Books & Spoons Review: FORGOTTEN MEMORIES by Laura Scott

FORGETTING THE PAST CAN BE DEADLY...

When Gabriella Fielding is kidnapped, she's terrified...until she's rescued by SWAT cop Shane Hawkins.
Running for cover, Shane vows to protect the beautiful doctor who once saved his life. But can he really believe her claims that she has no knowledge about why her captors set their sights on her?

Or is she hiding a dangerous secret?

Somehow Shane has to help Gabby unlock her buried memories--before their mutual attraction breaks down the barriers around his heart.

And before a desperate enemy determined to keep the past hidden strikes again and makes sure Gabby never remembers.

The story started with a bang, intense action right from the beginning, and after that the book was hard to put down, until the end.
There are several twists in the suspense part of the story, twist that kept the tension high, and the danger present and accounted for. Interesting theories, with little evidence, keeps the SWAT team's investigation focus on  Gabby's past. The pressure is on the SWAT team, since the culprits don't seem to have much respect for human life, as dead bodies keep showing up.
Shane is doing everything he can to keep Gabby well and alive. He has had feelings for her ever since they first met, and she saved his life. But can he trust the attraction between them, or is it only gratitude for keeping her safe? I liked how the romance was built between Shane and Gabby, the openness, honesty, and sharing his faith was refreshing. The fact that they talked about their feelings openly, made it real, and easy to relate to.
I liked every aspect of the story, the events are timed well, the suspense and action are perilous, the romance believable and earnest, the faith they had in God, and how it was demonstrated, was reassuring and comforting
