When I saw this was an amnesia trope, I had to read this. I love the angst of two lovers being torn apart by a tragedy and one suffers the loss of memories. Of course, I only enjoy this in purely fictional worlds. But I enjoy how authors being the couple back together after such tragedy.
And Corinne Michaels had me on my tippy toes this entire book because it was also suspenseful with the main question… who did this to her?!
Brielle wakes up in the hospital realizing the last three years of her life is just gone from her mind. And her brother was murdered. Friends and family must keep their lips zipped about her life and not influence her healing, thoughts, and memories so the case doesn’t get thrown off.
But Brielle is finding out bits and pieces of her life and it’s frustrating that nothing makes sense. It’s a second chance romance and also a suspenseful mystery played out. I couldn’t stop reading.
Secret romance. Brothers best friend. Who attacked her and why? Who killed her brother?
It’s all a large turner with an HEA.

Man this one was beyond a tear-jerker and I am so glad that Spencer and Brielle found their way. They had such a hard time and their love survived it all. Can't wait for Emmett's story!

This book had me eating out of the palm of its hand. I was totally hooked by the story! Truly loved the relationship as well. Those early chapters of Spencers? Dear lord the way my heart broke for him.

Look no further if you want a book that is going to be a tear jerker form the opening pages, is filled with chapter after chapter of moments when I cried my eyes out and then significant moments where humor was laced with happiness. This will be a book that will stay with you long after it is complete and one you will put on your re-read list and hold onto Spencer and Brielle's love story time and time again. Corinne Michaels once again pulls her readers hearts out of their chests, stomps on it for a while and then slowly and with a beautifully written storyline puts them back together again page by page. This deserves so much more than 5 stars!!

This book broke my heart, then put it back together. It was so heartbreakingly beautiful and I was completely invested right from the start. The characters, the dynamic and banter, the chemistry and angst was all done so well it made for an all consuming read. I couldn’t put it down.
Brielle experienced something horrific and Spencer had to sit back and watch while she tried to remember everything, along with him and their love story. The way he was there for her to support and encourage her while hurting so deeply was a testament to the deep connection and love he felt for her and it was truely beautiful. There was such a roller coaster of emotions throughout this and it was written so well.
I love the dynamic between Spencer, Emmett and Holden. Their banter was so fun and I’m looking forward to Emmett’s story next!

Oh man this book was like it was written for me. I love a well written amnesia plot.
Brielle (Brie) was attacked and her beloved older brother Issac was killed. She is the only witness. The story starts when Brie wakes up with no memories from the last three years from her head injury after the attack.
“Selfishly, we all want things, but doing what is best for the other person is what love is.”
I smile a little, looking up at him. “Like helping your best friend’s sister try to remember her life?”
One of her brother’s best friends is there to help her try to remember what happened. She’s always had a crush on Spencer. She finds an engagement ring in her apartment. She doesn’t know Spencer was the one who gave it to her.
This book is angsty. ANGSTY. Spencer and Brie were hiding their engagement due to age difference and the fact she’s his best friends little sister. So his best friend dies, and his love is injured and he can’t be there as her fiancé but only as a friend. Then she wakes up not remembering and asking for her ex boyfriend.
I am desperate for her to just see the truth in front of her. I love her. I love her so much, and I am desperate for her. To have her, touch her, love her and yet, she still can’t come back to me.
This book has everything I love about an amnesia plot. Loved it, if you like a romantic suspense heavy on romance and angst and light on suspense - this book is great. I’d recommend if you liked Repeat by Kylie Scott.

This was my first book by Corinne Michaels and oh my goodness it was so good! I cried so much, it was so emotional and heartbreaking. I don’t often reach for an amnesia trope but this was done so well that I loved it. I definitely cannot wait to read more from her!
Brielle lost her memories of the past three years after an attack that also left her brother dead. Spencer is her brother’s best friend and has always been around. It starts with just Brielle’s pov until she begins to piece her memories together and then we get Spencer’s pov. His pov is HEARTBREAKING. Because they can’t tell Brielle anything so they don’t influence her memories, Spencer remembers it all. He wants nothing more to tell her everything but he knows he can’t.
I loved being able to piece together the mystery around her brother’s death and why she was involved as the story progressed. Spencer was a broken man who felt like he never deserved love and for him to struggle with not being able to tell Brie everything, destroyed me. Spencer and Brie completely stole my heart.

I don't know where to start with this review. This is my first book from Corinne and it was written so beautifully.
I was hooked from the beginning until the end. The suspense, the romance, everything about it was perfect. The way Corinne writes is amazing, her words are beautiful.
Brielle and Spencer own my heart at this point. Reading their love story and how it grew once again without Brielle knowing it had happened before was so good.
I finished Help me Remember in a day! That's how good it is.
I would recommend this to anyone in a heartbeat, I adored it so much and I am so looking forward to reading more of Corinne Michaels books.
