The heart remembers.
When Aidan Bishop staggers out of the woods, naked and suffering from amnesia, he needs to relearn who he is and where he fits in the world.
His boss, nearly five-hundred-year-old dragon Nassim, head of a successful tech company, hurries to claim his wayward assistant and guide him back into the life he disappeared from. As they get to know each other again, Aidan wonders if their relationship went deeper than employer and employee. But Nassim isn’t telling, and Aidan has a secret of his own… even if he doesn’t know it yet.
REVIEW:
This was a damn good story. I mean, dragons, right? But it’s not just that. There are all kinds of paranormals involved. Dragons are just the feature. But this book has some twists and turns in it that you don’t expect coming and it leaves you not wanting it to end. I couldn’t put it down.
It starts out with a naked man in a field behind a building. The man has no idea who he is or where he’s from or anything. He just knows he’s a man, naked, behind a building. As he gets closer, someone comes out and they recognize him. They tell him his name, and that he’s been missing for 4 days. He can’t remember anything. Not one single thing. He goes back to work and is quick to settle in, but the police, or a police keeps coming to interrogate him. Over people he don’t know and now he’s made a threat, Aiden has no clue about. All he knows is tensions are high between him and his boss, Nassim, and he let something slip that was a whopper. And that’s after finding out something about himself he didn’t know. Now his past is coming to confront him about what he’s supposed to be doing and it isn’t pretty. He can’t believe this of himself and now his past and his future are trying to collide in bad ways. And he has to stop it before his boss and lover are hurt.
I can not imagine what Aiden has had to go through. Every time he’s killed in some way, he leaves his body and comes back to remember nothing. And that’s telling you too much already. But I can’t imagine it. Constant amnesia. And then when you find out, you find out you were set up to betray the one person you’ve come to love. And for Nassim, things are just as hard. His long past has given him a form of PTSD and it keeps him in constant fear of being able to move forward to do anything. Or be with anybody. Just when he was getting used to being with Aiden, Aiden disappears and everything in his past comes back with a vengeance. So they both have battles to overcome. And it’s not easy. Especially the more Aiden is finding out about himself. The tensions are high and everyone is hot headed. They have to have time to cool down and think about what’s really important to them. And it’s sad that it takes almost losing someone again to make things come in perspective.
It’s a really good book. Really good. I need to go back and read the first one to see how this all started.
