Amnesia is one of my very favourite tropes, and Leta Blake knocks it out of the park here with delicious angst and drama. Leith and Zach's struggle to come to terms with the new reality where Leith can't remember knowing Zach at all -- let alone being madly in love with him -- is gripping.

I like books with dual POVs especially in romance but Zach's Vlog was too juvenile for me, I was constantly cringing about what he
