That means Nora is a complete stranger to her and therefore she has no idea they were dating. But tragedy strikes and Stevie has a horrible accident that has left her with no memories of the last 2 years. Both their families and the town they live in are conservative, so they secretly have come up with a plan to move to California at the end of summer. There's a lot of heart to this story and it's a book worth checking even if you don't typically read YA fiction. I was pleasantly surprised the author was able to come up with something that felt fresh and different using this trope. I watched a lot of soap operas in the 1980s and 90s so I'm no stranger to an amnesia storyline. Can the two beat the odds a second time and find their way back together when “together” itself is just a lost memory? Suddenly, Stevie finds herself in a life she doesn’t quite understand, one where she’s estranged from her parents, drifting away from her friends, lying about the hours she works, dating a boy she can’t remember crushing on, and headed towards a future that isn’t at all what her fifteen-year-old self would have envisioned.Īnd Nora finds herself…forgotten. And when she comes to, she can remember nothing of the last two years-not California, not coming to terms with her sexuality, not even Nora. They also had a plan: to leave their small, ultra-conservative town and families behind after graduation and move to California, where they could finally stop hiding that love.īut then Stevie has a terrible fall. A secret, epic, once-in-a-lifetime kind of love. What would you do if you forgot the love of your life ever even existed? A romantic ode to the strength of love and the power of choosing each other, against odds and obstacles, again and again.
