The Memory Thief by Emily Colin
One beauty in reading is you never really know what you are getting. You can read the cover slip details and the reviews available online but perception is so different for everyone that you find those certain books with the average reviews that you just connect to. This was one of those books for me. I think this is a good adult read. I do not believe I would have appreciated this novel 5 or even 3 years ago!
Maddie and Aiden are a married couple with a little boy, Gabe. Aiden is an avid mountain climber and Maddie's biggest fear is losing him to a climbing accident. On one particular climb Aiden lost a close friend and Maddie watched as Aiden mourned the loss and fretted that next time it would be Aiden. Time passes and Aiden lets Maddie know that he has planned another climb on that Alaskan mountain and Maddie immediately begs him not to go feeling like he would never make it home. Late one night her son wakes up and the dreaded call comes through letting Maddie know Aiden had in fact died in a climbing accident.
Nicholas Sullivan wakes up in a hospital to find all his memories have been erased. He has dreams of a beautiful woman of whom he loves so much but not much else in life is making sense for him. He is engaged but feels no love. Works but feels no passion.
What happened on that mountain? Why does Nicholas Sullivan keep dreaming of a woman he can't seem to find? Why was Gabe so aware of what happened to his father?
I have read very few novels with any paranormal elements that I have enjoyed but the ones I do are the ones that have so many realistic elements it blends in and becomes believable. This novel is one of those done to perfection! Emily Colin has written a debut novel that has me super excited to see what else she has up her sleeve!
