❀ ARC REVIEW ❀ A FIVE MINUTE LIFE BY EMMA SCOTT

Remember us...when I can't.

TITLE: A Five Minute Life
AUTHOR: Emma Scott
GENRE: Contemporary Romance
PUBLICATION: May 16th, 2019
Synopsis
Remember us...when I can't.

Thea Hughes has five minutes to live.

A car accident stole her parents and left her with the second-worst documented case of amnesia in the world. She now has only minutes of experiences, of consciousness, of life…before her memory is wiped clean. The once effervescent artist with a promising future is reduced to scribbling with pens and paper, living an empty, quiet life, three hundred seconds at a time.

Jim Whelan is on autopilot.

A foster kid shuffled around the system since birth, he’s lived his entire life without knowing love…and it’s taken its toll—until he learned to fight back, carry his armor, and keep his head down.

Working as an orderly in the Blue Ridge Sanitarium, deep in Virginia countryside, Jim looked up…and found Thea.

When Thea has the chance to break free of her five-minute prison with a risky, experimental surgery, it could lead them both to an epic love they never thought possible… or one that could require the ultimate sacrifice.

#KeepMeSafeKeepMeWild
God how do you write up a review for perfection!?! You can't!! You just do what I did and shove it on your favourite shelf of 2019!! This book was beyond amazing!! 

I don't know how Emma Scott does it but she just goes from strength to strength, leaving us the readers spell bound in her wake. 

A five minute life took me by complete surprise, within a few pages and I was eating out of the palm of this author's hand, devouring her written words, like the speed of lightning I’d finished it in record time, faster than I’ve ever read before, I absolutely loved the journey she took me on. I can’t convey how much I loved this story. For me this was a fast burn, that bitch got its claws into me right from the beginning..

This made my rainy day Sunday perfect!! 

Utterly unique, utterly unputdownable, utterly captivating, utterly and wholeheartedly in love with this book!!

More than once my heart broke..
More than once I got tears in my eyes..Remember us...when I can't.

Two years ago at the age of twenty one the life Thea knew ended, just like that, in a blink of an eye she was never going to be the same again. Lost in darkness. An unheard voice screaming to be heard. She has the second-worst recorded case in history of amnesia. 

Her long and short term memory are shot to hell. She's got no memory of her life before the accident, and no memory of her life now. 

She'd lost so much..She used to attend art college and was considered one of the most talented with a bright future in front of her. But the thing is..She just doesn't know it. She doesn't remember anything..

You see Thea Hughes has a brain that resets itself after every five minutes. Now she's living at Blue Ridge Sanitarium where long term permanent brain injury patients reside. 


She has a few minutes of consciousness then she has to start over. She resets. 

“How long has it been?” I ask the beautiful man.
“Two years,” he says in a low voice, almost a whisper. 
“But the doctors are working on your case.”
He’s right. The doctors are working on my case. That’s one of the Things I Know.
My name is Thea Hughes.
There’s been an accident.
The doctors are working on my case.”

And like a broken record those questions get asked many many times throughout the day. 

Enter twenty four year old 'Jim Whelan' he's the newly appointed orderly at 'Blue Ridge Sanitarium'

Jim's first meeting with Thea was so heartbreaking, so soul crushing, so utterly unfair. Along with Jim's my heart got shattered. But slowly as their tale unravels the author puts me back together again. I've tried to make this review as spoiler free as I could. This book right here is a must one click, go in blind, and I hope you love it as much as did.
