It wasn't just the heroine's memories that that had been lost, but some of her other basic life skills had been temporarily damaged as well. It felt very real, especially how the heroine's language skills needed time to heal.
I really liked how the author portrayed the heroine's amnesia. Yet, this author is talented enough to keep this story feeling fresh and interesting all the way through the book. For instance: the amnesiac heroine, the dashing hero who's forced into working as a spy for his country, a pretend marriage, intrigue and gunfights, and a "big secret" that will destroy any hope of a relationship once the hero's lies are revealed. So many of the plot devices in this book could have felt tired or cliched. And as someone who reads 100+ books a year, a can't-put-it-down novel doesn't happen all that often. I devoured this book in a day-I just couldn't put it down. Sometimes, after reading a string of bad romance novels (and unfortunately, there are a lot of them out there), a book like A STRANGER'S KISS will remind me of why I read romance in the first place. Wow! Shelly Thacker is an author that I had to the good fortune to stumble upon by accident.
