Forgetting You

I really liked the character building and the relationship progressing through the novel. It was perhaps a bit slow at certain points, but entertaining enough to keep going. I would ultimately recommend this to a fan of simply good ya romance.

Wow! What an unbelievable story, LA Casey has an uncanny ability to create stories that capture you at chapter one! And Forgetting You, did just that, Elliott and Noah have the kind of love that withstand the test of time. Forgetting You had me reeling with emotions, something that had me hooked that I couldn’t stop reading until the end. Such an amazing storyline, I loved it and highly recommend reading.

Forgetting You by L.A. Casey a tail of two halves. I have struggled with figuring a rating for this story as for the first third at least, I struggled to read, it wasn’t bad it just didn’t grip me all the time, some parts were great and then other chunks just could have been pulled to make a better story. I was frustrated as I was left wondering if the author was American writing a story set in London, or just trying to appease an American audience, but it only happened at first, once the author got into their stride it became five-stars all the way. I had not read the author previously but after the strength of the latter part of the story I will definitely be picking them up again. Noah Ainsley was great, you could feel her confusion and heart break, when she realises that she doesn’t remember her recent life, how bereft she feels when she doesn’t understand what led to the decisions she made, when she doesn’t remember her own husband, who she knows she should love an not the man she is actually in love with. Elliot is just like a warm hug he made me feel safe reading the story, if there was every something meant to be it was him. Do pick this story up, as it could have been me just not getting into it, and if you do struggle at the start keep going as I promise you it gets so much better, it became a story I wont easily forget.

When I read synopsis about Forgetting You I was hocked.
Ot goes like this:

When Noah Ainsley wakes up in a hospital room with no recollection of how she got there, all she knows is that she needs to see Elliot, the love of her life. Then she learns the horrifying truth: her short-term memory has been destroyed by a car accident . She and Elliot broke up five years ago. And now she’s married to Anderson, a man she doesn’t even recognise.

In an instant Noah’s world is turned on its head. All she wants is Elliot by her side, but it’s clear Anderson is hurt by her rejection. Can she really have fallen in love with this stranger? Nothing makes sense—and when even Elliot refuses to answer her questions, Noah is left feeling all alone.

But as her memories slowly return, Noah begins to wonder if she’s been wrong to shut Anderson out—and wrong to put all her trust in Elliot. The ex she loves and the husband she doesn’t remember hold the keys to her past. And when the truth is finally revealed, which future will Noah’s heart choose?

... So if you saw the movie the Vow or read that book, and you liked it this book is 100% for you
I loved reading about Noah and Elliot relationship as a flashback.
They are made for one another. But what I don't get in this book is the break up. After 7 years of relationship and with all that love, his panic was a stupid reason to end it all.
... And after that we found that she was depressed, and so hurt that she finds another guy in minutes and goes to live with him.
.... And he isn't the best guy. He is manipulative, he abuses her mentally and physically. And because of the and because she is ashamed of that she cuts her parents and all she loves from her life. Yes, that can happen, but I don't get it how can just leave from Elliot like that. The reason is not that great that is a breaking point.
Yes, he cheating, he leaving, he something other then saying after million times yes to marriage, he said it no for now because his parents are getting a divorce. And he panicked.
And that is the end of them, after 7 years...
So what to say more than this could be so much better, it is ok, but not the best...
3 stars....

It's okay.
No intimate scenes other than the Hero and heroine.

This was like watching over-dramatic Lifetime movie.
You can see from miles where is story going I literally didn't like anything.
I'm sure other's might like it it, but i didn't.

I've been a fan of LA Casey for a while so I was always going to buy this book. She has a way of drawing you into the story, the way she writes grips you from the start.
Noahs tale has you wondering from the beginning why her life has turned out this way. Some authors focus too much on the main characters, I love the way LA Casey draws you into each and every character's traits and personalities. I'm probably waffling in this review but it was just SO good.
My favourite book of this author was always Until Harry, until I read Her Lifeline. I now think Forgetting You has just knocked them both off the top spot! Total 5 star!

What an amazing story, I a big fan of Lee's and when I saw this was up on NetGalley I was so excited and when I saw I got a copy I did a happy dance, WHat to say about this book without giving too much away, Noah and Elliot were great characters and I really enjoyed reading about them and their story was a hard one but lee wrote it so well I felt part of the story with them. I felt all the up and downs and so glad I got to read this, it's such a great book.

I greatly enjoyed this book, thank you for giving me a preview copy. The plot was interesting and fast paced and I sympathised with the characters. This is the first novel I have read by this author but I hope it will not be the last!

OMG where to start... This book has your heart from the prolog. I cried, I laughed, I hurt and I loved as if this was my story. L.A. Casey is an amazingly talented author and she has once again captured my heart with her writing. This story does not disappoint at all. I was sad to see the end of the story because I was at the last page but as with her other stories This one has a happily ever after as well.

Elliot and Noah are the perfect couple that were separated buy something seemingly small. Years later, after a tragic accident they are pushed together by some thing that I can only define as fate. but although this accident has brought this couple back together will their love be enough? or is there something else in store for them? after Noah’s accident she wakes up with amnesia and doesn’t remember the past five years of her life. She’s confused and doesn’t remember her life without Elliot. Elliot his only loved one person in this world and she is finally within his reach again. But there are a few things standing in the way of the happiness that he and Noah can have together.

I absolutely loved this book! Was a really easy read all the way through in one sitting. Definitely recommend for any romantic out there!

I, unfortunately, did not enjoy this book. I felt like the story was slow and it just didn’t make me want to keep reading. Thank you for the opportunity to try to read it.

This was a great read! It is a second-chance contemporary romance with all of the feels and emotions. The action starts out from the first page and continues throughout the story. There are a lot of ups and downs but they do get their HEA.

L.A. Casey does such a great job of writing this story. There is young love, heartbreak, tragedy, and triumph. There is no shortage of angst The love story isn't perfect and the road is bumpy to the HEA, but it is a beautiful love story. Some may have difficulty with some of the subjects in the book but it is tastefully and well-written. I loved the plot. It has twists and turns and there is no shortage of action. There are strong and wonderful characters. I laughed a lot and my heart broke right along with Elliott and Noah. The connection and passion between Elliott and Noah are palpable. I was rooting for them so hard. Everyone deserves to have a love like theirs.

I love L.A. Casey's books. She is a very talented author. When I saw this book on Netgalley, I jumped at the chance to read it and Lee did not disappoint! The book kept my attention from start to finish. I enjoyed every minute of the journey this book took me on and recommend reading it!

*****ARC generously given in exchange for an honest review.****

A cray story about second chance love, amnesia, looking what what has been missing and loss. This book was a truly emotional story about Noah Ainsley, who was in a terrible accident. When she wakes up. she thinks it is 5 years ago and doesn't remember what has happened in the last few years.

She is looking for the life she once had and the love she knew, Elliot. What Noah learns, is that her relationship with Elliot is over and she is married to another man.


The story plays out as more than memory loss. Noah is dealing with a lot that she can not remember, but learns she is not happy with the life she was living.

3.5 stars I really liked the story, some bits I really enjoyed and the mystery of the story kept me going to the end. I have always enjoyed this authors books so I was really glad to read something different of hers. I would defiantly recommend for a nice easy read. I would say more but I don't want to ruin the story for anyone.

I read other books with similar plots and I find it intriguing and juicy
The book is well written and edited
What I did found unbearable is the drama excess I mean yes a little bit or a lot but here in this contest trope well guys too much
I had pity of their chain of bad luck and I forced myself to the last page
Dear author it is not you it is me
I am not in a mood of a so cursed by drama couple

This is a second chance contemporary romance that brings out all the feels. L.A. Casey brings you love, tragedy, heartbreak but also resiliency.

A suspenseful romance. Elliot saves his ex-girlfriend from a car accident. When Noah awakes from a coma in the hospital, she’s forgotten the last five years, including that she and Elliot had broken up and that she had married another man.

I never got into this book. It never rose beyond formulaic for me. So much time is spent telling us that Elliot and Noah are M4EO, but it’s never really shown. Their original breakup didn’t make a lot of sense. Elliot withholds information from Noah, and it’s a big deal, but at no point did anyone think of consulting a psychologist on how to divulge the information to Noah in a therapeutic way. I never really got a full sense of the characters as complex people.

Also, the first chapter is extremely confusing because all the names mentioned are androgynous names. I needed more grounding on how everyone knew each other before jumping into action.

*this ARC was provided by NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.*

This wasn’t a bad book but I was hoping for more.I was honestly wanting more suspense then what I got. This book was just a lot about Noah and her loving Elliot. That wasn’t a bad thing, I just was hoping for suspense before the 80% Mark especially with how it ended. There was a lot of throwing in Ye due to an accent but then other times it was you. That got a little annoying because it didn’t stay consistent. It would have been different if it came out due to strong emotions but that wasn’t the case for the most part. The plot was really good. A little predictable most of the time but it wasn’t bad. I liked both Noah and Elliot. These were likable and easy to relate too.

I didn't like that the heroine is called Noah as to me that's a male name. I found it off putting to read.

I also didn't like how the author writes Elliot's Irish accent into his speech. I found it distracting.

The book has a few flashbacks but weirdly the first one is Elliot and Noah's first time having sex (they lose their virginity to each other) and then the next flashback is their first kiss? They had a 7 year relationship but the other flashback is to why they broke up. It was because Noah overheard Elliot telling his friend that due to his parents divorcing after such a long marriage he didn't want to get married! They broke up there and then and never spoke to one another again. Noah married someone else and then became distant with her parents and even Elliot's sister Bailey who she was close to. It seemed ridiculous that Elliot hadn't made more effort to try and talk to her and even more ridiculous that they split up after 7 years because he said he didn't want to get married! At this point they're 24. They're the only flashbacks so I didn't really get a sense of how in love they were over the 7 years.

