A wonderful amnesia/ reunited story.

Annie and Dominic met, fell in love and married with a few short months. She was only eighteen and ten years younger and he had contracted to a three year job in the Middle East.

As the date of his departure drew closer, their relationship grew strained. Until the day they had a discussion on children and Dominic said some really thoughtless things that Annie took the wrong way causing her to walk out on their marriage.

The day of Dominic’s departure arrived. Annie had been gone almost two weeks when she realized that she couldn’t let him go without seeing him. In her haste to get to him she was hit by a speeding car that left her in a coma and took away a chunk of her memory. The chunk of memory that had everything to do with Dominic.

Five years later, Annie has recovered physically from her accident but that chunk of her memory is missing. Then she see’s a man in a restaurant and faints in shock. She doesn’t know him in person, but he is her dream lover come to life.

Annie finds her way to Dominic’s house. The reunion is hot until Dominic asks her why she left him and informs her that she is his wife. That is the start of a heart wrenching story of two people who, in spite of their love for each other, have to learn to trust again before they can have their HEA.

A lovely and enjoyable read. A lot of angst during and after they worked to regain the h’s memory. Both characters are really likable. I had doubts about the H initially, but he redeemed himself. I loved Helena, the h’s doctor and friend. She was wonderful and compassionate. She loved the h and wanted her happiness.

This book is worth the read.
