New author recommendation

I wasn't sure what to expect with this story, and I certainly will be digging into this authors books. The story is about a couple on the brink of divorce, when an unexplained accidents... Unless I missed it...occurs, and the wife ends up in the hospital. No spoilers.... The couple finds their way back to one another, and all was well...

This is a new author to me and I ate this story up. Shauntay and Dallas are married and are on the brink of divorce when Shauntay gets into a car accident and suffers amnesia and doesn’t remember her husband. This was a messy quick read. Both had to fall in love with each other again after so many years of being in a love less marriage. I enjoyed watching the two come back together and forgive each other.

Really enjoyed this short, sweet and action filled story!

Imagine being surrounded by family and friends, and you can't remember them or your wedding, or your pending divorce or crazy car accident! You can't find your father, your baby son, or the reason why your husband disappears after work!

Crazy answers start to appear because your friends and family realize what is going on, but are afraid to tell you. Love the way Dallas and Shauntay had to wade their way through the clues. Great short story!!!!