The story starts with Elliot (a Fireman) receiving a voicemail from his sister's phone and it's Noah and all he can hear is Bailey is driving too fast and a garbled message about someone going to kill them. Elliot is called to the crash and rescues Noah but Bailey dies.

Noah wakes up 15 days later from her coma and has lost her memory and thinks it's 2015 and that Elliot is still her boyfriend and that she's still close to her parents. They tell her it's 2020 and that she split up with Elliot and is now married to Anderson but she can't believe it. Anderson been there upsets her so the Dr advises he not visit for a while (which seemed odd to me considering he's her husband!). She asks to see Elliot and from then on he visits her everyday and it's like they're back in a relationship. They don't tell her that Bailey died. Her husband pays her a few late night visits and she tells him how sorry she is that she can't remember but it's obvious to the reader that Anderson has been an abusive husband.

So after 6 weeks, Noah decides her and Elliot will get back together and she'll tell Anderson she wants a divorce. Considering she still can't remember anything it seemed ridiculous that she was just going to divorce her husband who she had been with for 4 years before she waits to see if her memory comes back?! Elliot at this point has told her why they split up but she doesn't care and just wants to get back with him.

I wouldn't say this book is romantic. I didn't really feel the love between Elliot and Noah or any emotion. The story held no emotion considering the plotline. When they have sex again, Noah performs oral sex on Elliot but he tells her although he has slept with other women during their time apart he did not let them perform oral on him nor did he perform oral on them and that he didn't even kiss them! (I find that hard to believe, who wants to be with a man who doesn't kiss you during sex?!). She moves back into the flat they used to share and everything is as it was but then she finds out Bailey died and is hysterical (again, no emotion in the writing) and then Elliot plays her the voicemail she left him when she was in the car with Bailey but as she hadn't seen her at that point for 4 years they don't know why she was with her.

She decides to go and end things with Anderson (Elliot takes her and waits outside). Obviously he is not happy and has drugged her cup of tea then hits her on the head (she has a brain injury from the car accident and a broken leg). When she comes around she remembers everything and that Anderson had been an abusive husband. She had a scar over her eyebrow from a time he put her in hospital (how come Elliot didn't notice this scar and wonder how she got it?) but remembers other times she ended up in hospital due to his abuse and how he alienated her from her friends and family. Then she remembers that she was leaving him the night of the accident and that she decided to ask Bailey (who she hadn't spoken to in 4 years) to come and pick her up but Anderson follows them and that's how they crashed as there was black ice. Then Anderson become psycho and decides they will die together and he will set their flat and the block of flats on fire. Luckily she had been able to record all this on her mobile! Elliot sees people fleeing from the building then rescues her. Anderson is burnt and taken to hospital. Noah ends up with another brain injury thanks to Anderson hitting her on the head and is put in a coma for 10 days.

In the epilogue it's 5 years later. She now has her own florist named after Bailey. They have a four year old son named Baylor (after Bailey) and she is pregnant with their second child and hoping it's a girl so she can call her Bailey! Bit overkill! Also she obviously got pregnant quite quickly after her second brain injury!

Then it's mentioned that Anderson faced trial for numerous offences which added together meant he would spend the rest of his life in prison. Hmm..not sure how his offences would add up to a life sentence (he didn't cause Bailey's death, she was driving too fast on black ice)?

I know this is an established author but this felt very amateurish to me.

I've read several by this author and really enjoyed them. I have read amnesia plots before and this was done pretty well. It's a long slog through all her healing. We are wondering about her husband. He remains pretty quiet for most of book. Hmm? Until he doesn't remain quiet. Some suspense and that's interesting.
We like both characters (not her name!) and the families are great. Takes place in England and the firehouse was interesting and fun.

The synopsis hooked me but in the end this turned out to be very obvious and too over dramatic for my taste.
- I didn't like the main characters and I didn't feel any connection between them.
- the plot twist was obvious and I saw it coming, so there was not much surprise in that area.
- I didn't like how the author wrote Elliot's irish accent.
- This is a second chance romance, but the reason they broke up in the first place was pretty stupid. when i read it and i was like "??? okaaaay"
- the whole Bailey-related names? weird

A well written book with excellent characters and a good story line about relationships etc. which kept me involved until the last page.

Thank you to Netgalley and Amazon Publishing for giving me the opportunity to read this book.

Wow is all I can say.

L.A. Casey is a mastermind. I am absolutely in love with this book. Elliott and Noah’s Love is epic.
It shows that no one is perfect and we all have doubts, worries, and second guess thing in a way that only make sense in our heads. That even the strongest person can feel lost and alone for longer than anyone knows. People can only wish to find a bond as strong as Noah and Elliott have.

I love that this book shows a realistic side of how things can happen in relationships, because they are hard. You have to fight to keep them or you can end up losing.

Fantastic read. Completely recommend.

Another day. Another book finished. Days like these are the best ❤️ #netgalley #netgalleyreads #netgalleyreview #forgettingyou #lacasey #arc #bookstgrammer this one. It’s a bit racey 😂🙈 at 17 two young people in love have their first time. And man. We all wish our first time was that epic 🤷‍♀️ #facts anyway. Fast forward and #Noah is in a car accident. She has no memory of the past five years. All she wants is #Elliot. Her now ex but former first. Greatest. And. All time love. What unfolds in the next several chapters is what happened the last five years. Why Elliot and Noah are where they are. Definitely a quick read. Light. Fluff. #chicklit #booklover #booknerd #bookreview #bookreviewersofinstagram

Thanks to NetGalley for providing an ARC in exchange for an honest review. Opinions expressed in this
review are completely my own.

The plot of the book greatly intrigued me as amnesia stories are fascinating where the main character must piece together not only how they got in the accident in the first place, but also is the life they had really the life they want.
The novel works through Noah’s struggle as she works through her emotions. Does she go with Anderson who she’s married to for the past three years (together for the last four) or does she go with Elliot who is her past love and currently the last man she remembers loving? It took me longer than most novels of this genre to get into the story which surprised me as I loved the concept. Eventually, the story did suck me in as I wanted to see how it was all going to be brought together to create an ending.
One thing I wish this novel did was more flashbacks to build up the characters. As the story is working to help Noah put together pieces of her past, additional moments describing the emotions/thoughts behind these past events would’ve helped to add another dimension to the story and help the reader understand why each character made certain decisions. Without them, some of the choices each character made didn’t make as much sense and you really start to wonder why they did x, y, and z.
I enjoyed the concept and some of the characters, but it was the lack of substance behind the characters that made it difficult to enjoy. Some scenes became very maddening to read as it was hard to understand (1) why no one consulted a psychologist or other mental expert to help Noah yet they all claimed to have her best interests at heart and misunderstandings or an overflow of emotions kept occurring when it could have been aided by outside help and (2) the reasoning behind Noah and Elliot breaking up in the first place to give her a chance to even have Anderson in her life. Those were the main two aspects that I found frustrating, however, I understand that not everyone will care as much about these pieces as much as I did.
Overall, the novel was enjoyable as you want to keep reading to figure out who Noah will choose and the events that will lead her to that decision. Even though, I had some issues with this novel, I would still read more from this author.

This was quite an interesting story and it was enjoyable overall. The characters I had some connection issues with but I couldn’t put this down. There was something about it that kept me in it. While I felt the story did drag a bit at times it did keep me reading until the end. I would recommend this to others to read because it was different for me and I’d be curious as to what others think.

The plot of this story drew me in. Noah wakes up in the hospital with amnesia and can’t remember the last 5 years of her life. She only remembers being with her boyfriend Eli from 5 years ago. But since then they have broken up and she has gotten married. Which none of that she remembers. I liked both characters, there where some sad parts, and also a little suspense. Overall I liked it and thought it was a good original story.

Genre: Romance

The blurb of this book was so enticing that I just had to grab this book. My request was kindly acccepted by the publisher for an honest review. Unfortunately, I didn’t find the book as interesting as it’s blurb, it was a chaotic drama movie that I had to take the effort to read it. Definitely not my cup of tea, but I’m sure you can give it a try if you love unrequited love, romance, cheesy drama lit.

Wow! This book is amazing from start to finish! Once I started reading, I just couldn’t put it down and often found myself wanting to read the end first, just to find out what would happen in the end! I felt like I just needed to know! The blurb is so cleverly written that it literally gives nothing away, no matter how many times you read it, honestly! I thoroughly enjoyed this book and will definitely recommend it! Without any spoilers, I absolutely loved the end!

This book was just breathtaking. I smiled, I was sad, I cried and I laughed out loud. I was emotional, this book made me. I was feeling like I was a part of the story. Like I was in the middle of their story.....

Noah nad Elliott were inseparable, they always thought they would spend the rest of their lives together.

One day Noah awakes from coma and remembers Elliot as the one and only constant of her life at age of 24....four years ago... amnesia caused by bad car accident with brain injury.

What she wasn't able to remember her husband of 3 years. Nothing felt right, not his voice, not his touch, nothing ...nada.

While Noah and Elliot talked for hours and felt attracted to each other more than ever...Elliot was afraid what if she finally recalls what separated them after all?

This book was full of unexpected twists and I must admit I devoured it in just few hours because I simply couldn't stop reading.

Loved it.... this is the type of read that just stays with you. Days after devouring this book I still feel the residual effects of the book hangover I got from this intense read.

What did I like? It’s been awhile since I picked up a book from this author but this book was amazing. Noah wakes up from a coma but her amnesia has her still with her ex from four years earlier. Can anybody say...awkward? She doesn’t remember her husband or that she hasn’t spoke to her parents but she still wants Elliot. So we go on a road to recovery with her not understanding what happened and her faith that she is supposed to be with Elliot and not her husband.

