Quick Review: More Than Memories Review

More Than Memories

Synopsis
Can she love him if she can't remember him? Molly Anderson returns "home" to a town she doesn't remember, hoping it will spark a memory. She runs into Trent Williams, a Ridge City police detective, and something else definitely sparks. 

He wants to know why she left town, with her parents, but without a word to anyone. She doesn't remember that life. She can only tell him she knew her parents briefly before they died . . . or were murdered, she's not sure. She hopes regaining her memory will help answer that question. 

Trent has his own secrets, but they have a mystery to solve. As they work together and Molly meets their old friends, she realizes their relationship went deeper than memories. In fact, she grew up in Ridge City, even though her parents had said they lived there just a few years. How could she have forgotten her lifelong friend and love? Can she love him again if she doesn't remember him? There's also the possibility that she did something awful -- and maybe that's why she's afraid to remember her old life.

Molly knows she wants him now, but the truth might destroy their love.


Synopsis

I was put off initially by the cover of this book and the synopsis wasn't convincing either but I thought it was only 77p, why not? I read many quick reads such as this one every once in while to relax before I delve into a meaty literary read and the reason I've decided to review this book is because despite the cover and the okayish synopsis this book is surprising not bad. Yes there were may unnecessary red herrings that I could have done without and the ending was rushed but apart from that I enjoyed this book. The relationship between the two main characters is intriguing and genuine. This isn't a smug read about beautiful characters in a land far away, they seem genuine.

 I rarely read a novella which stays with me for sometime but More than Memories stayed with me long after I'd put the book down.  I kept thinking about these two characters while I was reading another book, I felt like I was cheating on an old boyfriend. This is nice read if you want something simple and nice.
