I have to say that this is a very festive read. It is set around a week before Christmas in New York. Those that know me know that I would absolutely LOVE to visit NY in December, one day I will but for now I am living vicariously through Christmas books set there (I'd love some more recommendations if anyone has any). It is the perfect Christmas scene. The snow, the decorations, the songs, Macy's everything. I really love Christmas.
Darcy is a sweet, quiet, bookish girl. She has grown up with a huge love of books and spends her days working at Chaucers, a NY bookshop. This place sounds idyllic. Shelves stacked high with books upon books. Heaven. So Darcy is on her way to work one morning, she is rushing because she overslept and is late when she smacks, literally, into Aiden Harris, knocking him unconscious.
When Aiden wakes up he doesn't remember anything, not just about the accident but about his entire life. So Darcy feeling guilty tries to help him remember. Darcy goes above and beyond to help Aiden but nothing she does seems to help. I enjoyed that some chapters were written from Aiden's POV. It added to the suspense and mystery of his life.
I also loved Bailey the husky dog. I miss my parents dogs immensely and if I didn't work would most definitely have at least one.
I really enjoyed this book and it will definitely not be the last book by Melissa that I read. I have all her others on my TBR pile and will be bumping them up. If you love a festive romantic read then pick this up now.
