Manhattan Memory

From Manhattan #10

by V. Theia

Do you believe in unreliable narrators?
I’m sure by the end of this you will.
Yet, there is one thing that you can rely on.
How obsessed I am with the crankiest girl.
My Samia.

She has become the exclusive object of my attention.
The purpose behind all my actions.
Underhanded as it may be.
The rewards far outweigh the consequences.

MacNamaras are unlawful, resourceful folks when we need to be.
I can’t lose.
I won’t lose.
Are my choices right? Not even close.
Who said all’s fair in love and war?

Infatuation drives me.
Love is my only motivation.
Are you getting the picture yet?
She’s my one. The love of my corrupt life.
Her memories have been lost.
It’s time to make my girl fall for me.
And make her mine forever.

About the author

I write steamy, emotionally driven contemporary and MC romance, featuring tough-as-nails alpha men who only show their soft side for their person.

My books are packed with dirty talk, detailed sex scenes, and swoony, slow-burn chemistry that explodes. I lean into dark-lite themes, sometimes forbidden tropes, but I always deliver that satisfying, well-earned HEA.

Currently, I’m riding with bikers and bad boys—but one day I’ll be bringing you the dirtiest, most seductive vampire in paranormal romance.
If you love intense love stories, broken characters, and men who love hard and fight harder, I’ve got something for you. 🖤

Prepare to fall HARD in love with Kian and Samia.
His love for her has no boundaries or decency.

A fabulous HEA with epilogue years in the future.

Oh wow, the author did it again. she smashed this one right into my heart.
It’s a trope I love with a determined alpha and a sweet, loveable heroine, but who knows she holds all the power because he’ll do anything for her.
Each book in this series offers unique storylines, captivating plots, and passionate characters who are fiercely devoted to their partners.
Manhattan Memory is another incredible story within the From Manhattan interconnected series (it features both parents and the next generation within the series), and I still believe that this is one of the most underrated series I have ever read! I wish more readers would fall in love, if only so I had book besties to gush over this couples with!

10/10 an absolute recommend.

Where do you start with this book every time I open a V Theia book I say the words I will not fall in love with this man because I cannot have anymore in my life.

I am wrong every damn time.

I will admit it… I should just give in.

Manhattan Memory takes place in the From Manhattan world which we are now well acquainted with and now it is Kian McNamara’s turn to be the hero, and Samia to be the heroine. Kian is the burn the world down for the people he loves and although his methods are unconventional he knows what he wants and he will get it. I picked up on something very quickly but even though I knew where it was heading I could not be mad at it.

Samia is a feisty girl who navigating what she feels a gap in her life, a gap that a certain man is all too willing to help with. I loved these two their back and forth oozes of the page and the cameos from the other books made me happy squeal always love to drop in on the people we have met before. Although this can be read as a standalone I highly recommend reading the other books before you delve in because it will just give you the richness and diversity of the world. We have a come a long way since the little duet…

If you like HEA and burn the world down for you hero’s and feisty female characters, V’s books are for you then give this series a follow because you will not be disappointed in them. Now I just eagerly await the next one in whichever world we get next.

I am going to do my best to keep it together and not go complete fangirl, so here goes, fingers crossed. A near tragedy gave Kian an opening and what bad guy misses an opportunity to take possession of his obsession? Carrying a torch for the beautiful Samia since she was 16, she seemed to never give him the time of day. A guy more interested in being a hooligan is not boyfriend material, right? Little does this beautiful, crazy man know but Samia has also crushed on him for ages. What good girl wants to make a fool of herself over a bad boy? After getting into a fight with a bus on the streets of Manhattan, she can't remember the last few months. Her one constant companion through her recovery is Kian. Calling her dreamgirl, loving how she is cranky in the mornings before her coffee, he is completely devoted to her. So of course, she believes him, he has no reason to lie, right? I fell in love with these two! Samia's crankiness was very endearing and I loved how much Kian adored that about her. He was so completely wrapped up in her and he stopped at nothing to make sure she was just as enamored of him. I savored every word of this incredible book, it was completely enthralling! I cannot recommend this author enough, everything she creates is absolutely magical!

