Once, Again - by Deborah Crossland (Hardcover)

Book Synopsis

A young woman with amnesia feels drawn to a familiar stranger in this searing coming-of-age romance told in dual POVs perfect for fans of Rachel Lynn Solomon and If He Had Been with Me.

She fell in love with him once.
Will she fall in love with him again?

Zoe and Decker had a whirlwind summer romance: late-night films, inside jokes, and a promise to reunite at the Pacific Grove Lighthouse in December.

Eight months later, Zoe has no memory of any of this. After a freak summer storm causes a car crash leaving her with a spotty memory and plagued by nightmares, she's forced into living a life she doesn't recognize. But when a young and handsome stranger shows up at the bakery where she's living with her aunt while she works to recover, Zoe realizes that the nightmares may be more memory than dream. She remembers something--someone.

As this stranger becomes a reliable source of friendship and begins to feel more familiar to her for reasons she can't quite name, Zoe starts to question all that she thinks she knows of herself and her life. If she continues to pursue the truth, she could find a past that'll change her future forever. But if she ignores the calls of her forgotten memories, how could she ever trust the present?
