Not everyone believes in the existence of 'the one', the love of our life that we are destined to find, but Daniel knows it's real. How could he not? He has spent centuries meeting and falling in love with the same girl over and over and over again. Life after reincarnated life, generation after generation, spanning continents and dynasties, he and Lucy have been drawn together - and though he can never tell her, he remembers it all. He has the gift, or the curse, of 'the memory' - the ability to recall past lives and recognize the reincarnated souls he has known. The problem is that the force that draws Lucy and Daniel together also always tears them painfully, fatally apart, to the point that he has started trying to protect her from falling in love with him and the heartbreak he knows it will bring.
'Calling all Twilight fans!' Glamour 'The centuries-old background to their story is as compelling as the action in the present and makes their constant near misses tear-provokingly frustrating. And the involvement of Daniel's evil brother adds the heart-racing pace of this thriller. It's a book that will inevitably draw comparisons to The Time Traveller's Wife, and stands up well to that modern classic' News of the World 'A well-written love story' Heat 'Life change alert: this spellbinding epic will alter your views on relationships and death. From the Byzantine era in 520AD to Virginia in 2009, Daniel pursues and loses his beloved Sophia because of his ability to hold memory from past lives. We can't wait for the film adaptation - the team behind Pretty Woman won the bidding war' Grazia 'Twilight 2.0? Edward and Bella have competition: this love story spans 1,000 years, has other-worldly flavour, and two sequels planned. Plus, the movie rights have already been sold' InStyle 'it has everything you could want from a good book ... I cannot recommend this book highly enough ... I suggest you all add it to your summer reading list. You won't be disappointed' daisychainbookreviews.blogspot.com 'There are a lot of books I like and there are a lot of books I love and this is by far a love that I'm sure if I was to read it again and again I would see it a new light each time. I can not wait to read the next in the series.' thereadingsofabusymum.blogspot.com 'It's the type of book that takes all those questions we ask ourselves about destiny and the meaning of life and explores them so convincingly that it's almost as thought the author has stumbled upon a secret. Magical'. I Was A Teenage Book Geek '[T]his beautifully written novel is already on its way to becoming a Hollywood movie'. Star Magazine 'This clever story about someone trying to catch-up with a long lost love, will be a hit with fans of Branshares'. Press Association A magical, suspenseful, heartbreaking story of true love... American Saturday Review My Name is Memory is a captivating, open-ended story that begs for a sequel. I'll be watching for it. Long and Short Reviews
