Not my favorite Lynsay Sands

I've read a bunch of Sands' books in the past and really enjoyed them. But this one just wasn't for me. The book description doesn't really make this clear, but the book has secret that's kept from the Metra initially. She has amnesia and assumes he's her husband and everyone decides that for her own good, they need to let her believe that. This big secret type story line is my least favorite trope and I just didn't ever recover from the annoyance it caused. Wish this would have been clear from the description.

I won this book in a Goodreads giveaway.

I’ve been waiting for Aulay’s book since we very first heard about his scar! I think that was book 3? I already had a soft spot for him because of that tragedy and how it changed him and his life. I really like him! He’s sweet and charming. He’s protective, brave, and loyal. He honorable, even with temptation right there. I like Jetta too, and I thought her losing her memory was an interesting twist!

There were also multiple parts that were really funny. I actually laughed out loud several times.

Sands just keeps killing it with this series. The romance is good, there are actual storylines and other events besides two people falling for each other.

I really enjoy all of these books. There’s always romance, mystery, and a strong FMC. They are fun and fast reads. I love seeing the difference between all of the brothers as the books develop and how they mostly are still in each book and not just forgotten once their story has been told. Will definitely continue the series.
