Lauren (laurenjberman) Week #8: MC with Amnesia
Candle In The Wind by Sally Wentworth by Sally Wentworth
188 Pages per GR

#110 on the Amnesia Themed Romance list

Finished: May 9, 2015
Rating: 3 Stars

Review: Not bad for an early category romance.
The first 1/3 when Sam awakens with no memory and she and her husband, Mike, have to survive together on an uninhabited island is great. Mike and Sam have great chemistry and their romance is intense.
Unfortunately, the rest of the book does not live up to the beginning as Sam learns who she really is and the conflicts begin emerging. There are one or two irritating moments as Sam is torn between the men in her life and even though there is a HEA, the ending is rather abrupt.

Don't Look Back
3 stars
The main character in this story has amnesia and is set up for art theft.
I think because the story is so short, the author telegraphed the guilty party from the beginning of the book so there wasn't a lot of mystery surrounding the main plot of the book.
I think the book could have done with being longer to develop the plot more.

The River Leith

5 stars

Boxer and amnesiac Leith Wenz, doesn't even remember his lover Zach. when he come to from his coma Zach is just introduced as a Friend, because the doctor doesn't want them to force Leith's memories. It is hard on both, but harder on Zach because he can't help but being hurt because Leith doesn't remember their love. This has great angst and I love them both and Leta keeps making me love her books.

Blaze of Memory (Psy-Changeling, #7) by Nalini Singh
6/14/15 5★

Review
This is such an amazingly powerful book and hands down my favorite so far in this series. I had forgotten about Dev and Katya's story. This one was almost completely about the Forgotten and how the Psy embraced Silence, though we do get visits from our Changeling friends. Since this is my 2nd time reading it I was able to follow the storyline much better and didn't feel so lost. But the true power of this story lies in the relationship that develops between the head of Shine and the Psy scientist who was tortured by Ming and sent to kill him.

Reckless (Blue Collar Boyfriend, #1) by Jessi Gage

2 stars
Review: This book was not my cup of tea. I was not aware it was a paranormal romance. I like paranormal romance but did not enjoy this. It was too bizarre. The MC has amnesia and is haunting the person who caused her accident. The only time he can see or hear her is when she is in his bed. Also he has dreams as her. It was very convoluted, hard to follow, and weird. I wish I would have chosen another book.

Review:
Started out a little confusing for me, but I hadn't read any of the series before, so I blame myself. Interesting story with the Elite Ops and amnesia situation. I loved the characters. I will read more of this series.

Solo (Grave Diggers MC #1) by Carol Lynne
4 stars
Solo, a member of a biker gang meets Blue on night in a bar. They spend the night together and then Solo finds out Blue is a cop.
A story with a difference. For once the Biker is the good guy trying to keep drugs away from schools. Together they work together to bring down the dealers.

Two Wrongs Make a Right by Ann Everett
Rating: 5 stars
Revie: Tremendous! Laughed and loved this so much. A cute story that felt so real I swear I either know Molly/Quinn and Dak or I want to. I can just imagine the water cooler talk at Galaxy! Loved the cats, too...and I swear mine understands me, too. Great best friends. Five thumbs up, as I borrowed others so I could match the number of stars.

Review: I loved this book. It has been on my wishlist for a long time. The MC is a female who is joining her brother's on tour. Mistakenly she gets on the bus of a hard rock band known for their womanizing ways. She can't back down from a bet so she has to stay on their bus for 1 week. It was a great read. It will make you laugh and make you cry. I am reading the second book in the series now. I would highly recommend this book if you like rockstar romance.