“So, take me back to Manhattan that dear old dirty town
The East, West, [Incomprehensible]
That dear old, sweet old dirty town” ~Take Me Back to Manhattan- Rosemary Clooney

This author gets it right every single time!
Obsessive - check
Morally grey- check
Loyal- check
LOVE HIS WOMAN- check, check and CHECK

Kian is a second gen storyline and he is as naughty as his father. Samia is a cranky princess who can’t remember details of her life after an accident. What naughty boy wouldn’t take advantage of this with no apologies?

I could go on and on about my love for V. Theia’s Manhattan World, but what I want to say is read the books, get wrapped up in the world building and become obsessed like the rest of us fans. 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

[Tamara Harrington · Rating 3 out of 5]

So this for me was a 3.5 star read.
It's no secret that I love V's writing style and have read many of her books.
This one just wasn't the biggest hit for me. I enjoyed seeing some of the other characters From Manhattan but Samia just didn't do it for me. I found it a struggle to connect with her and that made me a little uninterested in how things were going. I wasn't the biggest fan of how the book started, I felt like I was a little too in the middle of what was going on with not enough back story to start and found that I then couldn't concentrate for a big portion.
Kian was a hit, I love a man with all the red flags and morally grey vibes(in books) and his obsession made me do more than 1 happy dance. I do wish I could have seen a little more depth but I appreciate that that is just the mood I feel right now. The thing that I can say with 100% certainty is that Vic has once again brought the spice and I am here for it!!!
All in all I can't wait to see what V has in store for us in the future.
This is my honest and unbiased review.

[Clare-Marie-BookAddict · Rating 5 out of 5]

I was captivated by this book and couldn't wait to find out what would happen next. I didn't want this book to ever finish. I'm so excited to see what this author does next. In whatever genre she writes in, I’m buying it, binging it and falling in love with fantastic characters and plots.
Amnesia romance is one of my fave tropes and this was done with a little twist that had me deliriously happy.

God, Kian MacNamara is even dirtier and more calculating than his dad (Naughty Irish Liar) a perfect book boyfriend who has eyes for no one else FOR YEARS! He wanted to make himself better before he knew he could deserve Samia. Sure, his methods are questionable LOL. But by god, I love that man. And Samia has him firmly around her little finger.

One of MANY favorite quotes I highlighted:
He’s crazy, that has to be it. I wonder if his parents had him tested at all.
But then I prove I can match that sexy Irishman in all his craziness when I exclaim, “If you dare get me pregnant, you’ll have to marry me. I’m a traditional girl, Kian.”
I want to retract the words and stuff them into my stomach as soon as they’re airborne. My face stains red, so hot I feel my skin burning as Kian smiles oh-so-slowly and then steps out of the confines of my legs.
“Deal. We’ll get married ASAP, baby.”
What?
WHAT?
I’m sure the ringing in my ears is a sleeper cell brain tumor being triggered to life as I swivel around on the counter, nearly falling to the floor in my haste to see what Kian is doing. But all he’s up to is pulling food from the fridge and tossing it on the chopping board closest to him.
“That’s not funny. I was joking, Kian, you know I was joking. Take it back now.”
I hold the counter like a raft. Is the ground moving underneath my feet? Since when do floors do that?
Rather than set my mind to rest by agreeing that we were both having a laugh, he flashes me a wicked glint, broader now as he continues dumping ingredients.
“Kian!” I stamp my foot.
He doesn’t mean it.
Right?
He’s not talking about us marrying…like now? Soon? Is he?
“Save that for later, Mrs MacNamara.” He says calmly like his intestines aren’t all twisted up in sticky, excited-but-scared-witless knots like mine. “Let me feed you first. You’ve burned a lot of energy today. Gotta build my girl up to birth my Irish babies.”
It’s astonishing to think that after surviving a traffic accident, my life would ultimately end in the warm kitchen of a luxurious penthouse at the hands of a captivating Irishman.
I’m screwed.

What happens when the object of your obsession, who has no idea about your feelings, has an accident and suffers from memory loss? If you are a morally gray male with an even more gray background and heritage who has been obsessed with someone for years, you take the gift the universe has dropped in your lap and run with it.

