As a teen, Texas Ranger Felicity Capshaw witnessed a murder. The traumatic incident—and the accompanying amnesia—has affected her entire life. She reopens the cold case, but the investigation is cut short when she’s assaulted and nearly killed.
Detective Noah Hodge is no stranger to loss. He’s buried his parents and his wife. All he wants is to raise his daughter and keep his hometown safe. When the killer targets Felicity, Noah commits to protecting her, even though each second in her presence makes him question why he’s locked away his battered heart.
As Felicity's memories return, the threats escalate. Can Noah help her uncover the truth? Or will the killer silence her forever?

My Thoughts:
Fractured Memories was a quick, fun read full of suspense and action from the beginning to the end.
The main characters, Noah and Felicity, had been friends for years before the book began. They had grown up together and had been through many of life's ups and downs. Both were now in law enforcement and working a case together.
It is most definitely a friends-to-more trope which I do enjoy a great deal. The author did a great job of giving back-story to make it believable even though the book itself took place over only a few days (except for the epilogue, of course).
I loved Harper's character. She was the epitome of a precocious 2 year old :) Aunt Imogene was also very lovable.
There were cameos of what I'm assuming were characters from prior books by this author, but it was a great stand alone book and is the first book of a new series.
I am very excited and thankful to review this book today!
I voluntarily reviewed a complimentary copy of this book which I received from the author. All views expressed are only my honest opinion.
Onto the next book :)
This sounds like one I might like. More drama than romance is what I like. thanks for the great review!!
