Forgotten
By Donna Conger

     When I began to read Forgotten, I felt as if time stood still for me, just as it did for Sylvia, the heroine. While it is hard to imagine what your life would be like if you suddenly had no memory of your past--the good or the bad--the thought of such a feeling sent shivers up and down my spine.

    Can you imagine what it would be like to move in with the man you had been told was your husband, but who was a complete stranger to you? Forgotten is a strong story of the two main characters’ faith, as well as a tale of rediscovery. While Robert could tell her about their love and their relationship the first time around, he chose not to for some time. He decided to let her fall in love with him on her own terms. It took an absence when Robert went overseas for Sylvia to realize how much she had come to love him.

     It did not take long until I was completely captivated by the getting-to-know-me stage, to the trust-me stage Sylvia and Robert went through, until it finally got to the love-me stage.

    The appearance of Allan, their son, who was a stranger to Sylvia moved me to tears when he said softly, "I love the new you, Mommy" and Sylvia replied "I love you, too."

     To see the growth from strangers who had once known each other and been in love to new-found love is far more than a mere romance; it is a love story of the deepest kind.

       I urge anyone who questions whether or not true love exists to read Forgotten. You will know it is alive and well. I highly recommend this wonderful book.