Kian Kian Kian. In any other hero his actions would be pearl clutching and deplorable, and he is objectively a walking OCEAN of red flags where Samia is concerned, but it's because he is so solely and intensely focused on Samia that he has become one of my favorite book boyfriends ever. How can you not fall for someone that will go to such wildly wooing lengths to make his woman HIS? His confidence and swagger were hard not to admire because it was balanced by such an affable laid back demeanor. He was a bulldozer when it came to her, but a gentle bulldozer. The way he calmly and confidently inserts himself into Samia's life, insisting that not only have they been in a loving relationship, but that they live together, not to mention his breezy way of explaining away Samia's very logical questions was great fun to read.

I loved that this was set in the Manhattan world that prior books inhabit, but could be absolutely read as a standalone. I loved that Kian and Samia knew each other beforehand. It makes his feelings for her feel organic and deep rather than if it had just been the intense instant attraction between strangers. Through his actions, Kian really demonstrated how well he knew Samia, and how well he loved her and her crankiness. I love when heroines aren't all sunshine and rainbows, and Samia just being naturally a little bit snarly really worked for me and was a great complement to him.

This was a really amazing read, and probably my favorite out of all of the Manhattan books....minus the OGs, of course. No one tops Sena and Noah!

[Laura||GandyFangirl♡ · Rating 5 out of 5]

All the King control freak. Master of no boundaries. stars!!!!

Without spoiling anything, I assure you that reading this book will not disappoint and you'll likely become a big fan of the author, just like me.
It��s amnesia romance but with a twist I didn’t see coming.
My thoughts totally took me in a wrong direction.
Kian claims he’s not a good guy but he does EVERYTHING for Samia. But she can’t remember he’s her boyfriend after an accident. He’s so patient and kind, and soooo loving, I swooned so hard for him. And when she starts to catch feelings for him, it was so fun to see it happening. She was such a good heroine you can cheer on.
It’s a hot, page turning book.

“Marry me, dreamgirl. Be my wife. My everything.”

It’s from a standalone series you can read in any order. I love this series and Manhattan Memory fits in well, we see a few familiar faces along the way that makes you want to go back and read their books again.

If I can deviate from my review for a second to say, what you get with V. Theia is she writes likeable characters, relatable characters, you can find something to empathise with and sometimes even recognize your own thoughts and traits within these characters. It makes the books so much more enjoyable.
And also, she doesn’t destroy the OG couples just to further the next generation couples. When we get glimpses of Kian and Samia’s parents, it was happy feelings to see them on the pages again.

I hope I don’t need to be choked every time I want to get off. the way I laughed my bum off at this line. Samia was a grumpy hoot!

A new manhattan man has my soul. Read it and love it! This is a second generation, I also loved their parents books. It can be enjoyed as a standalone but I'm sure you'll want to read them all eventually!

[Kay · Rating 5 out of 5]

When I pick up a V. Theia book, I’m always at a loss for words. Just when I think I've read her best, she surprises me with even more depth and captivating characters. Kian, in particular, has become one of my favorites, showcasing the unique charm only V. Theia can provide.
In Manhattan Memory, we follow bad boy, Kian, on a journey of love. When Samia, the girl he’s been infatuated/obsessed with for years, loses her memory in an accident, Kian seizes the chance to rewrite their history. It’s a tale of love and redemption.
As always, V. Theia creates a rich and immersive world. This book is set in the familiar Manhattan universe, where we’ve already met Kian and Samia’s parents in Naughty Iris Liar and Manhattan Protector. Now, it’s Kian's turn to be the hero, with Samia as the heroine. Kian’s methods might be unconventional…well, crazy, but his love for Samia is undeniable. I quickly figured out where the story was heading and loved it—after all, Kian is his father’s son. His confidence and swagger…HOT!!! Balanced by his laid-back demeanor…HOT!!!
While this can be read as a standalone, I highly recommend reading the other books first for a better experience. If you love happily-ever-afters and heroes who will move mountains and swim the ocean for their women, V. Theia’s books are for you. Give this series a try; you won’t be disappointed.
I’m eagerly awaiting the next book in the series or anything else from V. Theia. I’m so hooked on her writing that I’d even read the phone book if she wrote it! Only…do we still have phone books?
Happy Reading!

