Noah Landers wakes up one day with a headache and no memory of where--or who--he is. Jason, the man taking care of him, tries to fill in some of the blanks: they're in a cabin in Colorado on vacation, and Noah slipped on ice and hit his head. But even with amnesia, Noah knows Jason is leaving out something important.
Jason O'Reilly is sexy as hell, treats Noah like he's precious, and seems determined to make this the romantic getaway they'd apparently dreamed of together. But Noah's more concerned that he's trapped alone with Jason in the middle of a blizzard while his slowly-returning memories bring hints of secrets and betrayal.
Noah's not sure what's the truth and what's a lie. But as he learns who he is--and who Jason is to him--Noah's he's forced to reevaluate everything he believes about himself, about loyalty . . . and about love.
Second Edition -- Originally published 2017 by Riptide Publishing.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Springer's debut explores the parameters of an amnesiac's fraught trust exercise through the experience of a young man who is told his name is Noah Landers. He's got a head injury, purportedly sustained while shoveling snow at a remote cabin in Colorado. With him is a handsome, apparently older man calling himself Jason O'Reilly. None of these data points resonates in any way with Noah not even the revelation that he and Jason had gone there as lovers. More irritable and suspicious than frightened by his situation, Noah keeps chipping away at Jason's reticence, which Jason excuses by saying he wants Noah's memories to return on their own. The excuse doesn't ring true and neither do the stories Jason does tell, though his affectionate behavior warms Noah. Noah's paranoia is resolved in a twist that complicates the lovers' dilemma rather than concluding it. The well-executed plot neither transcends nor reinvents the amnesia trope, but it satisfyingly fills its confines with a pair of appealing and complex characters.
