GRR Reviews Remember by Izabelle Jardin
Remember is an interesting novel in that it's actually more of two novellas in one, with an amnesia thrown in between for complications.
Leah was utterly fascinated by green... and Connor's green eyes are perfect for capturing her. But Leah's family had some history with Connor's family that remained a secret... and even as they knew they probably are not good for each other, they fell for each other anyway, even as they discover some trouble secrets about each other... and themselves. When Connor was injured in 9/11, and lost his memory of Leah, will Leah be able to help him recover their love?
When German author uses 9/11 as a plot device it's... interesting. Nothing really wrong with it, just... odd. The book is also a bit weird. Most romances start with the two protagonists separated but drawing ever closer. This one managed to do it TWICE, have them separate but come together, then use his injury to separate them and bring them together AGAIN. While not bad, I don't think this is one of those must-reads.