Would I buy or recommend? Yes. Yes. Yes. Book hangover my god. I loved it. Noah is an unfortunate name for a girl but after you get into the story you just don’t want to leave it. I won’t wait a long time to read the next by this author...five stars for a great hangover.

This book was a pretty good romantic suspense, but it could have definitely used more it the suspense! There are a lot of ups and downs emotionally and it ends with a HEA. I liked the writing and the characters a lot!

I was very pleasantly surprised by this book. It’s not one I would normally reach for as romance isn’t really my go to genre. However I am so glad I chose to read this, I loved the character development of Noah and how it flicked between five years ago and present day, especially considering she cannot remember anything that has happened within the last five years. I love her sense of self and how it develops slowly from being so attached to Elliot when she wakes up to gradually learning things on her own again. This book deals with both amnesia and domestic abuse really well and gives us the one thing we all truly want, a knight in shining armour! The character of Elliot was well written and provided enough for us all to fall a bit in love with him. This book was well written, fast paced and easy to read, would definitely recommend!

I started this one but struggled to get into the story and connect to the characters. This story line intrigued me, and I am always a sucker for these types of stories but this one just didn't do it for me. So sadly by the time I reached the 50% mark I decided to not continue and move on from this one

3.5 stars
I was always intrigued by the concept of amnesia and how one will continue the life they have just like a child learning all the small steps in life.
The story was interesting and , even if it felt like at a slower pace at times, it still made me want to keep reading so I can find out what really happened before the accident. By 70% in i already suspected the big twist that was yet to come and I wasn’t wrong.
It’s a story about life and decisions and mistakes and of course, a second chance at love and romance with a twist.
I personally couldn’t get over one thing that’s happening in the way everything comes together and that’s why the lower star rating.


Many thanks to the publisher Amazon Publishing UK for my review copy.

This is such an interesting premise- Noah got into an accident and she (yes, she) was saved by her ex, Elliot, a firefighter, who also lost his sister in the same accident. We find out next that she loses 5 years of memory and within those 5 years, she lost contact with her parents, Elliot, his sister, Bailey, and she married 3 years past. She doesn't remember her husband and only wants to be with Elliot but what happens when her memory comes back?

While overall, I enjoyed this story, which I received from NetGalley, there were a few things that were jarring. The speech patterns were a little difficult to deal with consistently- Elliot is Irish and I assume, has Irish speech patterns? eg, lots of "ye" instead of you). Also, the story played out ok because I kind of had an idea of where things were going but I'm not sure that memory loss really forgives how she treated her husband. It was resolved in a good way though. This story also relies on flashbacks, which are not my favorite way to showcase the past but it was done in a way to continue to build the intrigue so I understand why it was done that way. Otherwise, it was fast moving, well-paced and a good story.

Forgetting You hooked me from the start and I finished it in one evening. Elliott and Noah were great interesting characters who I cared about from the start. I figured out the plot right away but that didn't take away from the story. This was the first book I read by LA Casey but it won't be my last.

I really enjoyed Forgetting You, the new standalone by L.A. Casey. This is the story of Noah Ainsley who awakens from a coma after being in a car accident. She learns that she has short term memory loss. Her memories are of her boyfriend Elliot McKenna – not her husband! The story alternates between the past and the present.

“I thought you’d be my forever person.”

There is so much I loved about this book! It is written with Irish and English dialect throughout. I thought the story flowed. There was a bit of mystery as to why Noah left Elliot and married another man. There was also mystery surrounding the car accident that caused her memory loss.

I found Noah to be honest, emotional and charming even though she was shy. Elliot is fun, driven and a bit dominate. He adores Noah and she him. Family and friends also play a significant role in their lives.

Forgetting You is a sweet and intriguing romance. A great September read! Take a break, sit outside and enjoy!

4.5 stars

#AuthorLACasey #ForgettingYou #Romance #ElliotAndNoah #Sexy #NewAdult #LovedIt

RATING: 2/5 STARS

L.A. Casey takes readers on an emotionally gripping roller-coaster ride from the perspectives of a victim of a car crash and her old Irish flame. 'Forgetting You' showcases the recovery both physically and mentally, and who she becomes along the way as she rediscovers her old memories. I've never read anything from L.A Casey in the past so I was eager to try this one out!

The nature of this sort of plot line itself is the type where the reader can find themselves captivated and immersed if they allow themselves to keep reading, although this is more biased towards me since I love a good mystery/heartache book. I loved learning about each of the characters but I feel as though the author spent more time describing details such as looks/outfits and what was currently happening, rather than focusing on building out each of the characters and their thoughts themselves. I think building out the characters and making Elliot's thoughts more distinct from Noah's would've made their characters come to life more. I think that's what made certain parts of the book drag on longer since the focus on describing what was happening was too big (since a lot of it wasn't necessary).

It also would've been more compelling to see additional emphasis on her rediscovery of old memories rather than amp it all up only at the end with only a small memory near the beginning. I also feel as though Casey built up so much suspense towards what caused the falling out between Elliot and Noah, but the actual reason was pretty anticlimactic. I think putting that discovery earlier on in the book so that Noah could have more time to sort through why that reason made her tick specifically and a more thorough thought process in Elliot's mind in regards to what made him change his mind and do a 180 would've been better.

Another suggestion would be to add some more personality to Anderson in order to make the plot twist more surprising. By focusing so much on Noah and Elliot for the majority of the book, it made it easy for me to guess what was going to happen in terms of the car accident and future events. The author gave too many hints from start.

I definitely wish there was less of a negative emphasis on weight gain and how that was viewed so negatively by the heroine every time it was brought up. While the mini lesson there had to do with body positivity, the comments Noah made to get there weren't positive and could've been worded better.

Nevertheless, I did have a good time reading this and since I have a soft spot for mysteries and romance, this book definitely cured that itch! If you want a light mystery and a book about second chances, then you should definitely pick this up! L.A Casey did a great job capturing

I found this book a real let down. A great premise but with no real connection between the characters shown. A real shame

I am a sucker for a good romance and was very excited to read this one. Overall it was a great story. There was certain parts of the story that I didn't like/agree with but I would definitely recommend this book.

Forgetting You is the lastest second chance romance from author L.A. Casey and it follows the story of Noah and Elliott. When Noah wakes up in a hospital room, she has no idea what happened to her or how she got there. Her brain seems to be stuck 5 years in the past. Noah is horrified to learn that Elliott is no longer hers and that she's married to someone else. Even though Noah is married to someone else, she can't deny the pull she feels towards Elliott. Elliott brings Noah calm in an otherwise chaotic world. Noah has a million questions and unfortunately no answers. When the truth finally comes out, Noah must decide which path is right for her....

Overall, I thought this book was an ok read. I feel in love with the cover and synopsis immediately. I loved the idea of the story and couldn't wait to dive in. Noah's story intrigued me and kept me coming back for more. What was she doing that night? Why was she with Elliott's sister? How did Elliott and Noah break up? And who the heck is Anderson??

However, there were quite a few things that just didn't add in this story for me. First of all, I wanted more of a connection and chemistry with Noah and Elliott. Yes, we saw some flashbacks of their past, but I needed more. I needed to see how Elliott was struggling without Noah; how he still held onto his feelings for her despite her being married to someone else. Speaking of being married to someone else, we didn't really get a lot of answers when it comes to Anderson. I feel like this story could have benefited from a chapter or two from Anderson's point of view just so the reader could get a feel for him and see his connection to Noah. One of the biggest issues I had was Noah pursuing her feelings for Elliott even though she was technically with Anderson. I understand that she went through major trauma, but it just didn't make sense. It frustrated me that Elliott went along with it and that is just a big no-no for me. I also felt like the story resolved itself far too quickly. All this build-up and climax and then the story was just over. 

I wanted to love this book so much, but in the end, it just left me feeling meh. I guess you could say I had quite the love-hate relationship with this book. I think this is a book that may work for some and leave others hanging. I do think this book had some good things going for it, it just wasn't a 100% hit for me. That being said, I'm still glad to have checked this book out.

Ok…I’m going to be honest here. I am a lover of all things L.A. Casey books but Forgetting You was okay.


Noah and Elliot were ridiculously sweet hahaha but the storyline was kind of over the top, kinda cliche and sort of predictable.
It wasn’t bad but it isn’t a book I would gush about with my friends.

Bailey and Noah are in a deadly car accident. Although Noah survives, she remains in a coma for 15 days. This with 26 stitches to her head and countless other injuries.

Noah's parents come to visit - but where is her love, Elliot? (Actually she and Elliot broke up 5 years ago). Her mum painfully tells her this. Noah cannot believe that it is not 2015. Even more surprising is when Noah finds that she is married to a man named Anderson. Noah does not even recognize the man!

An interesting take on amnesia. Great plot reveal and characterization. Recommend.

Many Thanks to Amazon Publishing, UK and Netgalley for a very good read!

Title: Full of emotion

Content:
This book is super emotional and made me cry and laugh and every turn. But there is a little too much drama in it. That made it annoying and kind of ruined it for me. It’s probably for you though. I like lighter, softer, funny romances. As soon as a book strays from my regular, (an exception to a couple of amazing books,) I usually don’t like it.

I wrote this voluntary review in exchange for an ARC copy.

2.5 stars (rounded up because I LOVED ELLIOT!)

This is a new to me author and when I read the blurb I was intrigued. I've enjoyed other books that have tackled this concept, so I was looking forward to seeing how it was going to be played out this time around.

