Forget Me Not

MWSA Review

When chance and a stray cat bring them together, Sky and Daisy find themselves caught up in the rotorwash of a doomed romance. A woman who can't forget the past and a pilot with a Peter Pan complex; what are their chances at any kind of future together? When history looks like it's repeating itself, Daisy hopes that through trust and forgiveness perhaps she has another chance at love... if it's not too late.

In her second romance novel, Forget Me Not, Heather Ashby takes our hand as the initial sparks fly, and leads us down a path of love and second chances. The author builds on layers of romance, heartache, secrets, and passion to reveal a past which won't permit either character to trust in a future together. Ms. Ashby's characters are real and engaging; the reader becomes entangled in the convoluted relationship between the doctor and the pilot, and caught up in their secrets: the pasts which haunt them.

Forget Me Not takes us on a tender journey of passion, romance, and hope. I found myself believing, if only for a while, in second chances at love. I look forward to reading Heather Ashby's other romance novels.

Between one stray, matchmaking cat and fiery battles with drug runners at sea, the fur flies as Sky and Daisy learn valuable lessons about life, love, and second chances.
