Many thanks to NBRC and the publisher for providing me with a copy of this book. I don't think that I would have discovered it on my own and that would have been a shame. I think I was hooked from the very beginning. Any book that mentions some sort of psychological mystery is usually an easy hook to get me into it. The story had missing memories, love, mysteries, identity questions and a lot of introspection and character growth. I thought it was well done, well written and kept me interested throughout. I think I will definitely be checking out more books by this author. I totally have a thing for memory loss books. The idea of waking up having no idea who you are just absolutely fascinates me. Of course when I learned that this book was about amnesia and love and finding ones self, I was all over it! Lucie Walker wakes up in San Francisco alone, scared and with no idea who she is. Can you EVEN imagine? After searching for anyone that can claim her and tell authorities who she is, Grady comes to claim her. Grady is the man Lucie is supposed to marry, but she has no clue who he is or if she loved him. Think about that for a second. If you partner looked at you one day and had NO idea who you were...can you imagine the pain that would cause you? The feeling of helplessness? I felt so awful for Grady. As we go on in the book, we learn that along with her memory loss Lucie has also had a major personality shift. From uptight, to fun loving. She is still the same person...but different. Maybe better? Grady has to struggle with his feeling surrounding that. There is more to the story, and it's all beautifully written and detailed. This isn't an easy read. It's a deep dive into the life of a woman trying to come to grips with who she was, who she is and who she is meant to be. It begs the question: If you had a chance to change the way you have lived your life and become a person that you may have wanted to be but didn't think you could...would you? This book certainly makes you think about the possibility of that! All in all, I really enjoyed reading this. It wasn't your typical romance but it was a great book and I definitely recommend it! sem resenhas | adicionar uma resenha
Who is Lucie Walker? Even Lucie herself can't answer that question after she comes to, confused and up to her knees in the chilly San Francisco Bay. Back home in Seattle, she adjusts to life with amnesia, growing unsettled by the clues she finds to the selfish, carefully guarded person she used to be. Will she ever fall in love with her handsome, kindhearted fiance, Grady? Can he devote himself to the vulnerable, easygoing Lucie 2.0, who is so unlike her controlling former self? When Lucie learns that Grady has been hiding some very painful secrets that could change the course of their relationship, she musters the courage to search for the shocking, long-repressed childhood memories that will finally set her free.

Lucie Walker is found wading in San Francisco Bath, and can’t remember who she is or why she is there. When her fiancé, Grady, comes for her, she doesn’t remember him or the life they shared. All he can tell her is that her parents died when she was a teen, and she hates her only living relative, Aunt Helen, as that is the only family info she ever shared with him.
As Lucie regains her memory, or is given bits of her history by Helen, the tragedy of what happened to her family as a teen, and her latest mind break have similarities.
This is a story of family trauma, patience, and forgiveness. Quick read. ( )
