really liked it

I love Denise Hunter and love amnesia trope. It was an interesting concept, whether a couple would fall in love again if her memory didn't return. I just loved Jonah. Such an example of patient, selfless love. I would challenge anyone not to love him. Though there were times I was ready to the shake the book, wanting him to push Lauren a bit more. The reason I gave it a four-star rating was because I had a hard time getting on board with Lauren for quite a while. She was pretty awful to Jonah and stuck to not wanting her memory back to where it was almost not believable, or bordered on selfish reasons. I appreciated when her backstory got explored more and helped me understand her better, and I feel it helped make the story feel more complete. Overall, if you like sweet romance and enjoy sweet, lovable guys... this is the book for you.
