He’s the son of serial killers. Now he's falling for the man who profiles them.
This was never supposed to become an obsession.
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 Psycho romantic 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.

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

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!

But at first, it actually took a while for the story to captivate me. This was probably because the author created the two protagonists, Aaron and Kenny, in such depth that it takes a while to get to know them well. Not much happens at the beginning. Kenneth Lyons is a professor and a brilliant criminal psychologist. Aaron is the boy who was placed in foster care after his parents were convicted of being serial killers by Kenny. I found the constellation quite interesting, and after about a third of the way through, I was completely captivated by the story.
Aaron had to go through so much just because of his parents—it broke my heart. Because he not only experienced rejection in the foster care system, but also from Kenny. I wanted to take him in my arms and tell him that everything would be okay.
The professor, on the other hand, is fighting his own battle between desire and attraction to Aaron and ethics. I wasn't always thrilled with the decisions he made, but I could understand his reasons. ,

Once the story picked up speed, it was exciting, but at the same time dark and gloomy, and unfortunately the ending came much too quickly. I'm waiting for the second volume and I'm not giving up hope that there will be a happy ending for Aaron and Kenny – because the chemistry between the two is definitely palpable!
The audiobook was narrated by Piers Ryman, and he did a brilliant job! He read in a very varied way, and I was able to empathize with Kenny and Aaron very well because Piers Ryman brought them to life and conveyed their emotions superbly
Great start to the series!
