Deja Vu

But what happens if I have no past? I don’t remember giving birth. I don’t remember my name, my family, or where I come from. I don’t remember…anything. The only clue to my past rests in a bundle of blankets swaddled in my arms—a newborn baby girl. With no leads and no family able to find me, the only way I can learn the truth is if I recover my lost memories myself. Fortunately, I have help. Detective Shepard Novak, the gorgeous, blue-eyed police officer assigned to my case, is determined to uncover the mystery—and with it, my secrets. But as the days become weeks, the only memories I keep are the ones we’ve made together. I shouldn’t feel the way I do for him, and I shouldn’t have let him get this close. But I can’t remember a life before him…and I’m not sure I want to search anymore. Is it worth sacrificing my past for a chance at our future?
