Hi, book buddies :-) How are you doing? If you like suspense and amnesia romances, you're in for a treat. J. KENNER has written a great story that I recommend.
MY OPINION
Believable and intense.
One of the themes I find gripping in romantic novels is amnesia. And here it is at the epicentre of a plot of suspense, espionage and a love story laced with longing and drama.
Mason is an operative whose undercover mission has gone awfully wrong, but the first thing we know about it is when he's suffering delirium and then pops up out of nowhere. His mind, twisted and half-empty.
The contrast with the heroine of the story is stark as she's also an agent who's been waiting for her husband to come back from his too-long mission. Now, her dream turns into a devastatingly unexpected nightmare.
I loved the authenticity and intensity of their first encounter face to face. Though the process of Mason wandering through his muddled memories is frustrating, it is also rewarding as he and Denise slowly circle closer together. The suspense part deals with secret codes and life-threatening dangers that reach a boiling point full of smart thinking, bloody action and a villain as evil as Captain Jack Randall (from TV show Outlander).
Phenomenal all throughout. From James Bond style espionage to emotional romance, this is one read with a 100% satisfaction rate.
After surviving a troubled childhood, Denise can’t believe that she’s blissfully married to her partner and soulmate. She’s confident that not even Mason’s long-term, deep-cover assignment will shake their bond. And she certainly doesn’t anticipate that when he finally walks back through her door that he’ll have no memory of her, himself, or their time together… When Mason is pulled out of an operation gone bad, all he knows is what he’s told — that he was a covert agent, that he has information vital to national security somewhere in his head, and that they can tell him no more for fear of burying those hard-fought secrets even further.
They tell him nothing else; not even that the beautiful woman who makes his heart beat faster is not just his partner, but also his wife. The secret she must keep wrecks Denise, who wants only to return to Mason’s arms. But despite the desire that still burns hot between them, she can’t tell him who she is—or that she’s carrying his child. But when dark forces threaten both their lives in order to retrieve the information trapped in Mason’s mind, it’s not their past that will be tested, but the tenuous new love now burning hot between them. You don’t want to miss this sexy, suspenseful amnesia romance!
JK has been praised by Publishers Weekly as an author with a “flair for dialogue and eccentric characterizations” and by RT Bookclub for having “cornered the market on sinfully attractive, dominant antiheroes and the women who swoon for them.” A six time finalist for Romance Writers of America’s prestigious RITA award, JK took home the first RITA trophy awarded in the category of erotic romance in 2014 for her novel, Claim Me (book 2 of her Stark Trilogy) and in 2017 for Wicked Dirty in the same category. Her Demon Hunting Soccer Mom series (as Julie Kenner) is currently in development as a television show. Her books have sold over three million copies and are published in over twenty languages. In her previous career as an attorney, JK worked as a clerk on the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals, and practiced primarily civil, entertainment and First Amendment litigation in Los Angeles and Irvine, California, as well as in Austin, Texas. She currently lives in Central Texas, with her husband, two daughters, and two rather spastic cats.
