Justin’s recovery is slow, but any step forward is a win in Dallas’ eyes. Having always been a source of strength for Justin, even before the accident, Dallas is trying to find his feet again as he struggles to get some normalcy back in their lives.
But now, with added financial pressures and Justin’s ongoing medical needs, Dallas isn’t sure how much longer he can be the strong one.
As missing pieces of Justin’s memory return, Justin realises the physical side of their relationship is another piece of the puzzle he desperately wants to put back together. And as he gets to know Dallas all over again, he realizes what his mind can’t remember, his heart can’t forget.
I was so happy to discover ‘Pieces of You‘ was only the first installment in a trio of ‘Missing Pieces‘. Not because the first book felt incomplete but because I wasn’t quite done with them. I’m a fan of amnesia romance and this particular case walks the line of light angst with heavy fluff and it was just what I was looking for this past week! Things pick up from the final pages of book one, so be sure to snag it before you come here. Actually, save yourself another trip and just get all three…I’m sure you’ll want to see this through!
The pace is leisurely as it mimics Justin’s progress. This is not a race and for as many steps forward, he stumbles back a time or two. The best part about it is he is never alone. Dallas has stood by his side, steady and solid in Justin’s recovery. And Justin is getting better. Frustration rattles his patience but he’s determined to find his way back to the life he had before that pivotal day. As much as I adore Justin and Dallas, I also enjoyed the rest of their chosen family. And with a surprising twist, they are welcomed with open arms into another family. The pieces are coming together, maybe a bit differently, and with new ones replacing those lost, but piece by piece they are slotting back in place.
As things begin to come back together there’s a surge of elation and gratitude and the pages flew by. I’ll be honest and tell you I did fret a bit. I worried about Dallas and his unwavering strength. I worried about Justin and his grief over his lost memories. I worried about Davo and Sparra over the strain of holding the business going. But…I’ll tell you a secret; it was all for not. This second segment was all about healing and rebuilding. The fog is clearing and pieces are nestling together…it was beautiful to witness. AND!! We have one more final story to go…I think I’ll head there now. I have a strong feeling I’ll see you back here soon!
Clearly, this needs to be read in proper order, start the beginning, please! Since this is focused on healing, of the body and mind, the intimacy is appropriate. And plan on swooning and awwing, for it is flufftactular!
Of course, Walker fans and amnesia romance lovers will want to check out this lovely reconnection. If you’re searching for tender and sweet, try these two..they left me with a huge smile on my face.
