We know nearly from the beginning that something in Tristan’s past is haunting him and causing his insomnia but it’s a ways into the book before we find out exactly what it is. Sam’s voice calms Tristan and helps him get the sleep he really needs. Tristan has the business expertise and patience to help Sam gently ease into doing the things he needs to do to help his business. Tristan and Sam are perfect for each other. To his great surprise, the app actually does help him get to sleep. Tristan has insomnia and a friend refers him to Sam’s Sleep With Me app. He knows he needs to make some changes in order for his meditation business to succeed.

Nor do I expect to become enthralled by the voice of its creator, Sam Stephenson.

Sleep with Me, a locally-made meditation app, promises a cure. But when an ill-timed doze behind the wheel of my car nearly introduces me to a pole, I know something has to change. It’s part of the penance I pay for my greatest mistake. For years, I’ve been bound by sleeplessness and sorrow.
