With Every Memory is by a new to me author. This is a compelling and gritty story. It gripped me from the first page until the very end. I just had to keep reading to find out about the heroine's lost memories and what happened before the accident. This is told from two points of view. Lori, the mom who lost her memory, and her daughter Avery who was also in the tragic accident that killed Austin. Michael, the husband and father was driving the car.
Lori lost her only son and her memories. Avery is 18 and struggling in her senior year of school. There is tension and stress between Lori and Michael. But also love and tenderness as well that offered me hope as I was reading. So, there is actually two romances going on. Lori and her husband Michael trying to learn to love each other again and between Avery and her brother's best friend Xander. And boy, let me tell you he is the best. So sweet and compassionate, and very patient with Avery.

Also, the epilogue is Dana's catnip! LOVED IT!! Happily ever after!!

I really enjoyed this book and I will be reading more from this very talented author. I read the teaser for her next book and that will be tops on my to be read list.

4.5 stars

This is the first book I've read by this author. Alternating voices of Lori and Avery slowing reveals the hurt and pain this family is dealing with when a tragic accident happens. It is sometimes a little confusing with the flashbacks as the secrets are being revealed. Traumatic Brain Injury aspect of the story was enlightening. Teenage drama was realistic, along with the bullying. Lots of hard issues are addressed in this emotionally driven book.

After a devastating car accident that resulted in the loss of her son and months in a rehabilitation facility, Lori Mendenhall returns to a home that she doesn't remember, and a family and life that doesn't match up with the last memories she has - from 8 years ago. As she tries to fit what she knows with what is happening now, who will she choose to become from this day forward?

This book covers a lot of tough topics within its pages; sensitive readers should be aware of the subject matter (but I don't want to spoil anything - I'm sure there are warnings in other descriptions). However, it comes with the good reminder that personal memories aren't one hundred percent reliable, and that there are two sides to every story. Even with the worst of situations, with grace can come second chances.

3 stars to this book; it was good, and I'm sure it will resonate with some readers more than it did with me.

I received a digital copy of this book, via NetGalley, from the publisher, in exchange for my honest review.

It’s not often that I’ve found a book so profound it has me thinking about its message throughout my day.
This book touched on the subjects of death, adultery, memory loss, and much more within the family dynamic.
Though the issues were hard, they were presented in a way that was real and preserved the message and integrity of the story. Some themes were forgiveness, love, and a journey of discovery.
Lori has lost eight years of her life after surviving an accident that took her son. Physical and emotional challenges are only part of the problem. As her memories return she’s not sure she likes who she had become.
Michael sees his wife’s memory loss as a way to reset their marriage. He’s not sure how to go about it and blaming himself for the accident isn’t helping.
Add in Avery, a moody teenager who lost her twin brother, a best friend who could become more, a few mean girls, and not so subtle mother-in-law, and you have the makings of a wonderful family drama.
I can’t describe how touched I was by this book. It stirred up my emotions so I was feeling every pain and every triumph. I longed for Lori and Michael’s marriage to be restored to a new place and for Avery to come to terms with her brother’s death.
This is a novel I highly recommend.
I received a copy through Interviews and Reviews courtesy of Revell. This is my honest opinion of the book.

Oh my stars! This incredible book gave me all the feels. It tore my heart apart and then knitted the jagged edges back together in the most beautiful way!
Janine Rosche is an auto-buy author for me, if she writes it I’m gonna read it!
I was completely enthralled with this book from page one, the pages flew, and I couldn’t stop reading because I had to know what would happen next! At each new twist and turn I fell even more in love with this story.
This story is told in alternating first person POV between Lori and her daughter, Avery which gives the reader a well of depth and insight into the characters and what is going through their minds, we truly get to see the world through their eyes.
This may be Women’s Fiction but there was also plenty of Janine Rosche’s trademark sweet and swoony romance, as well as several humorous moments that made me laugh, loved that!
The faith story in this book is more subtle than this author’s previous books, but if you look you will see the love and light of Jesus shining through the broken pieces more brilliantly and beautifully than a thousand sunsets.
This book will make you forget you’re reading, you’ll feel like you’re living the story alongside the characters, and feeling what they feel.
With Every Memory tackles some tough topics, but does so with grace and sensitivity.
Without giving spoilers I will just say that I came away from this book with a deeper understanding of what love, loyalty, and forgiveness truly looks like.
I absolutely loved With Every Memory, it’s one of my favorite reads of 2023, and I most highly recommend it if you like books about broken, relatable characters seeking hope and love in this dark world.
Janine Rosche is a tremendously talented author, and With Every Memory is a thought provoking read that just might inspire you to judge less, listen more, and love always.


I received a complimentary ebook copy of this book from the publisher.
My review was not influenced in any way. All thoughts and opinions are one hundred percent my own.

A mother that looses a child, but also part of her memory. Yes, a tragic accident and this families lives are changed forever.

As Lori is released from the hospital, and her memories begin to slowly return, and we are with this mother as she deals with the grief of loosing her son, but also with her daughter whom has lost her twin.

This is Lori's story, but also her husband Michael's, and their daughter Avery. Avery is also dealing with her brother's best friend Xander, and they seem to have a love hate relationship.

There are some series topics that come to light in this book, and they are handled very well.

Will this family survive intact, a really can't imagine all that they are going though. The author does a great job of bring this read alive, and as I was page turning I was really surprised when the bomb shells started to drop, most I never expected!

I received this book through Net Galley and the Publisher Revell, and was not required to give a positive review.

Lori has suffered a Traumatic Brain Injury and is trying to reintegrate herself into her life as best as she can as memories slowly come back.