I loved Elliot. He was sweet and loyal and had an adorable Irish accent. From the beginning I could tell he had a good heart and the more I read the more convinced I became that he was put through the wringer unnecessarily. And even then, he continues to be an overall great person.

Which leads to Noah. I won't lie, I didn't like her. Don't get me wrong, I felt bad for what she went through after her accident, but as the story unfolded and I learned what had happened between her and Elliot my opinion of her changed, which ultimately had an impact on my enjoyment of the story as a whole.

All in all, a good love story with a wide range of emotions and a little intrigue to keep you engaged enough to see it through until the end.

When Casey announced the release of this new book, I was ecstatic. I really love the author's way of writing and her stories.
After a disappointment and a slight revival of her last two novels that I read, Forgetting you returns to the abyss of disappointment.

I admit, the synopsis is something we have already had the opportunity to read, but knowing the author, I expected something shocking, passionate and engaging from the story.
So it wasn't... I'm sorry to say it, but boredom overwhelmed me.

The only positive note of the entire book? Elliot!

The story between Noah and Elliot is something sweet and nice.

The book as a whole is well written, flowing and devours itself in a few hours.
Don't expect a crazy story, but an okay story.

I loved the idea of this book although with the introduction of Anderson you sort of knew what was going to happen. I loved Elliot and Noah together and even the bits with Noah and Anderson were intriguing but I thought there would be more snapshots of memories slowly building to the finale. I also though the reason for Elliot and Noahs breakup would have been more. I can't imagine after all that time someone flying off the handle and leaving for good over that, maybe an argument but that did seem a little too much. Overall though, I did enjoy the story

Loved all of the plot twists in this story. Noah and Elliot go through a lot to find love and many hardships. From the car crash and healing that Noah must endure to regaining her memory and learning her past. Elliot dealing with the loss of his sister, the love of his life and learning how to live again. Was a really good story that makes you truly appreciate family and those you love foŕ being in your life.

3 1/2 Stars for this second chance romance!

When Noah wakes up in the hospital with no memory of the last five years of her life, she only wants to see Elliott ... her now ex-boyfriend. Her husband Anderson is crushed when the doctor asks him to leave because they don’t want anything upsetting Noah ... afraid she will lapse back into a coma. Noah will spend the next weeks of her life trying to remember the last five years. Elliott can’t believe that he is getting a second chance with Noah, but is afraid when she learns why they broke up she’ll go running back to Anderson.

Although I enjoyed the book, I didn’t find the secrets all that surprising. And I just didn’t get why Noah and Elliott broke up when they apparently loved each other so much. The book was okay ... I was just expecting more.

I REALLY wanted to like this book, but the saying “less is more” applies here. The general idea... waking up with a new husband and last remembering being with your ex? Sign me up. The only problem was the ridiculous and unrealistic drama throughout the ENTIRE book. It was just over the top and predictable. This was one of those books that if I wasn’t expected to review, I would’ve put it down before I even got 50%.

I’m used to reading mostly romcoms, so Forgetting You was definitely darker than the stories I usually prefer.
Noah has lost her memory of the last 5 years due to a car accident. Throughout the book there is a mystery to figure out not only what caused the accident but also explanations for relationships in her life. The book stays intriguing throughout the story even as various questions are slowly answered.
I personally did not like the vulgar language and steam level in this book. I felt the language distracted me from the story at times. I skipped ahead in a couple of open door chapters.
I also had a problem with her body issues that she experiences from not recognizing her current size. I didn’t like that throughout the entire story she was weak (due to her injury) and there was a strong man to save the day. I hoped that she would have some kind of personal strength to help her recover but instead the story consistently glorified masculine protection. The second half of the book was better than the first half, but this just wasn’t my type of story.
On the plus side, the love interest, Elliot, is an Irish fireman who sounds incredibly attractive and more importantly he seems like a really good man. At first the Irish dialect (only Elliot) was difficult to read, but then I got used to it and it became endearing. There were some obvious clues leading to the ending but it was still fun to guess theories and then discover the truth along with Noah.

*Thank you to Amazon Publishing UK and NetGalley for providing an advanced copy in exchange for an honest review.

This book was easy to get through and it held my interest, but also had a lot of room for improvement. The pacing felt way too unrealistic to me, the storyline was a little too insta love for my liking and the storyline felt choppy and had a lot of plot holes and left me with more questions.

Like, we gather pretty early on that the current husband is abusive and has isolated the MC and made her distance herself from friends and family over the years and really had broken her down. With such an intense possession/control over her, he wasn't really around throughout the story and I felt it lacked build up to the really intense climax of the story.

I also found it odd that Noah and Elliot were rekindling emotionally and even physically in the hospital while she was literally recovering from a serious brain injury. The intent was for it to be sexy, but it felt more awkward and a bit cringey to me.

Overall, it wasn't a bad read but it wasn't great. A lot was going on in a short amount of time and felt a little all over the place. However, it was action packed and still held my interest and the plot did really intrigue me. I also have a thing for amnesia related storylines so that helped me enjoy it more.


Thank you to Netgalley and publisher for this ARC in exchange for an honest review.

This is a book with an amnesia trope on it. That is the main reason it got me interested on this book. It's been a while since I read a book whose main character has amnesia. I had high hopes for this book.

After reading this, I'm half-half on the rating. It has elements on it that I like and some things that I also don't like.

On this story, Noah, our main heroine was in an accident and woke up and forgotten 5 years worth of memories. Apparently, she's now married and estranged on a lot of her loved ones.

Now came in Elliot, her former boyfriend. But Noah still think that he is her boyfriend. This premise is quite exciting for me. But the execution of the plot fell flat for me.

The mystery part is somehow predictable and I already knew where it is going because this book has a dual pov format. The shifting from past to present time affected the 'continuity' of the book for me.

I like the characters but some choices they made contradicts the persona they are trying to portray. Also we have a one dimensional villain that doesn't have that much exposure.

It is still okay but did not blow my mind.

***Thanks for netgalley, the publisher and author for making this available for review.***

Like all of LA Casey's books, Forgetting You was well-written, but unfortunately I didn't find this book engrossing at all. It was tough to connect and relate to the characters, and I felt bored most of the time. The plot twist was also easy to predict.

I truly enjoyed this book. I wasn’t sure since I read a couple of the other reviews before reading this book but it was soo good! This book pulled your emotional heart strings. Definitely one of my favorite reads this year.

You know sometimes you start reading a book, and you just know you’re going to love it, and it’s going to draw you in. This happens to me occasionally, and Forgetting You was one of those stories. I was hooked from the first chapter. I had a good idea which way the story was going to go (and I wasn’t far off the mark). It was such a sweet, emotional read. Noah Ainsley loses 5 years of her life to amnesia following a car accident. This means she doesn’t remember splitting up with her boyfriend and marrying another man. Awkward! Especially when the powers that be don’t allow her husband to visit her, it doesn’t help that Noah still thinks she’s in love with her old boyfriend. Wonderful characters (I just adored Elliot so much), and a couple of plot twists mixed in with a little drama in this wonderfully written emotional romance. An entertaining and addictive storyline. I loved it. I received an advanced copy of this book from the publisher via NetGalley. This is my honest review.

This is likely meant to be a second chance romance but it's not quite. Noah is shocked when she wakes up after a car accident and discovers that she's married to Anderson not Elliott. How did she end up in the hospital? Well, there's a lot of drama there and that's really what this is about- bad marriage, a terrible relationship, and a second chance. No spoilers from me but you might see what's going to happen (or has happened) early on. Thanks to Netgalley for the ARC.

Noah Ainsley can't remember who she's been for the last five years or how she got there after waking up in the hospital. Feeling battered and bruised, the only person in the world she wants to see is her boyfriend Elliot. To her shock, she's married, but not to Elliot, to a complete stranger named Anderson. As Noah tries to remember who she is and what happened, she can't shake the feeling that something is seriously wrong.

I love amnesia as part of a plot, and I think that LA Casey did a great job of capturing the struggle. I also think she did a good job portraying abuse and the secrecy and isolation surrounding it. The only thing I wish the book had more of was interactions with Anderson, he didn't really become a big part of the story until the end, although I do understand it's more of a second chance with Noah and Elliot. Overall this is a well-written book, with good characters, it has second chance romance and some suspense. It's definitely not a light read, but I did enjoy it.

**I received an e-ARC of this book via NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.

When Noah wakes up in the hospital after a car accident, she has totally forgotten the last five years of her life. In her mind, she is still in love with her boyfriend, Elliot, but in reality, they broke up years ago and she is now married to Anderson, a man who she doesn’t even remember. Now Noah is faced with the dilemma of which man to trust.

While I was very intrigued by the concept of this book, the execution was not a win for me. The dialogue was rough for me to read and the way Elliot’s Irish accent was written felt very unnatural. The way the characters behaved also felt very unrealistic. Noah is in the hospital, healing from a serious brain injury and fractured leg, but she is all over Elliot?! I don’t think sex would be high in my mind in that situation. The treatment Noah receives seems silly too—no one recommends counseling or some sort of therapy...no one is worried that she doesn’t remember her husband or that he is being totally excluded from her treatment and recovery?

The whole idea that Noah and Elliot were together for years, then broke up during an argument when Elliot admitted he didn’t want to get married, and then...never spoke again?! Really? Elliot never tried to talk to her again and just let her go? Noah was so broken from that that like a week later, she finds herself in an abusive relationship and quickly gets married and stops talking to her family? I just don’t believe that a mentally healthy person could become that unsure of herself in that amount of time.

There were just too many things about this book that made it a bit too far fetched to be enjoyable. I read the entire book, but quickly figured out the “twist” early on. The climax of the book fell flat. I just never really connected with any of the characters. I wanted to love it, but “Forgetting You” was entirely disappointing.

