Why these tropes fit
Bryn Reyes suffers from Klein-Levin Syndrome, a 'sleeping beauty' affliction that traps her for weeks or months at a time in an alternate dream world built from her memories. When a mysterious boy with no memory of who he is washes up on the shore of that dream world, Bryn's condition worsens, bringing hallucinations even while she is awake. Desperate for a cure, she agrees to experimental treatment from a German specialist, Dr. Banz, only to learn he has been hiding knowledge about her symptoms. The amnesiac boy in her dreams may hold the key to understanding her affliction, but unless Bryn uncovers his identity in time, neither of them may survive.
