REVIEW: Forget Me Twice by Carina Taylor

Forget Me Twice by Carina Taylor: Meyer Dunmore was shocked to receive a phone call from the hospital telling her that her ex-husband of a year has been in an accident, and she needs to come to the hospital since she is listed as his emergency contact.

“I’m sure many women have brought back a husband who has amnesia. It’s very common. In fact, I should think about starting a support group…”

Even more shocking is the fact the ER physician insists she take Archie home because he has amnesia, and he thinks they are still happily married. Oh, and she can’t tell him the truth and risk him having emotional stress. How do you keep your ex-husband in the dark about him leaving you, moving to another state, and the divorce when your entire life is different than it was one year ago?

“He doesn’t know that I know that he remembers. And as long as he’s not going to tell me the truth, I’ve decided it’s fine to have a little bit of fun with it.”

The pacing of the book was perfect, and it was packed with comedy that will keep you laughing the entire book. I enjoyed Meyer’s character. She was witty, humorous, clever, and independent. I was hooked from the beginning and kept reading to see more of Meyer’s snarky inner thoughts. The situation which she had to deal with put her in a dilemma, but she never lost her snark and mischievousness. Archie was the perfect partner for Meyer. He understands her in a way that most people would not. Together these two just clicked.

I really enjoyed the book, but we only had Meyer’s point of view. I would have loved to know what Archie was thinking. Overall, Forget Me Twice is a fun book full of endearing characters,  it is a book that would appeal to everyone.

When my local hospital calls to say “I’m sorry to tell you this, but your husband has been in an accident” I try to explain the basics to them.
1. I am not married—anymore. (Archie Dunmore is a thing of the past.)
2. If there’s a husband in the hospital, it’s not mine.

Except Archie is back, and he’s been in an accident. One that has left him with amnesia. Yup. He believes we’re still happily married. Oh joy.

Too bad for me, the doctor believes it would be best for Archie to remember things on his own. He needs familiar surroundings to heal.

No big shocks.
No emotional trauma.
Which means I can’t tell him the truth.

Archie bursts back into my life with all the warmth and joy of a freshly married man, confident that I’m the love of his life, and determined to fix the rift between us.
Except how do I tell him that he walked out on me?
Especially when Archie is desperately trying to remember what I’ve worked so hard to forget.

What’s a girl to do with an amnesiac ex-husband at her breakfast table?
