Top 5 Reasons Everyone Has a Secret Amnesia Wish
By Sara

You can forget about that douche who dumped/cheated
on you. A chance
to forget about your lousy ex? Heck, yeah. Sign me up now!
You can forget about all those bills left over from
the holidays. The
new toys are broken or out of batteries. Your new sweater got put in the dryer
and is too small for a Chihuahua . And you’re pretty sure the Chihuahua ’s to blame for your missing left
glove too. But the credit card bill refuses to give up on those regrettable
must-haves. If you can’t make them go away, at least you can forget about them
for a while…or forever.
You can forget about that relative who totally ruined
your holiday too.
Speaking of the holidays, you can’t stop replaying that scene in your head
where little Timmy ran around the house with your vibrator and Uncle Sicko
suggested you to give a family demonstration. Pass the brain bleach, please.
You can ask for help re-learning all those things
you were too embarrassed to admit you didn’t know how to do. Let’s face it. You have no clue
how the TV-Blu-Ray setup in your living room works. All you know is it has more
cords and remote controls than a spaceship. But now you have the chance to learn
how to operate it, so you can pop in While
You Were Sleeping without your significant other rolling his eyes. Plus, you
need to see the movie again because you don’t remember anything about the
story.
You get to fall in love again for the first time. There’s nothing quite like
falling in love with that special someone you plan to spend the rest of your
life with. But a few years into happily ever after, the relationship becomes
bogged in the middle of a giant game of keep away. Dirty dishes, laundry, the
day job, bills, and kids all work together to keep the spark that drew you two
together away from you. But throw in some amnesia, and now you have to discover
who this person is that you’ve pledged your life to. And that matters a lot
more than a few mountains of laundry. Plus, the toe-curling, heart-pounding,
cheek-flushing thrill of new love is an experience that will reward you every
day for years to come.
Since I don’t recommending knocking yourself over in the
head in hopes of sampling the rewards of amnesia, go for the vicarious
experience, courtesy of Gwen Fairfax in A Bride Worth Fighting For.
Blurb:
If she remembers the past, they
won’t have a future.
Gwen Fairfax awakens in a hospital, deluged by stabbing
head pain and unable to remember anything about her past, especially the man
who claims to be her fiancé. A trip to the Wiccan Haus is her only hope to
discover the woman she used to be, understand her mysterious dreams about a
resort, and fall in love with the man she’s supposed to marry.
To stop his stepmother’s land development schemes from
ruining the natural habitat he’s dedicated his life to preserving, Tucker Wilde
is willing to do anything, even pretend to be engaged to the woman his brother
left at the altar. But he isn’t prepared for the sweet, vulnerable woman to
tempt him at every turn until he longs to give in to the temptation.
The more Gwen gets to know Tucker, the more she’s certain
he’s a man worth remembering. But if the Wiccan Haus heals her memory, he’ll
have to fight to keep his bride.
Excerpt:
“This week is for you, Gwen, not me.”
She shook her head as they stepped into the elevator.
“It’s for both of us. Just because you’re helping me get my memory back doesn’t
mean you should have any less of a vacation.”
If he wasn’t enjoying himself, why would he want to share
his life with her? Up until dinner, his complete focus had been on her, but his
eyes didn’t shine when he looked at her the way they did when he talked about
his conservation efforts.
Just because they were engaged didn’t mean their
relationship had been perfect before she’d lost her memory. By paying attention
to what he loved, she could strengthen their bond or discover if they were
right for each other at all.
As the elevator crawled upward, she glanced at him, unable
to believe he wasn’t right for her. Not only was she comfortable with him,
their chemistry compounded with every passing moment. The real question was if
she fit with him, but she didn’t know herself well enough to answer.
The elevator doors opened, and Tucker placed his palm
against her back as they exited. A few steps later, they stopped in front of
her room. “This is you,” he said.
“Yeah.” Now what? She had no idea how to wrap up the
evening and no past experience to fall back on. “Would you like to come in for
a cup of coffee?”
He raised an eyebrow. “Is that a euphemism for something
else?”
Oh gosh. She might not have a memory, but she understood
what she’d implied. She forced a laugh to cover her embarrassment and deflect
the sex offer she definitely wasn’t ready for him to take her up on. “Apparently,
you’ve gotten engaged to a clichéd and trite woman. I fell asleep so fast
earlier, I didn’t notice if the room had a coffee pot.”
His lips twitched. “I would never get engaged to a cliché.
Don’t sell yourself short.”
She rubbed her temples. If he’d been attracted to
something unique and special about her, she’d like a clue what that thing might
be. She enjoyed getting reacquainted with him, but getting to know herself
proved far more unsettling. “Okay, no coffee and no euphemistic coffee. Uh,
good night?”
“A goodnight kiss?” he suggested.
She dropped her gaze to his full pink lips. How many times
had those lips kissed hers before? She wanted to remember, but she couldn’t
handle the intimacy of a full, deep kiss when who she was remained elusive.
Rising on her tiptoes, she brushed her lips over his
cheek, scratchy with his customary beard stubble. The touch warmed her,
inviting her to linger and explore his face. Instead, she pulled away.
