep crawling. Yep, in the middle of the night, he slid out of bed and started crawling around on the floor like an idiot, and he completely freaked me out. I thought something was wrong, and was like "uh, should I hit the floor too??" Turns out he was sound asleep - and got SO mad when I told him so! The next morning, he had no recollection of anything. ::::sigh:::: MEN!!!!
I have weird dreams like that where I leave Tony or he leaves me. Usually, no matter which is the case, his attitude in the dream is always indifferent. As if he could care less if we got back together or not. My heart breaks in the dream and I am so glad to wake up.
Tony has since renamed this guy Herbert and we don't care much for him.
It is weird though cause I don't feel insecure or anything.
I pray about it, too. If there's anything hidden, I ask the Lord to show me.
So far, I figure Herbert just needs a butt whooping. ;)
Hope you had a good day!
Okay, I'll fess up to being the dreamer in my marriage. During our first year of marriage the dreams were pretty bad. There were times I woke up crying because of something my hubby did or said in the dream. And he always had the indifferent attitude, too. But I know the cause for me was...gulp...insecurity. Yup. There was an ex-girlfriend of his that wouldn't get out of the picture while we were dating and engaged. I found that during our first year of marriage these dreams came most often when I was emotionally stressed or knew that we were going somewhere where she may potentially be. I would have these dreams for a week prior to the event. The weird thing was, despite the minute chance she'd show up, she always managed to appear. It was a challenging time. Things have definately got better. That's what 7 years and 3 kids will do for you. Also, my hubby was extremely loving and sweet during all the rough mornings after. He would cuddle me until I felt loved and secure again. He's so sweet. The funny thing is, she's still around in a rather round-about, bizzare way. We just laugh about it now! God has been good that way. But talk about growing pains! :-)
That's how mine are, too, Rachel. Bob's attitude was indifferent and in the dream, I'd feel desperate to make him feel pain like I was. It's crazy because I'm secure in my marriage, too. Maybe Bob and I should give this dude a name, too lol.
Maybe instead of insecurity, it's something we are eating lol.
Denise,
I'm shocked at you and the rest of these ladies who feel the need to tear down their husbands in public!
We as Christian women should be building them up...
Kristin,
The shot about you making the money, sad child.
An Old Lady Who Still Loves Her Husband Enough To NEVER Tear Him Down for the purpose of a Blog.

Mona, our husbands are almost as much a part of this blog as we are! Anything I write publicly about my husband, I run by him first, and in fact, he usually has things he wants me to add. LOL!
None of it is meant to tear down, but rather to bring a smile of recognition because many of us can see ourselves in the daily stuff about which we write.
