Why I love it

Emma Grey knocked it out of the park with her previous book, The Last Love Note. I professed my love for her incredible writing to anyone who would listen all year, so when I heard her next book was on its way, I immediately jumped at the chance to get my hands on it. And wow, does Pictures of You deliver. At the heart of this story is a beautiful, complex romance, but as I came to love in Emma Grey’s first book, there’s an incredible depth to the journey our characters will go on.
Evie Hudson has just woken up in the hospital when she’s told the worst news imaginable: she was in a car crash that killed her husband. Only there’s a problem… Evie doesn’t have a husband. It turns out that her husband was not the only victim of the crash; all of Evie’s memories post-high school are gone, too. Now nearly 30, she’s terrified to discover how much she has to catch up on. After fleeing the hospital in what she thinks is an Uber, she meets a man with whom she and her husband had a tumultuous past. As the two of them grapple with her trauma and attempt to piece her memories back together, they develop a deep—and extremely complicated—bond that can’t be ignored.
Pictures of You is a gripping adventure that will take you through the full spectrum of human emotion. It’s a second-chance romance with so much more, and it will leave you reflecting on what choices got you where you are today. Pick up this book and follow Evie as she decides whether remembering her past is worth risking her future.
