Publisher Description

Abby doesn’t remember what happened the night she woke up in soot-stained clothes, lying next to a burning building with an unfamiliar boy at her side. But her connection with Sam is immediate and intense. And she has no one else: no family, no home, not even a last name.

She and Sam start a new life, just the two of them, and Abby’s deliriously happy. Until memories from her past begin to haunt her—and suddenly everything she’s learned to love turns sinister. It’s only a matter of time before her reality cracks apart.

"A very intense story about how one mistake, one wrong choice can alter your life.Abby loses her memory, Sam is there to help her. An insanely gripping story about how one can manipulate, brainwash, and control another.VERY good read. "

    " (view spoiler)[don't read this book. It's just flat-out disturbing. Even if you like disturbing, this is disturbing + bad writing, so it probably won't appeal to you, either (hide spoiler)] "

    " Creepy and dark, this book has no redeeming qualities. I was hoping that the main character could figure herself out and then it would have been worth reading, but the main character ended up being just as disappointing as the "villian" of the book. "

    " I thought this was going to be post-apocalytpic at first, but started realizing something else was going on soon after. I won't spoil it for you though! I waited around until the end, so that I could find out what the real deal was, but I didn't enjoy it very much. I can understand some of what happened to Abby, but I don't really believe her condition made her see the things around her so differently than they actually were. "

    " One of those books you either love or loathe -- & definitely have to be in just the right mood for. Cool premis and poetic (but overly dense) linquistic tone are a nice touch. The ending, however, proves a bit of a bummer. "

    " Seventeen year old Abby has no recollection of her past only of Sam, the boy who loves her and takes care of her. Her dependence on Sam for everything starts to unravel when she begins to have flashes of memory from her past. A psychological thriller for older teens and adults. "