Perfect

I have loved this series. This world is special with characters that are dynamic and a world that is vibrant. The love stories are unique and always shows that love is more than just an idea with a label. It's soul consuming. This author has perfected the idea that love doesn't always stay in a box and is messy. She isn't afraid to color outside the lines. I'm not sure many others can do what she does and still make it authentic and believable. The way that the leading characters love is beautiful and is why they all live rent free in my head.

I wasn't sure there was anyone who could move Noah from my top spot, except maybe his son, Lachlan. I was wrong. Kian, good lord, this man. Everything, and I mean everything, was perfection. The way he loved Samia; from they way he humored her, the lengths he went to make his dream a reality, his sublime dirty mouth, to his love letters were the stuff of dreams and why I read romance.

One of my favorites from this series and from this author.

[I need a HEA · Rating 5 out of 5]

How do you feel about delicious, swoony groveling when a character fucks up?

Then Manhattan Memory is for you.
I loved how it was a grovel to give them another chance but not a real apology because they weren’t really sorry ( you’ll understand how it makes sense if you read the book ) I was like a giggling idiot and then my heart exploded all over with so much love.

I’m not a heroine basher, as most romance reviews tend to be, we’re always hardest on our own sex. I thought Samia was written so well, it showed her confusion, how she was healing from an accident. And her growing feelings for this man who claimed to be her man, but someone who she’d only seen on the peripheral of her life. They had shared friends but were never close and she couldn’t understand why they were dating.
But as the reader we know Kian is wildly in love with her. He’s never hidden it.
Get your man, Samia! Gah, so good.

That right there is gut instinct telling me he can’t be trusted, however handsome he is. No way.
Bad boys gonna bad boy. He's a bad boy I'd love to have😂😍

[Jenn · Rating 5 out of 5]

I'm so tired because I stayed up to read this book as soon as it dropped onto my Kindle at midnight, but omg, it was SO WORTH IT!

10 fkn giant stars of deliciousness!
Ms Theia did it again and has me hooked like a junkie needing more. These Manhattan men are truly incredible. I really enjoyed Samia and Kian’s story. When Kian states in the beginning, “I’m not the good guy in this scenario. That will become clear eventually. But who said love had to be played fairly, huh?” Hooo boy did we find out. 
But you know what? He’s the perfect guy to love Samia.
 
Amnesia romance.
Grumpy heroine ( loved it, she kept Kian on his toes and this big, powerful alpha simped for her and spoiled her😍)
No sex scenes with others. Hero was celibate for years once he was interested in Samia.
When the spice got going it was hot af. The author doesn’t skimp on details. I felt the lust pounding off the pages.
 
A most enjoyable read, one I will go back to because I’m in love.

[Claire Louise¤°.¸¸.•´¯`» · Rating 5 out of 5]

Once I started this baby I couldn’t put it down. I ADORED Kian and Samia’s journey towards a HEA. Who doesn’t fall hard for a book boyfriend who will do ANYTHING to have your heart? Even despicable, unforgiveable things. Kian goes all in and I was kicking feet and giggling over how much I loved his methods.

It was enjoyable to have a non-apologetic, cranky heroine who wasn't always in a sunny mood. The author did an excellent job of writing this pair.
I'm a huge fan of this series and have read the books multiple times. Each new release feels like coming home.

Manhattan Memory can be read as a standalone, but why wouldn’t you want to read their parents falling in love too? Or their friend group? It’s a fantastic series with guaranteed, perfect HEA.
The author's epilogues are always top-notch, no matter the series she writes in.
After finishing the book, there's an extra bit of joy.

[whatjtreads · Rating 4 out of 5]

Kian McNamara has been obsessed with Samia Madsen for a long time, and when he sees the opportunity to convince her to be with him, he goes for it. It’s a little out there, he’s hiding plenty of secrets, but he’s absolutely clear that his obsession is Samia. When we start the story, Samia had an accident and lost her memory. It’s up to Kian, who says he’s her boyfriend, to help her remembers parts of her life. Interestingly enough, Samia remembers everything except for her relationship with Kian, and she has to figure out why they were hiding their relationship, or whether they had one in the first place.

This was an interesting plot, and I’m sure if you’ve read the other books, you’d know more of the characters that appear. I didn’t, but not reading previous books didn’t hinder my understanding of the story. Interesting plot, but sometimes I didn’t love the writing in this as her other stories (like the MC ones).

