Rate this book
On a dark road in South Carolina, a New Jersey housewife’s minivan hits a patch of sand and crashes into a tree, leaving her unconscious. When she awakens, she is surrounded by strangers thousands of miles away. Yet, she is a stranger, even to herself. Her memory is gone, and the man who claims to be her father, a famous physician, tells her she is his beloved daughter, Susan Kline.

Recovering in the Beverly Hills mansion, Susan tries to trigger a memory or recognition of the people caring for her. Only to be left with the haunting feeling that she is not whom they say she is.

Scars prove she may have a family but forges a life with the man who claims to be her father.

Her path is chosen, her memories gone. Will the past dictate her future?

THis book follows Natalia/Susan, as she goes on a road trip to a convention. On the way home she is in an car accident. She is found by a renowned doctor from California, where he takes her. THis story intrigued me as the pages turned. I had a lot of questions, however I answered them myself. I look forward to reading more books by this author.

Excellent Read!

I’m a murder mystery lover, but when I saw the preview of this book, I knew I’d be hooked. By the middle of the first chapter, I knew I would not be disappointed, I cried and still the wheels were turning, “what would happen next?” I recommend this book to any mystery lover, it’s a page turner with a romantic twist.

Terrific plot.
An ill but desperate father, lost memories, a loving husband and 3 would-be motherless children make it hard to know who to root for. This author did a great job keeping the mystery unsolved until the very end. Definitely worth a read.

My wife bought this book and was fascinated. She talked about it for days. It was a recommendation from a friend, who mentioned the author was new. I don't normally read chick books. This story was good! The writing was good too and I liked that the author didn't put a lot of unnecessary stuff to drag the story out.

Richard Kline lost his wife to cancer then his daughter ran off 6 months later. Grieving for the loss of both, his dreams came true of finding his daughter again after 20 years when he happened across a car accident and she was the driver.
Meanwhile Johnathan is frantically looking for missing Natalie who, according to the Police, has been involved in a car accident but there is no sign of the driver!
One person, different identities but who is this woman and which family does she really belong to?
This is a great story which goes through a whole range of emotions involving confusion, hope, separation, anxiety, suspense and so much more. The plot is a basic one of memory loss but it gathers pace with every page turned as despiration sets in to fathom identity. It grips you almost immediately and as the story progresses you are compelled to read 'just one more chapter' to find out who this woman is and where she belongs. Love the range of characters, especially the canine companion that everyone adores. I like how the book tells the story from the side of both families, the frantic husband and heartbroken children to a father who is overjoyed at the reunion. Great read, thoroughly enjoyed.

This book was one that captured my interest from the very beginning. A realistic tale that keeps the reader engaged and wanting more! The author does an amazing job of helping the reader experience the emotions and trauma of her characters and makes it easy for those with similar past circumstances to relate and for others to gain better understanding into the darkness that some people are forced to face in this world.

This is the best book I have read this year and I highly recommend it. Natalia has a family and on a weekend away she has an auto accident and Dr. Richard Kline takes her to California thinking she may be his daughter. She has no memory of the past so she makes a new life and friends and a romance but then her husband and sons show up and even though she doesn't remember them she will have to make choices. This is beautifully written and very emotional.

A Heartfelt story that will capture your heart

I loved this story of a women who had been in a car accident and lost her memory and struggles to find out who she is. A man claims to be her father but she continues to doubt who he says he is.
A story of romance and mystery as the protagonist delves into her past seeking a past she doesn't remember.
Look forward to reading the next book in the continuing saga to see how things turn out.

I loved this book and the author did a brilliant job of making it feel like you knew and cared about the characters. I could not put it down but then was sad when I reached the end as I wished I had read it slower. I loved the twists that you did not see coming. I can't wait for the next book in the series.

Forgotten or Found

What could be worse than not remembering the people you love, not remembering them while building a new life. This is precisely what Natalia faces. Unforgotten Identity dives into this exact scenario an interesting plot line that will keep your attention as you learn her fate.

Well-written and riveting.

This was a great read with excellent editing and smooth writing. The story kept me involved and turning pages right up to the last few chapters. I wasn't particularly excited about the two options for the MC, then. They both turned into major jerks toward her when things were extremely confusing. Ito would have been nice to see her leave both of them because of it, but a great book all the same.

Forgotten Identity

This was a really sweet read packed with an emotional punch. It reminded me a little of a Nicholas Sparks book/movie about a woman who had amnesia. I enjoyed the characters but wish Natalia and Jonathon were reunited earlier. All in all, it was a great story.

Found the descriptions very repetitive and irrelevant. The timeline was also very difficult to follow and didn't really make sense.