Sorry but I could not get into this book at all. The storyline sounded good but the writing style is not my cup of tea.

Thank you to Netgalley for my copy.

Forgetting You was my first book by this author and I was very intriqued by the blurb. I was instanty hooked by the story line, though the back and forth from past to present did seem a bit much and a little confusing at times. I do think it may have taken away from the story a little.

Noah wakes up in a hospital following a car accident and has memory loss and believes that she is still in a relationship with Elliot, even though they broke up many years earlier and she is currently married to another man. Even weirder is that Noah is no longer close to anyone in her life, like her parents, and she has no idea why. And to add in more weirdness, Elliot's sister was in the same accident as Noah even though they hadn't talked for years.

I found this book highly engaging, though fairly predictable. I absolutely loved Elliot. I enjoyed the author's writing style and would definitely be interested in reading more of her other work.

This story will grab you attention right from the first page. Suspense, drama and a beautiful second chance love story. Overall a very enjoyable read, I couldn’t put it down!

TW for domestic abuse.

I always enjoy a plot with amnesia. What will they remember? Will they come back to themselves? Mix in two love interests from past and present - sign me up!

I did enjoy Noah and Elliot’s journey. However, I was confused with the lack of substance in the character development. I feel they could have been built up more. I was a little stressed with the lack of resources for aiding the mental health struggles.

Overall, it was an enjoyable read. I will read more from this author. Thanks to Netgalley for providing a copy in exchange for an honest review.

L.A Casey has done it again.
I honestly couldn't love this book more if i tried.
It brought so many emotions out in my.
How she comes us with such brilliant stories is beyond me.
I absolutely loved this book.
Damn near threw my kindle when i finished it !
Didn't want it to end.

I voluntarily reviewed a copy of this book (given by Netgalley)...

3.5 stars

I really really wanted to like this book, but I just couldn’t get past Noah’s selfishness. It’s really hard to review this book without giving away major spoilers so I will try to be vague as possible.

The book starts in the present and flashes to past a few times, I usually dislike that in books especially when it’s over done, but it flowed very smoothly here. Right from the beginning there is a tragedy, Elliot’s baby sister, Bailey, is killed the same car crash that Noah was injured in.

Essentially I did enjoy the story and especially the characters, except for the one shall not be named, but Noah was major issue for me. In my opinion, her actions made her go from strong willed girl who knew what she wanted to a selfish woman who only cared about what she wanted. It just seemed odd for a relationship like Elliot and Noah’s, that portrayed them as soulmates to be so easily decimated. Also, Noah’s ability to move on so quickly and seriously after they ended was a major wtf moment.

Even with amnesia she didn’t really care about much except what she wanted; now mind you things weren’t as them seemed, but Noah didn’t give any thoughts to her husband as she continually tried to seduce Elliot. Even Elliot’s fellow fighters thought it was wrong for them to continue like they were together when she was clearly married. I mean Noah moves in with Elliot and didn’t even file for divorce, her mother had to set up everything.

It just felt off like I knew something wasn’t right, even with her marriage something seemed off, but Noah was just fine doing whatever she wanted and letting her “heart” lead the way.

In the end, my favorite person was Elliot because he was, as Noah called him, a gentlemen and I loved him from beginning to end. Quite honestly, the reason and the way they broke up, kind of made me hate Noah and just want to hug Elliot.

Also, out of all the people to call for help in a dangerous situation you ask the youngest person you know?

It wasn’t my favorite book, but I did enjoy it and I would have rated it much higher if Noah wasn’t so self absorbed.

Um. I'm going to attempt to write this review without giving more than basic spoilers, but there's a lot to unpack. So fair warning.

It... wasn't great. I've read books by this author before, so I was intrigued by the blurb and looking forward to a mysterious, unique story. But this is the hottest of messes. Mixing flashbacks with present day, we get snippets of the relationship between Noah (heroine) and Elliot, before and after things fell apart for them. Noah's husband is part of the story, but remains an afterthought throughout, so if you're not a fan of cheating, then this one won't be for you (more on that in a minute). It's also got body shaming, a manhoe ex, a stupid breakup, and plenty of triggers.

The story follows Noah as she wakes up in the hospital. She's got no memories of the last four years, so when she discovers that she's married, it seems all wrong. Last Noah knew, she was very much in love with Elliot, and now he's not even a part of her life. But the accident brought him back into her orbit, and the feelings between them are as strong as ever. As Noah tries to remember the last few years, she struggles with all of the changes in her life.

This could've been great and it really just... wasn't. We only get little pieces of Noah and Elliot's relationship and the flashbacks are told out of order, so it was difficult to root for them - especially since Noah is married. Not that that stopped her at all. Yes, they sleep together with little regard to the fact that she's got a husband who has declared his love for her and she doesn't remember their relationship. Noah simply moves on without informing him that she's doing so. Noah is also extremely upset to discover that's she's "fat" (size 16), and believes Elliot would be embarrassed to be seen with her. There are some comments made that will likely offend some readers, especially since size 16 is in fact average. And let's not forget the reason they broke up. The reasoning behind it does NOT paint Noah in the best light, but I also hated that Elliot became a manhoe afterwards despite still being very much in love with Noah. Because of course he did. There's no falling in love in this "romance," these two are essentially ready to forget that the last 4 years ever happened. So don't go into this one for the love story, but the drama is also extremely predictable. That all adds up to a book that's not all that fulfilling to read. I appreciated receiving an early copy via NetGalley (and am voluntarily leaving a review), but I can't say that this was a winner for me.

It's been a while since I've read an L.A. Casey book and while it isn't one of my favorites from her, it did make me want to go on a binge of her books so that's my plan for the next few days lol.

I did guess the twist from the beginning but I'm one of those people who don't mind that. The story did intrigue me enough to read it in one sitting though! I really wanted to know if my suspicions were correct lol.

I actually liked the story well enough and I love L.A. Casey's writing, but I just couldn't connect to any of the characters so that's why it's a lower rating. Maybe I've been reading way too many dark romances lately because the romance between the two characters was a bit too sweet at times (I also have no idea if I should name them because I don't want to ruin the twist for anyone).

But I am a big fan of L.A. Casey so I know that this won't stop me from looking forward to her next releases! This year has been a year of rediscovering old author favorites and I'm loving it! I can't wait to go back to her other books!

I loved the story of second chances with Elliott and Noah. This is one story that I feel with always have a special place in my heart. No spoilers. You will need some tissues though. Can’t wait to read more from this author.

I was looking forward to reading this book as I hadn’t read LA Casey for quite a while.
The synopsis was intriguing and caught my interest so I was pleased when NetGalley sent me an Arc to read and review. The story is written in dual POV with flashbacks to main events in Noah and Elliot’s lives. It is a second chance romance but does cover some sensitive issues.

We have a good dramatic and horrifying start with the disturbing voicemail, car crash and the heroic rescue of Noah by Elliot.

Elliott is from Dublin. He moved to London when he was seventeen and met moved next door to Noah. He is a firefighter and comes across as a sweet guy , a real gentleman. We really see his sadness, anger and guilt over the situation he finds himself in after the accident.

Noah finally wakes from being in a coma for fifteen days with amnesia and thinks she back in 2015. The main problem with this is that was a period in her life when she was madly in love with Elliot so desperately clings to those memories and him. She has not only lost five years of memories but she also has no recollection that she is married to Anderson. She is confused and heartbroken at this revelation. While recovering from her injuries she struggles to understand and remember but with the strange comments passed by her parents and Elliot so slowly realises they are not telling her everything.

They dated for seven years after he eventually asked her out on his eighteenth birthday. Loved their various nicknames for each other as it brought a bit of fun into the story and their true personalities. I felt we didn’t get enough insight into their relationship and it left me wanting to know more, especially the details of after they split up.

The story revolves around the decisions made by the young couple and how the results of those decisions changed their lives. They were meant to be so in love and soul mates, even said their love was not like everyone else’s love because they got something special but I felt neither of them fought enough for their relationship. I couldn’t understand why Elliot didn’t make more of an effort or why Noah even considered dating again, if they were so heartbroken over the break up.

While she slowly mends physically and mentally, she has to deal with her strong feelings for Elliot against trying to remember her relationship with her husband. As you can imagine neither guy likes the other so she does’t get much help from them. This all comes to an explosive conclusion when more revelations and memories are revealed.

I was disappointed with the book as I felt it didn’t fulfil its potential and develop the characters fully. I couldn’t get my head round the female lead having such a male name. I felt there was too much Bailey in the epilogue which spoilt the ending for me. The plot twists were predictable so I had guessed everything that was going to happen early on. However, on the plus side I found Elliot’s best friend AJ a real laugh and enjoyed his teasing manner. Also Dr Abara was a great character and I enjoyed his funny banter and protective manner with Noah. If you like hot fireman and first love angst then you will enjoy this book.

3.5 stars! Here are my honest thoughts

Let me start by saying that I am a huge fan of this author. Her Slater Brothers series is one of my favorites to re-read, which is why I’m sad to say that this book was not a hit for me.

Don’t get me wrong, the book is well-written. The blurb and premise were intriguing and I liked the suspense around it. My problem is that the storyline was predictable. I figured out what happened about a quarter into the story- that’s one of my pet peeves. I want authors to keep me guessing and this was too easy to figure out.

It was very lovey-dovey to me and although it had angst, it needed more struggle. Some parts didn’t flow well for me. The characters' actions seemed forced. I loved Elliott, and although I liked Noah, I had a hard time connecting with her in some parts because her reasons didn’t make sense to me.

But, I still love this author and will definitely read her next book.