[Joy Westerfield · Rating 5 out of 5]

I was so excited to hear that there was another story coming in the Manhattan World! This series is one of my absolute favorites and I couldn’t wait to read it! I mean, who doesn’t love a dirty talking, sexy Irishman who worships his woman! Well I know I do, and Kian is that man! Samia is the woman he worships and loves, but there is just one thing stopping him, she doesn’t remember they are a couple. She was involved in an accident that stole her memories and now Kian has to get her to love him all over again. Their journey has many ups and downs, which is expected, and I loved every minute of it. Samia is such a breath of fresh air, beautiful, cranky and the perfect woman for Kian. But when Samia finds out something, can she forgive Kian? Their chemistry is unreal, to the point I could feel the lust and love jump off the pages, sizzling!! I enjoyed how this author sprinkled other characters from the series throughout and made my heart feel all happy and warm. While you don’t need to read the series to understand the characters, I do highly recommend doing so. This story is yet another example of how much I love this authors words. She makes me always fall in love with the main characters, just like this time with Kian and Samia. Brilliant!

[Sarah DeLong · Rating 5 out of 5]

I was so excited for this new book in the standalone Manhattan series! Kian and Samia's story doesn't disappoint. I fell in love with the broody, dirty-talking, hot-blooded Irishman. Samia was perfect for him in her cranky ways, testing his heart and patience when an accident leaves her no memory of the two of them.
The heat between these two was sizzling and their journey was like no other. A little emotional, a lot of falling in love all over again even with things stirring up turmoil.
I was also delighted to see other characters from this series make cameo appearances here in this book, even though like I stated above, they're all standalones but I highly that the others are read as well. Don't let a delightful, incredible reading escape slip from your grasp. I've loved all of this author's characters and each their stories.

[Bee · Rating 5 out of 5]

Manhattan Memory, the latest in the From Manhattan series is once again? Phenomenal.

I love with this series how we often meet the children of the original characters as they've grown and this is one such tale. So there's a sense of meeting old friends and new ones, like when you move back home after a long time away. V Theia's writing and world-building in general add to this familiarity and ability to walk alongside the characters and Manhattan Memory doesn't disappoint in every regard.

I think there's a little bit more of a darker edge to our MMC, Kian MacNamara as he's playing a dangerous game both in his personal and professional life but... somehow despite it all? You know there's good in him too.

After all, as Renee Rocco said, 'the hero would sacrifice you for the world. A villain would sacrifice the world for you...' and Kian MacNamara is the embodiment of that quote. He's one to risk it all, whilst weighing up all the odds to get what or rather who he wants.

I do believe V Theia has a gift with their writing, as every book I have read, has been one I've not been able to put down and then gone back to. Everything comes to life from the pages, and everything messes perfectly so there's no mental shift when returning to a series and I just love the realness of the characters. Both Kian and the love of his life, Samia jump from the page. You feel that they feel, can envisage their world of Manhattan with loud taxis, the cacophony of a raucous Irish bar on a weekend etcetera.

This I think will be another fan favourite if you're a fan of the author... it's got it all with romance, drama and characters who will linger in your memory from the destroyer of all problems Kian, to the fighter and determined Samia whose love will be akin to flame on a ticker tape.

Forced Proximity with a Twist

V. Theia is a one click author for me. I would love reading an instruction brochure if she wrote it. But this book totally blew me away. I went in to it thinking I knew what to expected - nope - I was wrong - It was so much MORE!
I could not put this book down. I ignored everything and everyone in order to devour it. The chemistry between Samia is real. REAL! My fingers were zinging from the chemistry coming off the pages. I don’t know how to write this review without giving away the storyline, so I can’t say much. This is not your ordinary forced proximity mafia read. It’s soooo much more! Do yourself a favour. Grab this book, lock yourself away for a bit and get ready to read a really amazing story with a high heat level! You will only regret not doing it if you don’t grab it, so grab it now!

[Kathyjacks · Rating 5 out of 5]

This book was so good! Kian is probably one of my top heroes that V has written just because he’s so ott possessive and willing to cross any line to get and keep his girl Samia.

