If you have any suggestions for the trope of pregnancy+amnesia, PLEASE SHARE!
I don't know why I didn't come to know about this one before, because I love both the tropes and their combination in a Harlequin is definitely like a dream come true for me. The other books combining these two tropes that I have read are:
1. The Tycoon's Pregnant Mistress by [a:Maya Banks|24978|Maya Banks|https://images.gr-assets.com/authors/1490067531p2/24978.jpg],
2. Protecting the Pregnant Princess by [a:Lisa Childs|332359|Lisa Childs|https://images.gr-assets.com/authors/1598970886p2/332359.jpg],
3. The Virgin's Shock Baby by [a:Heidi Rice|786456|Heidi Rice|https://images.gr-assets.com/authors/1314400224p2/786456.jpg],
4. Her Forgotten Husband by [a:Anne Ha|1412465|Anne Ha|https://s.gr-assets.com/assets/nophoto/user/u_50x66-632230dc9882b4352d753eedf9396530.png], and
5. Hers to Remember by [a:Karen Lawton Barrett|719666|Karen Lawton Barrett|https://s.gr-assets.com/assets/nophoto/user/u_50x66-632230dc9882b4352d753eedf9396530.png].
This is the fourth book of Carla Cassidy's that I am reading, and the third book of The Recovery Men Series. The title is what got my attention, followed by a blog entry, which hilariously mentions the 'uncomfortable looking' cover picture.
Lucas Washington did a dangerous job as a recovery agent. He and two of his ex-Navy SEAL buddies had started Recovery Inc., where they recovered not only high-value items but high profile people as well.
But this time it was a favour for a friend, to recover a two-year-old Buick. This had an amazing and totally unconventional introduction I've ever read in a Harlequin Intrigue!
Because at the back of the Buick, he finds a blue-eyed, very pregnant, and scared blonde with a head injury. Someone who doesn't even remember her own name, much less what happened to her.
Thirty-three-year-old Lucas didn't want to get entangled in her drama but he couldn't leave her. So, he takes her to his home where his nurse sister Loretta could patch her up.
Jane Doe is eight months pregnant. Lucas doesn't want to believe that her amnesia is real. And the very real attraction that he feels towards Jane doesn't help matters, especially when he knows that he's no family man.
The events in the book take place over a period of one week, where Lucas and Jane try to find clues regarding who she is and her whereabouts. There is a cult involved, and a dangerous family member that she doesn't remember. But other than that, it's more melodrama and less action, which didn't capture my attention, nor was it successful in keeping it.