BOOK REVIEW: Forgetting You by L A Casey

2 stars

I thought this book was a debut but knowing it was from a well established author, I am even more let down. I went into this book after reading Burying Water by K A Tucker which is also about a woman that wakes up with severe amnesia (worse that Noah, the protagonist in this book). I therefore had a very close comparison in my mind with another book.
Unfortunately this book was a disappointment. The writing is okay but the dialogue was so long and tiresome and repetitive. It seemed to me that the author didn't know how to show the feelings of the characters within the writing and had to do it during the dialogue which went on forever, especially in the case of the love interest Elliott. The dialogue was often rather cringeworthy and didn't flow very well.
The storyline could have been really good if executed well. Unfortunately the big "shock" moment was obvious right from the start and so there wasn't anything that surprised me. The story was dual POV with flashbacks which is fine but it made the story crawl and made me frustrated.
I am a character lead reader and so I found this book hard to connect to when the chemistry between the two main characters wasn't there. I struggled to connect with lead female Noah as in my opinion her character focused on so many things that didn't matter in the grand scheme of things.

I don't want to say much more and give the story away but for me so much detail, suspense and chemistry was missing. And for a romance like this, those 3 aspects are really needed.
Sadly I won't be recommending this book to others.

Please note that I was #gifted this book in exchange for an honest review

Love conquers all

Amnesia due to a tragic accident causes her to forget the last 5 years, her ex is her ex, and that she's married to someone else. I'd say that Noah is definitely having a rough patch.

What she does remember is an all encompassing live from 5 years ago that hasn't diminished in her mind. How can you go from married to a one man to professing love for a memory...? Is it because he's her only memory?

No. No it's not. L.A. Casey has a very good reason for Noah not being able to get over the one who got away. Forgetting You is about falling in love again with the one who got away. I am trying so hard not to give spoilers so I will need to cut this short but, Irish, you are dreamy. I think Noah is a lucky lady.

Forgetting You by L.A. Casey is a lovely romantic suspense. The characters are well-developed and easy to relate to. All set in a well-written romantic story that is sure to stake your breath away.

Forgetting you
By: LA Casey

Was it worth the pain!?

Oh these two could not have broken my heart more. Two kind people that love deeply but loose big for no other reason than fear of the what if’s. The author writing is flawless, and the words are so captivating, the plot had so many twists and turns and none that I was expecting, and many shockingly intimate I have become a huge fan of this author. The author writes with so much intensity and emotion pulled from each book it’s felt page after page. Some are quick witted story lines are so perfect and lets you believe you have a front row seat. So being able to read this love story didn’t disappoint. The authors ability to have two separate individuals struggling in their everyday life and try to navigate someone else’s thoughts, needs and desires was intense and gives all the fills.

Authors Blurb: When Noah Ainsley wakes up in a hospital room with no recollection of how she got there, all she knows is that she needs to see Elliot, the love of her life. Then she learns the horrifying truth: her short-term memory has been destroyed by a car accident . She and Elliot broke up five years ago. And now she’s married to Anderson, a man she doesn’t even recognise. In an instant Noah’s world is turned on its head. All she wants is Elliot by her side, but it’s clear Anderson is hurt by her rejection. Can she really have fallen in love with this stranger? Nothing makes sense—and when even Elliot refuses to answer her questions, Noah is left feeling all alone.
But as her memories slowly return, Noah begins to wonder if she’s been wrong to shut Anderson out and wrong to put all her trust in Elliot. The ex she loves and the husband she doesn’t remember hold the keys to her past. And when the truth is finally revealed, which future will Noah’s heart choose?

This book has everything I love in a book. Then you add that it's beautifully written and believable. It is easily a five star read. Written in dual POV my personal favorite this story flows so incredibly well that the next thing you know your 80% into the book and loving every second of it.

It'll break your heart, you'll want to scream with frustration and it'll let you discover that love just might conquer all. The chemistry is steamy and sweet and oh so romantic.

Thanks Netgally for letting me read and review.📚💕

Where to begin...

1. The romance
The sex scene in chapter two was way too early into the story. Nothing profound has happened in the actual story yet to warrant a sex scene even as a flashback. I get its purpose, to show me their oh so deep love for each other even at 17 but nah, this was like getting thrown into the deep end. The romance was built without any finesse. Too “in-your-face”.

2. The plot
You’d think the book would either focus on the accident that caused the amnesia or on the characters properly reconnecting but IMO there was no real focus on either. It was all very boring.

3. The Cheating
I thought I wouldn’t mind cheating when it’s with the one you end up with. Well, I was wrong. Turns out I mind it. A lot, like a whole lot.
I hated that she didn't think of her husband and used the "I don't know him" to basically explain and whine about everything. She still consciously cheated on her husband even though she knew of his existence. She just didn’t really care thus giving me the impression of someone incredibly inconsiderate, amnesia or not, bad husband or not.

4. The main characters Noah and Elliot
I didn’t like either of these characters. Elliot didn’t even feel bad for trying to get Noah back even though she was married. He was determined to hold onto her, not giving a fuck about the husband which I find disrespectful.

I hated that Noah was so dependent on him and trusted him so much when he obviously did something wrong, she just didn't care, she said she needed to get behind the story but she didn't. There was no urgency in her actions.

5. The reason for the fallout
The reason was incredibly stupid. It was especially hard for me to understand because she was so dependent on him after she woke up at the hospital that all she needed was her rock and the knowledge that she loved him. I don’t understand why he wasn’t enough for her back then and needed the commitment. It just didn’t make sense to me.

All in all, not a book I'd recommend.

I have read other novels by L.A. Casey, in comparison to those others this book is below average and extremely predicable. I read the synopsis, took a guess on how the book would play out...100% correct in my guessing. If you have read other books like this before; save your time this one is the same and more boring than those. Nothing groundbreaking.
Thanks NetGalley for giving me an ARC of Forgetting You by L.A. Casey in exchange for an honest review. All thoughts are my own.

This was my first book by this author and it didn't leave a lasting impression. The dialogue was a bit repetitive and the Irish accent seemed forced at times. I love amnesia stories but this one missed the mark. It was pretty predictable and the ending was overkill. I didn't feel the connection between Noah and Elliot so I wasn't fully invested in their story.

I really wanted to like this book based on the blurb, but as I got into it, it was all over the place but at the same time moved slowly. Unfortunately, it was a disappointing and DNF read for me, but that's just my opinion. I voluntarily read and reviewed an ARC for NetGalley.

So I'm a huge LA Casey fan but this book was a little bit of a let down, especially considering the hype since early on in the year. It wasn't necessarily a bad book it was just wasn't very good either, it was on the negative end of okay.
I was intrigued by the storyline at first from the blurb, but honestly the story itself just felt a little flat with over the top drama and overrunning dialogue. Considering this was supposed to be a suspenseful romance the suspense itself was actually missing (I saw the plot twist coming from a mile away) and I felt that there was very little chemistry between our main MCs. I didn't really like or connect with either of them, Noah came across as selfish a lot of the time and I was constantly thinking "what the hell are you doing" with a lot of her decisions. Finding out the reason they actually broke up was also very anticlimactic, I was just like seriously.... thats it?

I really really wanted to like this book, especially because I'm a lover of amnesia romances, but unfortunately I have to chalk it up to another 2020 disappointment.

Thank you Netgalley for the ARC.

It’s kind of a jumbled mess. The flashbacks don’t really make sense in the order they’re in. There is #CW for cheating, domestic violence, fat shaming..

Noah and Elliott are the MCs but even though Noah is married when they reunite, they sleep together. Her husband is abusive so I don’t know if this is a justification or not because she has memory loss and doesn’t remember that.

I really loved this book. So much happens over a relatively short period of time, and honestly, I didn’t see much of it coming. When Noah woke up from her coma, I was shocked along with her family and Elliot that she had forgotten five (!!!!) years of her life. It was so wild that she forgot the little fact that she was married to someone that wasn't Elliot. It became apparent to me throughout the book that Elliot and Noah were absolutely soulmates and that something in their relationship had gone terribly wrong. I was on the edge of my seat waiting to find out with Noah what happened in their relationship and their time apart to lead to her marrying Anderson. I knew that there was something off about him, but I didn't expect him to be actually psycho crazy and to be abusing Noah. I felt incredibly sorry for everything that she faced through that relationship and happy to see her free from that toxicity and abuse in the end of the book.

I was soooo intrigued by this story because I really wanted to know what happened to Noah and Bailey. I fell for Elliot and his love for Noah. Really enjoyed how the author wrote his accent, it was fun. What I didn’t enjoyed much was that there was too much unnecessary detail for me right when the plot was in its climax and I was desperate to know what in the world happened and I kept getting information that honestly I didn’t care much about. But overall it was a fun and entertaining read.

Sadly, this book didn't work for me. It felt contrived and excessively dramatic. It felt like a lot of effort trying to keep up with an amnesia storyline, and flashbacks, and she feels she loves her ex-boyfriend, but doesn't really question whether she should be with her husband and then, when everything unravels, all that effort in keeping up with the story just doesn't pay off: it turns out their reason for breaking up wasn't that monumental after all and the husband's storyline turns out to be too convenient. So, it was twisty and dramatic, but ultimately not satisfying.

I received an ARC in exchange for an honest review.

This was my first read by this author and wow, she'll be on my TBR pile now.
This story had all the 'feels'. I don't know why so many reviews are bad, but that's just an opinion and here's mine.
The two main characters had a history, one that was not really over and we'll find out why as the story progresses. Noah has amnesia after a tragic accident giving her and Elliot a second chance to start over. She doesn't know her husband or the last 5 years of her life. You just know there is more to this story, I had an inkling and couldn't wait for the story to unfold as we learned the truth. It was a slow burn, the chemistry sizzled, the characters real and the excitement at the end had my heart racing. Great story and I will look out for more books by this author.

