Dream Cast and Theme Songs - A Guest Post by Kimberly Loth
Dreamcasts are so much fun!!! Here is mine along with theme songs for each character.
Meet My main Character: Naomi-Obedient, beautiful, and brave, she’s been oppressed her whole life and she spends most of the book trying to figure out how to overcome that.
Naomi
Dreamcast: Chloe Moretz
Theme song: Are You Gonna Kiss me or Not? by Thompson Square
After Naomi, my favorite characters are her boys. I love love love Love triangles, so of course I wrote one. Will Naomi pick the right one in the end?
Kai
Dreamcast: Matt Lanter
Theme Song: Bed of Roses by Bon Jovi
Naomi's thoughts: "I looked up and saw a very handsome boy smiling down at me. He had coarse brown hair that curled around his ears and it looked like he hadn’t shaved in a few days, but he had a smile to die for."
Puck
Dreamcast: Adam Lambert
Theme Song: If I had you by Adam Lambert
Naomi's thoughts: "In the center of the picture sat a young man. He hugged his knees to his chest with hands that had painted black nails. His entire outfit was nearly all black, from the chunky boots to the half ripped t-shirt. I leaned closer to the picture. He had thick eyeliner and his hair stuck up in four-inch spikes, tipped with violet."
Throughout the book Naomi makes several friends, but her best friend is Ruth.
Ruth
Dreamcast: Molly Quinn
Theme Song: Brave by Sara Bareilles
Naomi's thoughts: "Her heart-shaped face was surrounded by hair that burst from her head like orange corkscrew noodles and her baby blue eyes sparkled with excitement. She looked a little crazy, but then I wasn’t naturally a good judge of character."
Thanks for reading! I hope you enjoyed my picks. If you’ve read the book, share your ideas. Who would you have picked?

As the big day approaches, Naomi unearths more secrets of about her father’s cult.
