Forget to Remember

I truly enjoyed reading this book.  It had all the elements of a well thought out novel.  A dishwasher at an upscale restaurant discovers a woman, close to death, in the dumpster.  Rigo feels a sense of responsibility for the young woman and soon discovers she has amnesia.  He and his family try to help Carol (as she decides she should be called) find out who she is and to have some sense on normalcy. 

Along the way, Rigo begins to have feelings for the strong willed beauty he has saved.  But he is not sure she feels the same.  Carol finds out she has an appeal that men cannot seem to resist.  From the young men she meets to the old men that want to possess her; she learns how to use her abilities as needed.  She also discovers noble characteristics about herself that she is proud of. 

Her search for her identity takes her from California to North Carolina to England.   All the while, Carol meets interesting individuals that help her on her quest to rediscovery of who she is.  However, in the end will these people help her or hurt her?  Who is it that wanted her dead and will they strike again?  How can she protect herself when she doesn’t have an identity? 

Readers will have a hard time putting "Forget to Remember" down as it grabs you, pulls you into the story, and doesn’t let up until the end.  I was completely sucked into this story and did not have a dull moment reading it.
