When Anne Strafford wakes from a coma in a New York City hospital, she has no memory of who she is, how she got there, or why the handsome movie star, Jack Post, sleeps by her bedside. She certainly doesn't remember getting cosmetic surgery, or the accident that scarred her once beautiful face. A private investigator later questions if any of her resurfaced memories-from her love of skydiving to even her assumed name-are real. While piecing together her past, Anne makes distressing discoveries. Her husband has filed for divorce. Her twin sister won't speak to her. Everyone she's ever loved has shattered in her wake. Yet how can Anne fix a forgotten life?

Dive into Forgetting Me and follow an intimate journey of self-discovery that asks some of life's toughest questions. What truly defines us? Our greatest triumphs, or worst mistakes? And are we more than the sum of our experiences?

With bravery and determination, one woman will confront the echoes of her past in order to embrace an unforgettable future.
