BOOK REVIEW- CHASING MEMORIES

  

Forevermore, Book 2 Lucas Morgan wants to know the cause of the hit-and-run accident that killed his grandmother, and he’s certain the truth is locked inside the head of India Leone—an interior designer apparently suffering an all-too-convenient case of amnesia.Determined to either trip her up in a lie, or wait for her memories to return, Lucas offers India a job at one of the luxury hotel properties he’s developing. He never thought he’d wind up falling for the woman at the top of his suspect list.India isn’t so sure herself how she ended up at the wrong place at the wrong time. Until her memories return, how can she possibly move on with her life? The police say she’s innocent, but too many questions linger.Desperate to get away, she seizes Lucas’s offer, never expecting to fall in love with him. Or that he would be keeping secrets that could not only break her heart, but cost her life.
Warning: Contains a woman caught between her heart and a gap in her memory, and a man waiting to pounce on any hole in her story. Never expecting that all that waiting will lead to some pouncing of a different kind…  AMAZON 4 Stars

As if losing your memory isn't bad enough.  As if, being in a horrific accident where someone died isn't enough.   As if an ex-boyfriend who doesn't want to stay an ex, isn't enough.    There are other strange things happening around India.  There is also the strong attraction to Lucas that she can't fully explain, and he's also fighting that same attraction.    Because now that they are working together on a project, they have to keep things strictly professional.  He's her boss on this and she really needs this job.  Its just too bad Lucas has kept so many secrets from India.  You just know they are going to bite him in the butt at the worst possible time.  There were several people who were on my "suspects list" as I read this story.  The author gave plenty of twists and turns to the story and she had me guessing all over the place.  I finally settled on just one person and I was right, but the motive?  No way was I right about that, not even close.  It was a stunner, at least to me.  Anyone who has ever read a review by me knows I freaking Love that!  The twists, the turns, the red herrings, and the surprise at the end!

On a side note:  Thinking, "Not going there", is a good phrase when someone is blocking off their internal thoughts. But, it just felt like it was a little bit overused, it became a little distracting a few times.  


I received a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.
