This title and synopsis immeadietly caught my attention and I am so pleased to share my review of this delightful, touching book. Thank you Rachel for organising the tour and Boldwood books for the arc in exchange for my honest opinions.
Synopsis
Alice McClaren have spent two wonderful years building a life and a home and making plans for a future together. But when Alice is involved in a car crash, Callum fears that he has lost her forever.
As he sits by her bedside he promises he’ll do anything if only she’ll open her eyes…
But when Alice does finally wake up, she has absolutely no memory of being in love with Callum or the life they once shared. In fact, all she remembers about him is how incredibly annoying he once was! How can she have forgotten him if she really did love him so deeply?
Callum is determined to prove to Alice that what they had was special, so he makes her a deal: he’ll recreate their first ten dates and make her fall in love with him all over again!
Alice isn’t sure Callum can fill in all the gaps in their story.And what if going back to the start only means the end?
My Review
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
"Fate wasn't just a cruel mistress, it was a vindictive bitch"
Imagine losing a whole chunk of your memories, the memories where "friendship " develops into love and you have no idea how you came to love someone. Where your heart remembers, like muscle memory how to feel but your head just hasn't caught up yet and you feel like you're living someone else's life.
This was absolutely sweet, I'm in love with Callum and I don't often do 'book boyfriends' I adore the thought, effort and whole heartedness he put into his relationship with Alice and the way he recreated their first dates togerher to try to help Alice regain her memories.
The banter between Alice and Callum is something else. They are friends/frenemies to lovers, and their knowing each other goes all the way back to childhood, and the history they share can't be matched.
I could relate to Alice wanting her independence and hating relying on people and recovering after an injury. This was a moving book, that made my heart twinge.
If you enjoyed 50 first dates or The vow, where characters have to show love and start over , get a second chance then this is the book for you. I haven't read any of Rachel Dove before, but she's certainly on my bookdar (book radar) now.