This was a unique plot line of dealing with infidelity and sexual assault, and while at first, I was kind of lost as to who was speaking, I am not able to say that this story really touched or connected me to this family. The issues were hard and while I felt they dealt with well, I didn’t really like any one of the characters except Avery and Xander.

My gratitude to Netgalley and Revell. All opinions expressed are mine and honest.

Janine Rosche has done a masterful work writing about difficult topics in "With Every Memory". Immediately I was drawn into the character of Lori, who has lost her memory due to an accident, to the character of her husband Michael, who is hiding important things from her. The accident not only took her memory but the life of her son Austin, Avery's twin brother. The story takes many unexpected twists and turns as Lori's fragmented memories return. Will she remember things best left forgotten? Will Michael's true character be revealed? Will Avery resume life after the loss of her twin? "With Every Memory" is a story of patience, love, forgiveness, and healing. Set aside some tissue, as you will need it. Also, set aside a day to read as you will not be able to put this book down.

An ARC copy was provided but the opinions are my own.

This is a slow burn but has a great storyline and it is really interesting seeing how amnesia is depicted and how different characters react to Lori's accident. I don't think this is the best book out there but I like how it delves into deeper topics quite skilfully and the characters and storyline are well written.

With every memory by Janine Rosche publishing date June 23 by Revell
This one did start slow for me and I wasn’t sure I’d be hooked which is what I usually look for in a book. But I was hooked shortly after I started reading this one. The story starts with Lori married mom of twins Austin and Avery. There was a tragic accident and with that accident lori suffered a traumatic brain injury and memory loss. As the story goes on there is a lot of twists and turns and many secrets and lies. This story touches on many subjects and family dynamics.wove into a very engrossing story. I believe this is a first for me from this author. But I do not think it’ll be a last.
Thank you NetGalley for the opportunity to read this one early! Janine Rosche you knocked it out the park. Much enjoyed this book!!

Very well written. Very good storyline but in my opinion, this was just a clean read not Christian fiction. Nominal mention of God, no one had a personal relationship with Christ.

The author was new to me, but I picked this one up because of the premise and because Revell is one of my favorite places to get fiction. Books on memory loss always grab my attention because I live with amnesia and some residual effects from an event 11 years ago, so I'm always curious how the topic will be addressed. I'm glad I looked at the acknowledgements early on to see that the author consulted with someone who had a traumatic brain injury, because at first I was thinking it felt more like a sort of artificial Hallmark-type amnesia. But in all fairness, every TBI is different, so who am I to judge? Overall I could tell Janine was being thoughtful about it, so even though it didn't always feel logical to me, it's my personal experience that kept me from just going with it and enjoying the story.

I liked the POV of Lori's daughter best, and I'm glad she chose to include different perspectives and layers to this family's story. Unfortunately I really didn't like most of the characters, and it's not because of the quality of the writing--that was fine. But it was rough.

Normally Revell's books are a great fit, but this one surprised me with how much more heavy and dark it was--in a way that didn't really get to the resolution and give me reason to say "Yes, all that was necessary for this story and ending and makes sense." It felt more like someone observing something that happened in real life without curating it to a story that had something that gave the reader a return on their time, that sort of dark slog that I usually see more in secular fiction.

I'll be curious what other readers think, as I know my experiences have probably affected my ability to enjoy this one, while at the same time they were why I picked it up. I'd try another of Janine's books though, as they look very different from this one. It seems she was trying a new direction for her writing, and I'm curious, again, to see how it works for most readers.

Lori has been in a bad car accident which causes her to lose her memory. She has to dig really deep to try and remember long before the accident happened. This book gave me all the “feels” and then some. There are lots of triggers in this book but the author warns you ahead of time. Thanks NetGalley and the publisher for this early release in exchange for my honest review.

I was given this book by NetGalley for an honest review-
Lori and her family are in an accident where she had head injuries and cannot remember. She digs in to try to retrieve her memories to try to heal their marriage and restore their family. A touching, heartbreaking book on healing and family life and what is important in life. A great read!

Many thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for providing me with this ARC in exchange for my honest review. I'm honored every time I'm given the opportunity to read an author's work in advance of publication.

2.75 stars. Oh boy! I really wanted to love this book as I'm a big Janine Rosche fan. There were many things I liked about this story but I didn't love it.

Rosche's writing was well done as usual and I was intrigued by Lori's journey to regain her memory. I also liked Lori's daughter's story but found Xander's behavior somewhat confusing. Lori's mom was just plain annoying and mean although I got the sense that she may have been intended as some comic relief but. that didn't work for me. Same with Lori's husband. Like Xander, I found his running hot and cold towards his wife confusing as the reason wasn't clear to me.

Finally, and this may just be a sign of the times, but the trigger warnings at the beginning was a bit off-putting and I actually considered not reading the book after reading it. I'm glad I did as Janine Rosche handled some really serious topics thoughtfully and with grace.

Good enough to read it through to the end but probably not something I'd read again.. This is probably more of a reading preference versus something wrong with the book. Even though the author's prior books have tackled serious issues, this one felt more somber and dark. Lately, I've preferred books that are lighter and make me laugh.

I loved "With Every Memory" by Janine Rosche! This book hooked me from the very beginning. The characters were well developed and very likeable. Even though this was classified as General Fiction, it had a little mystery to it, which I loved! The ending was very different than I thought it was going to be. This is the first book I've read by this author, but it won't be my last. I highly recommend this book.

I received an ARC of this book from the publisher through NetGalley for my honest opinion.
