About the Book: A thrilling tale about what a girl will do to get back a memory she lost…or remove what she wants to forget.

Harper is used to her family being hounded by protesters. Her father runs the company that trademarked the "Memtex" procedure to wipe away sad memories, and plenty of people think it shouldn't be legal. Then a new demonstrator crosses her path, Neil, who’s as persistent as he is hot. Not that Harper’s noticing, since she already has a boyfriend.

When Harper suffers a loss, she’s shocked her father won’t allow her to get the treatment, so she finds a way to get it without his approval. Soon afterward, she’s plagued with strange symptoms, including hallucinations of a woman who is somehow both a stranger, yet incredibly familiar. Harper begins to wonder if she is delusional, or if these are somehow memories.

Together with Neil, who insists he has his own reasons for needing answers about the real dangers of Memtex, Harper begins her search for the truth. What she finds could uproot all she’s ever believed about her life…

Do I Recommend this book? Yes!

Notes and Opinions: This was a wonderful book about loss and what to do with it after it happens.  In this world, you can have a procedure where all the bad memories are taken away. It begged the question of are you still the same person if you don't have your experiences be them good or bad.  This one spoke to me personally since I have had a ton of good and bad things happen to me over the years. But who would I be without those? This was one book that was a ride I won't soon forget. With glorous characters and a story that never let up. I can not wait to read something else from this author.
