She forgot her husband. Someone's got some re-wooing to do.
Martha, plucked from the sea with no memories of her past, has spent three years in the quiet solace of an abbey, finding joy in gardening and speaking her mind with disarming candor. She's settled into a peaceful life, until a dashing visitor turns everything upside down.
His startling news? She's not Martha, but Agnes Barrett, Countess of Wentford. And shockingly, his wife.
He’s a stranger to her. She’s his everything.
When Grant first met Nessa, her fiery spirit captivated him instantly. But after believing her dead in a tragic accident, he mourned her as irrevocably lost, until whispers led him to a remote abbey. There, alive and vibrant but without a flicker of memory, stood his wife.
When she woke up, their love story had to start over.
Now, faced with the woman he never stopped loving—who doesn’t remember him or their shared past—Grant sees a glimmer of hope. If death itself couldn't keep them apart, surely winning her heart again should be within reach.
Can love truly be rekindled from the ashes of forgotten memories? Watch as Grant fights to reclaim his wife's heart in a tale where memory fades, but love endures.
What does it mean to be married to a stranger who you once loved?
BREE WOLF is a USA Today bestselling author and award-winning word wizard, who is rarely seen without a book in hand or fingers glued to the keyboard.
This book follows on from How to Live Happily Ever After but can be read as a standalone as all the necessary back story is covered in the prologue. This is a romantic story of a fated pair who are ripped apart, with neither knowing that the other is alive. The torment is much worse for Grant as he mourns the loss of his wife everyday despite having remarried to give his daughter a mother. Nessie on the other hand has lost her memory, with the entirety of her past gone and it is only through the efforts of her father who never gives up hope that she is found. With his second marriage declared void, Grant takes steps to protect her by persuading a reclusive friend to marry her but is reluctant to tell Nessie of her existence and perhaps lose her again. And so begins a quest to get Nessie to fall in love with him again, whilst keeping secrets that have him walking on thin ice! The discovery of each secret furthers Nessie’s doubts, as does a letter that throws doubt on their previous relationship. Can Nessie learn to trust and fall in love for a second time?
An enjoyable story and a second chance at a forgotten love. Grant and Nessa are wonderful characters, an entertaining journey back to their happily ever after.
This book is the delightful conclusion to Grant and Nessa's story. Seven years have passed since Grant and Nessa married. Three years ago, Nessa was in a horrific carriage accident and was swept out to sea and presumed dead. A year ago, Grant's mother convinced him to marry Eugenie, a young debutante, to be a mother for Millie, Grant and Nessa's young daughter. This book is the perfect blend of romance and a mystery of what happened to Nessa! WONDERFUL!
I really enjoyed this book. Each of these is a stand-alone based on a different fairy tale, this one being Sleeping Beauty.
The main characters, Nessa and Grant are devine, each with their own strengths and weaknesses and I loved them both. And then there is the daughter who absolutely grabbed my heart and didn't let go.
There is the horrid mother-in-law and a lovely, caring father/grandfather too as well as some other interesting characters.
The mystery of Nessa's loss of memory is solved and, oh yes, a second wife enters the picture too.
The story just flows out of Bree Wolf's pen and it conjures up pictures as one read it. So this is a definite recommend because I loved every second of it!
Shining light in a dark world, that is what Charlie Lane does. Just as Cora’s writing brings passion to the ladies of the ton, Charlie’s writing brings me such a glow of hope and happiness. This story has so many underlying messages but the greatest of those is hope. Cora has stuffed all hope so deep down that she can no longer believe in its existence. She loses herself in her midnight readings, her scandalous writing as a way to feel wanted, to feel loved but buried deep is that hope to be loved for real. Watching Liam chase his wife clear across the countryside builds a hope in the reader, that they will find their way. Their attraction always held something more but both of them needed to let themselves be free first so they could build a real love not based on perception and obligation, but based on truth and desire. The cat & mouse chase of this story built such a delicious anticipation, the constant interruptions providing a levity to the situation that was funny in its absurdity. How difficult can it be to be alone with one’s wife? Apparently very difficult indeed. The surprise visit of a certain Brute and his mischievous wife was the perfect cherry on top. If anyone could inspire daring, it’s Sarah & Xavier. My grin just about split my cheeks when I realized who they stumbled upon. This story will give you hope that everyone deserves and can find a happy ending of their own.
Another winner from Charlie! Lady Isabella acts as a maid in a hotel, to obtain gossip to assist debutants with avoiding fortune hunters and the like. Fitzhugh sees the "maid" running about his hotel, but finds she doesn't actually work there. He is attracted to her and sees her, as a Dukes sister, as an asset to his business as well. He goes to her brother asking to court her, unbeknownst to Isabella. The attraction between the two is almost instantaneous, but as in all good romances, takes time to cultivate. Definitely recommended!
I enjoyed the banter between the main characters. The heroine is trying to make sure her brother marries someone worthy of him so she infiltrates a hotel. The hero needs a wife to be more acceptable as a business owner. They come together for these reasons, but they may get more than they bargained for. This was a cute story.
I really loved this book, but of course I’m in love with each and every one of this author’s books. In this one I must confess that I related to Isabella so much! She’s somewhat of a control freak like me. And I totally understand that it’s hard to let it go. Actually, Rowan needed a woman who took control of his life and wrenched him from the shadows in which he was much too comfortable. He needed to be managed and he was! I really loved the side characters as well, because in Lane’s books they are always as gorgeously fleshed out as the main ones. And I especially loved the ladies, the old friends of the late Duchess, who are always helpful and funny. A gorgeous, five star read!!!
This has been such a wonderful series, and this has to be my favorite story yet! Isabella and Rowan are pure delight! The storyline is charming and the clever dialogue and banter between those two make for a most entertaining read. She is a Duke’s sister and he, a successful hotel owner, yet nevertheless a commoner. He could never be accepted by her world, but their hearts say otherwise. I was rooting for them all the way, and enjoying every page of their romance!