I really wanted to like FORGETTING YOU by L. A. Casey, the premise was intriguing but I just couldn’t invest in any of the characters.

The book begins in the present with flashes to the past, it is well done and flows smoothly which I find is not always the case. The book begins with a tragedy unfolding and still I did not invest in the story.

The characters were not fleshed out enough for me and the plot seemed formulaic.

It was not one of my favorite books, but I enjoyed it enough. Just left me wanting more depth, more character.

Forgetting You is the first book I’ve read from this author; it was an ok read, I struggled to get through some parts as I felt like the dialogue just kept going and going unnecessarily. Noah’s character got under my skin, there was not much I liked about her. But my saving grace was Elliot who was the perfect gentleman and hero of the story.

Noah and Elliot had a young love and had what seemed like an unbreakable relationship early on in life. Noah however, unexpectedly broke things off for very selfish reasons and they didn’t speak again for several years. Until one night, Elliot gets a call about an accident that involves Noah. She wakes up in the hospital with amnesia of recent years, throwing her back to a different time in her life when she and Elliot were still together. As she struggles to heal physically and remember the last years of her life and figuring out how and why she and Elliot are no longer together, the details start to unfold.

There is a level of mystery, although, it was horribly predictable and not much of a surprise to me. Still, reading through the drama that ensues kept me entertained for the most part. I found myself rooting for Elliot throughout the story; I wanted him to get his happily ever after; it just so happened to be with Noah. I really tried to like her, but it just didn’t happen. I found her selfish and weak and her dialogue to be so juvenile.

This book has captured my attention from the first page! I can promise, I won't be "Forgetting You" L.A. Casey, when I am searching for new reads!!
This was an emotional roller coaster, a story you won't forget anytime soon!


When Noah Ainsley wakes up in a hospital room with no recollection of how she got there, all she knows is that she needs to see Elliot, the love of her life. Then she learns the horrifying truth: her short-term memory has been destroyed by a car accident . She and Elliot broke up five years ago. And now she’s married to Anderson, a man she doesn’t even recognise.

In an instant Noah’s world is turned on its head. All she wants is Elliot by her side, but it’s clear Anderson is hurt by her rejection. Can she really have fallen in love with this stranger? Nothing makes sense—and when even Elliot refuses to answer her questions, Noah is left feeling all alone.

But as her memories slowly return, Noah begins to wonder if she’s been wrong to shut Anderson out—and wrong to put all her trust in Elliot. The ex she loves and the husband she doesn’t remember hold the keys to her past. And when the truth is finally revealed, which future will Noah’s heart choose?

L.A. Casey strikes again!!! This author storylines are absolutely explosive and the best thing is that Irish Accent she has in some of her books. I absolutely love it!!! Also the funny scenes have me laughing so hard which automatically puts all her books on my top favourites shelf.

This one was no less. It was a standalone contemporary second chance Romance that I loved a lot! The Story was amazing and so were the characters. Noah has been in a terrifying accident. She has lost her memory of the last 5 years and the last thing she remembers is being with her soulmate, Elliot. He is the boy whom she has known right from her childhood and has always loved. They were childhood sweethearts and we're destined for each other.

Imagine her surprise when she gets to know that she broke up with him years ago and is now married to another man , Anderson. She has no idea who he is and just wants to be with Elliot.
Elliot can't imagine his luck. Noah has been the girl who he has always loved. That is until he messed it all up , forcing her to marry someone else. He never got over her. So now when she looks at him with love in her eyes again , can handle that? Win her again? Not to mention her marriage status. Anderson sure isn't going down without a fight.

This book's was absolutely amazing! It has that funny parts and those amazing twists that this author has in her books which make them so freaking amazing! A definite top read of mine and a must read for all the contemporary romance lovers out there!

Wow, where do I start? Forgetting You, written by LA Casey, an author I’d never heard of but in passing, I saw this book online, read the blurb and thought it sounded like a book I’d enjoy. I’m always hesitant to do this as I’m rather a fussy reader and new authors to me are sometimes hit and miss.

This story encompasses the lives of Firefighter Elliot, girlfriend Noah, their parents, work colleagues and medical staff as Noah enters the hospital in critical condition after a car accident and wakes up not remembering the past 5 years of her life, including her marriage to Anderson.

This book had angst, heart, suspense and all the feels of a perfectly complicated love triangle as Noah struggles to piece together the pieces of her past and the accident.

I absolutely loved this book and I’ve purchased more books by the author now. A definite 5 🌟 for me!

Many thanks to Netgalley and Amazon Publishing UK for a free copy of this book in return for an honest review. All opinions of this book are my own.

Forgetting You by L.A. Casey is a romantic thriller. Noah Ainsley wakes up in a hospital with no memory of the last few years. Noah does not recognize her husband, and wonders why she is no longer with Elliot, the love of her life. I enjoyed this book, but it was slow at times, and predictable. I will be reading more book by this author. I recommend this book if you are looking for a light thriller.
I received a complimentary copy of this book. Opinions expressed in this review are completely my own.

This story is a about a second chance love. Elliot and Noah are reunited on dramatic event . They will have to learn to forgive themselves and forgive the other and most important , listen to their hearts.

Elliot McKenna hasn't heard the voice of the woman he loves in four long years. So when Noah Ainsley leaves him a voicemail his heart soars... until it is shattered beyond repair...

Noah has been is a terrible accident, and wakes up from a coma with amnesia of her last five years, to find her life has drastically changed... and she has no idea why....

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Forgetting You was a heart-wrenching, second chance romance that will make you believe in the magic of everlasting, true love. After an accident that leaves her mentally missing the last five years of her life, Noah works to put the pieces together of just how her life became so unrecognizable to her, and why she hasn't spoken to Elliott, the man she has always loved in YEARS. 

When Noah wakes up in the hospital, not only with the loss of her memory, but also the news that she apparently hasn't spoken to her parents in years, she and the love of her life have broken up, and she's married... to a man she can never remember meeting. 

Elliot's life changed immensely due to Noah's accident, but when she awakens, he realizes the second chance he has always wanted has finally arrived. Holding vigil in her hospital room and spending as much time with her as he can, they slowly reconnect after the years they've been apart. But, while Noah is still in the dark about what happened in the five years she has forgotten, the truth will slowly come out... and may send her running right back to where she left off..

This was a very good story. Heavy and emotional, and causing more than a few tears, the love story between Noah and Elliot was vastly beautiful, and very, very complicated. 

I received a complimentary copy of this book for my honest and unbiased review.

I thoroughly enjoyed this book. Great characters, great storyline and dramatic twist at the end. I did guess who the good guy was very early on but I wasn't expecting the level of drama at the end, so I was still pleasantly surprised. I won't spoil the ending for anyone but it was intense, great ending. Good levels of suspense throughout. I read this book so fast, couldn't put it down because I needed to know what happened next. I was drawn in from the start. I quickly developed strong emotions towards the characters. Fantastic book.

3.5 to 4 stars - This was an enjoyable, intriguing read.

"I loved him so completely that it scared me. He was someone who could break me without even trying."

Noah Ainsley and Elliot McKenna fell in love at 18. Over a decade later, they are no longer together and Noah is married to another man. However, after a horrific car accident, when Noah wakes up from a coma in the hospital, she's lost the last five years of her life: she thinks she's only 24, happily in love with Elliott, and her husband is a complete stranger to her.

"I'll always come runnin' when ye need me...You're my person."

This story was romantic yet traumatic. Noah and Elliot were so in love with one another. Obviously something happened that broke their relationship and Noah struggled to remember anything, often to the point of hurting herself, as she was suffering from a traumatic brain injury. Elliott was such a great guy - yes, he made a mistake years before and neither of them handled it well, but there's no denying his devotion to Noah. Noah's husband, Anderson, was an enigma, and we don't really learn much about him, although we get little snippets and clues about him. There was also great camaraderie and banter between Elliot and his fellow firefighters. I loved hwo they supported him and each other. Overall, a great read.

This is your typical L.A.Casey book and her style of writing. Maybe that is why I didn't find it so amazing and great because it is so alike her other books. This second chance love story was predictable and had no surprising twist. The characters are developed. I did have some problems and frustration with Noah and her actions especially staying in relationships in which she stays and for so long. I expected so much more and better.
I volunteered to review an ARC of this book for NetGalley

This is hard because I really like LA Casey's work and I even enjoy super angsty drama, but this was just too much for me. In order for me to really enjoy a book I need to like the characters and I just couldn't get into them.

Thank you to Netgalley and Amazon for giving me this ARC in return for an honest review.

I thought this book was beautifully written. I really enjoyed the character development and how the relationship is shown in this novel.
I found that I was intrigued from chapter 1 and that 'Forgetting You' made me so emotional that I had to have a box of tissues next to me!

I think it's a really unique and intriguing storyline which makes it extremely interesting and gripping; people like to read something they haven't read before! I was so glad I managed to get an ARC for this and I would highly recommend it!

My only criticism would be that some scenes were lacking excitement which mean that - and I really do only mean a very FEW scenes - it could be a little slower paced in parts than I would have liked. But this didn't take away from the novel as a whole and I thoroughly enjoyed it!

This sadly did not grab me as much as I had hoped. There was dramatic emotional rollercoaster, but it made it all a bit tiresome rather than actually emotionally. The dialogue was long, tiring and did not add at all.

Its been a while since I have read LA Casey's work and it was like coming home. Her writing always manages to draw me in and give me everything I love, laughter, emotion, steam.

Noah and Elliot, i loved these two from the beginning and could feel the sizzling chemistry that was brewing between them, even though they had been apart for 4 years. Soon as Elliott gets the call that Noah needs him he drops everything and is there for her.

