Description
If a love is worth remembering, nothing will make it forgotten.
Evan Fairfax, Earl of Baselford, is a man adrift. Five years ago, he lost his memory due to a hunting accident. Suddenly back in London, he stumbles into a ball, disoriented. He sees a woman he vaguely recognizes, and when confusing emotions beset him, he flees to the address scrawled onto a scrap of paper and pinned to his lapel—the Rogue's Arcade Club. Perhaps they will have the answers he desperately needs.
Lady Vivian Fairfax, the Countess of Baselford, assumed her husband died. After five years, she mourned, finally consigned him to her past, and moved forward with her life, but when the earl comes staggering into their home in the midst of a ball she's throwing with the man currently courting her, everything changes. She's immediately besieged with old memories and a love that hasn't completely faded, but does she want him now that she has a new romance?
Faced with choosing between men is awkward at best, yet she can't forget the life she had with the earl. Evan might not be able to remember his life, but there is a certain connection between him and Vivian—his wife—and as he learns about himself and what he had before, he wants it again. The trouble is the new suitor as well as the underlying tension and animosity between them. A love for the ages can't be forgotten but it can be stolen away, and unless Evan and Vivian make a stand, they'll lose everything.
Reviews
Wow!
5By Peg1951Evan returns to London to find himself. He had an accident shortly after the war and suffers total amnesia on top of PTSD. He shocks his wife when he wanders into her ball. A note he has with him leads him to the Rogues Arcade, where he find a type of solace, men who know and remember him, a place to stary, and a reintroduction to his life. Vivian tries to understand what Evan needs, and is determined to be helpful. This is a dramatic story that touches your heart and holds your attention beginning to end. The story and the characters complex. Evan’s trauma from the war is compounded by his amnesia. Vivian must decide her future, with Evan or a new life. The Rogues are awesome. They and their wives are with the couple every inch of the way. The villain, who means to harm Evan and possess Vivian is a bit insane, and may be the clue to the new criminal network stalking the Rogues. Is there a happy ending? A happy ending and a different life. Fantastic addition to the series. I received an ARC of this book via BookSprout and voluntarily reviewed it.
