Burying Water by K.A. Tucker

Burying Water (The Burying Water, #1)

by K.A. Tucker

Left for dead in the fields of rural Oregon, a young woman defies all odds and survives-but she awakens with no idea who she is, or what happened to her. Refusing to answer to "Jane Doe" for another day, the woman renames herself "Water" for the tiny, hidden marking on her body-the only clue to her past. Taken in by old Ginny Fitzgerald, a crotchety but kind lady living on a nearby horse farm, Water slowly begins building a new life. But as she attempts to piece together the fleeting slivers of her memory, more questions emerge: Who is the next-door neighbour, quietly toiling under the hood of his Barracuda? Why won't Ginny let him step foot on her property? And whydoes Water feel she recognizes him?

Twenty-four-year-old Jesse Welles doesn't know how long it will be before Water gets her memory back. For her sake, Jesse hopes the answer is never. He knows that she'll stay so much safer-and happier-that way. And that's why, as hard as it is, he needs to keep his distance. Because getting too close could flood her with realities better left buried.

The trouble is, water always seems to find its way to the surface.

I liked this one better then book 2. Even though I made the mistake of reading the second book first.. and had some huge spoilers that kind of revealed the end, it was a really gripping and intriguing story. I really liked how she went back and forth in the timeline to give us a better idea of how it all happenend, and really liked the MC's. And the side characters too !
I also really enjoyed reading about the town, Sisters, makes me want to go there :)