Samia was in an accident that caused her to have amnesia and when she woke up her loving and doting boyfriend was at her side. Samia doesn’t remember them being together. They’ve known one another since childhood but she doesn’t remember the relationship at all.

Kian moves fast and doesn’t take no for an answer. He has Samia moved in and has a ring in her finger but then Samia finds out it’s all a lie.

I was totally rooting for Kian all the way. This had a reverse grumpy/sunshine trope which was interesting. I didn’t want to say goodbye to this couple.

[Joanne Mccorkell · Rating 5 out of 5]

Ever wonder what its like to be the sole focus of a fully obsessive, red flag neanderthal ... Samia didnt need to wonder, Kian made her his world.

This is the perfect example of a hot blooded, determined man, willing to burn the world at the feet of the woman he deems too good for him. Kian decided Samia was his, he also feels guilt at her being injured and he wasnt there to stop it. Samia has to recover from a horrific injury, while doing so, the man shes always crushed on tells her they were in a relationship together, and she has to deal with him constantly by her side.

I loved the small glimpses of previous stories and hints at how their lives continued.

[Anya · Rating 5 out of 5]

I love V Theia’s writing and my words in no way do this story justice.
I implore you, don't miss out on this book!

There were many standout moments.
Kian’s letters.
His revenge.
The talk with Lachlan.
The waxing!
But I loved the sensible, relatable talk Samia had with Kian regarding not being a single mom ( or being in a relationship but still having to parent alone because all a guy wants is to do the knocking up part and that’s it.) it was so rare so see, especially if you read breeding romances like I do. I was all GO GIRL YES!!!!

I’m not as angry with Kian anymore.
That magical dick of his has wham-bammed me again.

[Jeanne · Rating 4 out of 5]

This was a bit of a wild ride. We know Kian has done something rotten, but not exactly what for a while. He is patient and consistent with her,helping with her recover and helping her fall for him after losing recent memories in an accident. He is currently everything in her life and he couldn’t be happier about it. He loves her being mean and handles everything she throws at him. I loved his totally ever the top EVERYTHING when it comes to her. And they are delicious together.

I received a free copy of this book.

Omg! This amnesia romance had everything I wanted - intense relationship, steamy scenes, gripping storyline, and amazing characters. I've never been disappointed by V.

Every book in this series becomes my new favorite!
😍😍KIAN!😍😍
It has fun banter, snarky moments, sweet and delicious and the HEAT is hot enough to burn.
If I had any complaints it would be I wanted maybe 700 pages more of their life together!!!!

Get ready to buckle up and hold on tight because "Manhattan Memory," is an adrenaline-pumping, heart thumping mega-delicious read. Kian MacNamara is here to claim your heart and underwear. If you’re looking for a filthy-talking book boyfriend who has eyes for no one else, look no further!!
Ms Theia continuously demonstrates her prowess with each word as the story lifts right off the page and imbeds itself in your book boyfriend life. 

This is one for my re-read pile.

[Surrender2silk · Rating 5 out of 5]

Book ten in the From Manhattan series. Kian has been in love with Samia far too long. He was not ready to claim his girl. When she gets in an accident. Thats where his obsession starts. Samia can’t remember nothing about Kian. The only thing she knows is how he makes her fell. Loved, cherished and most of all wanted. His craziness is epic. The way he moves the world for her is just red flag all the way. Perfect book to this amazing series.

He took advantage of her memory loss to become her everything. Hoping to forever keep the deception from her, but nothing ever stays a secret. How can he convince her his love is an obsession that grows every day and this wasn’t a game? Strong characters and well written storyline makes this an great read for any romantic. Definitely recommend this book and author.

[Pamela · Rating 5 out of 5]

Samia has been in an accident and lost some of her recent memories. Kian McNamara has always been a bad boy with an obsession for her. He takes care of her while she recovers and there are no lengths he won't go to keep her with him. Secrets have a way of coming out, will Samia be able to forgive or will the couple implode under the stress? A scorching hot story with plenty of action with an obsessed, dirty talking man.

Despite his red flags and morally grey behaviour I actually liked Kian more than I expected to. There was something about Samia though that made me have reservations about her.

Despite that this is a great book, it's a classic V story with enough heat to warm anyone's cold heart.
