She doesn't remember her name
But she knows her child is in danger…
When Remo DeLuca stumbles on a mysterious, injured woman,
the EMT springs into action to save her. Celia Poller doesn't know who she is
-- the only thing she's sure of is that she and her child are in danger! With
so many unknowns between Remo and Celia, it's no time for love, especially when
someone wants them both dead and gone…
Good book with plenty of action and a fast-moving
romance. On his way home one night, Remo stumbled onto a car accident with an
injured woman. Things get complicated when she can't remember who she is, just
that she and her son are in danger. Something about the woman touches him
deeply, and Remo is determined to protect her and Xavier.
Celia isn't sure why but she trusts Remo from the moment
she meets him. Though she can't remember the details, she knows that it is
Xavier's father who poses the greatest danger. She's reluctant to involve Remo
in her troubles, but she'll do anything to keep her son safe. The last thing
she expects is to be attracted to him.
I really liked Celia and Remo as a couple. Remo is an
awesome man. He is kind, compassionate, and has a huge heart. His caring is
evident from the moment he met Celia and Xavier. I loved how he believed her
fears immediately and promised to take care of them both. I also enjoyed his instant
connection with Xavier. The two of them were cute together, and it was easy to
see that Xavier had made a place for himself in Remo's heart. Celia is
incredibly strong though she doesn't see it herself. She escaped a dangerous
situation and managed to keep them safe for five years. There are sparks
between Remo and Celia from the start. Remo is something of a loner because of
things that happened in his childhood. His few attempts to share those events resulted
in him feeling more alone than ever and unwilling to risk it happening again.
But something about Celia makes him want to trust her. I ached for him as he
opened up to her and felt his vulnerability as he waited for her reaction. Celia
has trust issues also after being so long in hiding. She also worries about
trusting her judgment after making such a big mistake with Xavier's father. The
intensity of their situation ramps up their connection as Celia and Remo depend
on each other. The ending was great, and I loved the epilogue. Remo's big
moment was sweet and fun.
The suspense of the story was great, with nearly nonstop
action from the very first page. Celia's fear was evident from the start. Her
missing memories were a complication, but she knew enough to realize that she
was in danger. Because of his past, Remo was in a place where he understood and
believed in her. As Celia and Remo struggle to stay ahead of the people who are
after her, Celia's memory slowly begins to return. The intensity increased as
each new memory brought her closer to knowing the who and the why but also
brought the danger closer. The final confrontation had me on the edge of my
seat as everything finally came together. I especially loved how the women had
an active role in their rescue and had to laugh a little at the comments they
made at the end.
