Synopsis
My name is Peyton Lane, and I have no idea who I am.
Six months ago, I woke from a coma with no recollection of anybody, anything.
My family tells me that I’m a good woman, that I’m loved. It seems I’ve lived a full, rewarding life, but I would give all of it up in a heartbeat to remember who I was.
My mind is a blank slate. Every moment in time wiped clean.
But there is one thing I can remember, something I haven’t dared to tell anyone about—a mysterious oak tree, a red ribbon, and a vision of drowning.
I know the answers I seek lie buried at the bottom of a lake. And that’s why I’m here in South Carolina. The memory I have is something I witnessed…
So I wonder what it would feel like to remember…remember who I was, but more importantly, remember what I did.

My Review
As soon as this went live off I went to #1clicking and never looked back. This grabbed me as soon as I started it, falling under this authors spell as she weaved a tale of 'Snow White & her Prince Charming' effortlessly making me fall in love with these characters and this storyline.
Peyton is suffering from amnesia after a driver ran her off the road. No one is giving her the trust she seeks let alone her own mother. Moving out of her parents house, she's drawn to a run down house with an oak tree and a red ribbon tied around it, something about this house and that tree call to her but she can't recall what.
We have front row seats as Peyton tries to piece pieces of an unfinished puzzle together to get the fuller picture.
Only one man can help her piece it all together and that's her new neighbour Cayden Coachman, as soon as these two meet it's like their souls are weeping, their connection is profound. Deeply emotional.
This was such a unique, unputdownable kind of read, I never wanted it to end. The only reason why this wasn't a 5 star read for me is that I thought the ending felt a we bit rushed, other than that this is a must read.

I love amnesia stories so I'll definitely be adding this to my list. Great review! xo