I felt every emotion that played out between these two, the push/pull the ups and downs. They were perfect together. The glimpses into the past were well placed and flowed beautifully with the storyline. I will be honest though I got quite frustrated with Noah for making the decision she did all those years ago but she did redeem herself. She obviously just needed the reset switch.

Well done LA Casey on another great read.

This book was the perfect escape. It was lovely and fun. It was my first book by this author and I will definitely be on the look out for more!!

Story about a girl who wakes up and thinks it’s 4 years before, doesn’t remember her husband but remembers her first love....a good plot and story, perhaps it went on slightly too long and the descriptions of the love between her and her first love a bit cringey and graphic. A decent read though

In my opinion this book was an okay read. I liked it but in the end the story was predictable. I have seen movies where the MCs meet with an accident and lose their memory, which leads to them to either forget or/and remember their old/new love so I hoped that the author would bring something fresh to the storyline since the blurb sounded interesting but there was nothing new about it. The plot line lacked a backstory, especially with regards to Noah and her marrying Anderson soon after her break up with her 'soul mate' Elliot and who she doesn't remember after the accident that causes her memory loss. The reason for Noah and Elliot's break up was pretty lame as well...they could have easily sorted out the misunderstanding through dialogue. I also felt that Anderson's character could have been more developed but instead he remained only a character type throughout the book.

I received an e-Arc of the book from Netgally, the publishers Amazon Publishing UK/Montlake and the author L.A. Casey. The publishing date of the book was 6th October 2020.

I received an eARC of Forgetting You by L.A Casey from Amazon Publishing UK and NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. Thank you!

I give this book 1 star. Unfortunately, the description was more intriguing than the book itself. There was too much drama and the book overall outlandish.

This book was a bit meh for me - I didn't love it & I didn't hate it but it wasn't exactly a page turner

3.5 stars

With thanks to NetGalley for the ARC of this book, all opinions expressed here are my own.

Forgetting You by LA Casey was the first book I read by this author and it was just an okay read. It follows the story of Noah and Elliott, specifically their reunion after 4 years apart. Noah has been in a car crash making her forget the previous 5 years. There is insta love because of this - as they haven’t fallen out of love yet. They sleep together despite her being married. In fact her parents support this cheating. She continually fat shames her “new” size 16 body as it’s not fit/skinny like she remembers. Even though she had reasons to be leaving her husband I just couldn’t hope for the happily ever after here.

An average 3 star read.

This book is not really my cup of tea. I didn't really like the male main character and he exhibited many "funny" behaviors that I find manipulative.

Complementary copy given for honest review and opinion. The character building was good but slow at times. I felt there was a lag in the story at times but in all it was a really good romance. I would recommend this book.

A well written but predictable story. The likable characters improve the somewhat tropey storyline. I did enjoy it, but its not one that I'm going to rave about to my friends.

Forgetting You is told from dual points of view from Noah and Elliott. They were friends and then a couple when they were younger. Now 5 years later Noah wakes up after a car crash and she has some memory loss thinking it is 5 years in the past. All she wants is to see Elliott. She is married to a guy named Anderson, but she doesn't remember anything about him.

As she is healing Elliott is there and hoping for a second chance. Anderson is there telling Noah how they met and their history. As Noah is recovering she still has feelings for Elliott and she learns why they broke up in the first place. She still wants to be with him, but needs to figure out what to do with Anderson.

While recovering she finds out things she forgot from the past 5 years. Things that could save her life. Will she end up with Elliott or with Anderson?

Um livro agradável de ler, porem achei a personagem feminina um pouco chata e sonsa . O mocinho foi o que fez a história valer a pena

I received a copy of the book from Netgalley to review. Thank you for the opportunity.
A sweet as sugar love story, perfect for a lazy day read. The writing is good and the story nice although very predictable.
On the whole a good book.

This was my first L.A. Casey novel, and it was an enjoyable book, but I was hoping for a little more suspense based on the description of the book. The second-chance romance follows the story of Noan and Elliot after Noah wakes up in a hospital room with no memory of how she got there. With a brain injury that leaves her stuck five years in the past, she discovers that she is no longer with Elliot and that she is married to someone else.

Overall, I thought the plot was good, a little predictable at times, but not in a bad way. The characters of Noah and Elliot were likable and easy to relate to. I wish there was more of a backstory to Anderson so that you could root for him a little more. It seemed that there was all this build-up between the main characters, and then it just ended.

I wish there was a little more substance throughout, but overall, I’m glad that I got a chance to read this, and I look forward to seeing what else L.A. Casey writes.

Thank you to NetGalley, Amazon Publishing UK/Montlake and L.A. Casey for an advance reader copy.

I am a fan of L.A. Casey. It has been a while since I have read one of her books. After reading the blurb for this book I have to have it. I can’t imagine waking up and having no memory.

Noah has been in an accident that caused her to lose the last five years of her life. All she remembers is her childhood sweet heart and friend Elliot. She doesn’t remember that years ago she broke up with him and married someone else. Elliot has to live with the fact that he messed up and the relationship ended, but is it really over between these two?

I really enjoyed this book.

So there was a lot I liked about this book. For starters, I liked that the author slowly built to a reveal of the memories. Yes, it was a little predictable where it was going, but compared to the many romances and women's fiction books that are just all exposition, all the time, it was a welcome change. I rather liked the idea of starting over, forgetting the painful parts of a relationship--it was an interesting twist on the amnesia trope. But there was also a lot not to like--the discussion of the heroine's weight gain went to a cringey place, for instance. It would have been fine just to have our heroine struggle with waking up in a body that is not in the shape she remembers being in (and that does happen in the book). But she frets about it to the hero, who then goes and discusses it with all his mates at the bar, and when one friend expresses admiration for her bigger curves, the hero punches his friend in the face. Just... why? This is the guy we're supposed to root for? And then there's the whole issue of cheating. Even though the husband is horrible, the heroine doesn't actually do anything to end their relationship before shacking up with her ex-boyfriend, which is just not right, amnesia or not. But I do think I would like to read more by this author.

Thanks to the publishers and NetGalley for the opportunity to review a digital ARC in exchange for an unbiased review.

Amateurish writing for me. Melodramatic and I didn't like the MC romantic relationship, the time frame for many of The events especially at the end seemed a little bit odd. Overdramatic and nothing new to one oversaturated genre. The reason for the MC split very common behavior these type of heroes have in this genre too and the heroine always forgiving after almost no groveling.

Thanks to Netgallery for the book in exchange for my honest opinion...

I love L.A. Casey but not this book. IDK but I think the reason that they broke up was stupid. I feel that if you're with somebody for 7 years you want to dress in like that. Because you hear a conversation with a man you been with for seven years and you don't like what he says you're going to break up with that person??? it just doesn't make sense. also if it was true love I feel like Elliot would have tried to get her back. I also wanted more of their backstory more into what the relationship was like before they broke up I felt like if the author would have shown more than love story I would have rooted for them more. I also hate books where people die unnecessarily
I don't I feel like Bailey didn't need to die.

I have always been a fan of L.A Casey. Noah and Elliot story was well written and the author clearly did research amnesia.
It was an ok read for me.

Forgetting You by L.A. Casey was another excellent read from this author. She is actually on my short list of authors I consistently go back to for a great read!

This book was so entertaining. I was drawn into the story from the beginning and was involved until the end. The characters were complex and interesting. I found the story to be well paced and engrossing throughout the whole book. I was invested in the couple throughout the book and felt all the emotions through both the highs and lows of the story.The side characters were such an integral part of this story as well. This is the love story i needed to read at this time. If you want an entertaining and well written book this is it for you

This is the story of Noah Ensley who wakes up one day in a hospital and has no idea how she got there. At this moment all she wants is to see the love of her life Elliot. What she doesn't realize due to the car accident that lands her in the hospital with her short term memory is gone and she is actually married to Anderson. However he is not someone she recognizes and his feelings are really hurt because all she wants is Elliott by her side. Talk about your life being turned upside down. Nothing makes sense to her and she questions of she really could have fallen for Anderson., and Elliott refuses to answer her question thing just seem to be crumbling at her very feet. However when her memories begin to return she feels like she has been wrong about everything by shutting out Anderon and holding on to Elliott. But the ex she loves and the husband she can remember hold the key to the past. When the truth is finally revealed which path will she choose.
I liked these characters and felt for all of them. But poor Anderson had the worst of it. My heart broke for him so many times. This book is her full of angst and I really struggled with it at times. I feel like I needed some passion and explosive moments to pull me through.

I wanted to love this book so much. The plot and storyline sounded amazing! Once I started reading though, it was all too familiar of a plot to a book I had read before.

It wasn’t a bad story by any means, I was just disappointed in the outcome.

This book was different of what I expected, and definitely different from other books that I've read by this author... Well, except for the Irish guy and slangs... That wasn't new to me on her stories.

I haven't read lots of amnesia's books, so I was curious about this one.
It was interesting to see how it evolved, but it was much more closer to the drama side than anything else, including romance.
Yes, she wakes up from her coma after a car accident forgetting her past 5 years, including her husband.

She thinks she's 5 years younger and still dating and very much in love with her ex boyfriend... AKA: the hot firefighter who never forgot the one who got away.

Almost the whole book happens in the hospital, and although it may sound boring, it was really addicting to see the tangled mess been untangled one knot at time.

There wasn't much mystery around what happened to Noah or who was to blame for, so I guess it was just okay.

Predictable but still interesting.

Love this! Love this! Love this! Love this! Love this! Love this! Love this! Love this! Love this! Love this! Love this! Love this! Love this! Love this! Love this! Love this! Love this! Love this! Love this! Love this! Love this! Love this! Love this!
