This book was cute! Definitely an interesting premise (dude gets amnesia and never meets his online sweetheart, then they cross paths and blah blah blah), but the amnesia part was insane. First of all, sorry to that man for his injury. I almost wish we focused more on his development coming back from that than his relationship. 

It was okay. I wouldn’t say things we rushed, but the sex caught me off guard, and then the ending was like this the max? WHO would end a book like this and I also was just like so it’s fuck this

gambling ring

or something and this house that’s on its last leg of life like there’s a bit much to unpack here.

This was a decent read. It was pretty low angst in terms of the relationship but the context it was set over was kinda intense (

permanent amnesia

). 

Overall the characters were sweet and I enjoyed them and their story. The plot wasn't too beefy but kept me just entertained enough to keep listening. 

Nice to see a 6' tall woman as the lead. Also nice to have some dyslexia rep.
