Can Hallee and Dean overcome a world where all is forgotten and prove that hearts remember a great love...even if minds do not?

To live in a world where all is forgotten, I think I would...

There's nothing worse than being alone, in Hallee's humble opinion. Extremely ironic, considering The Gift of Forgetting forces a fresh start every New Year's Day, rendering it nearly impossible to get attached to anyone. Surely the promised "wild and free" life wasn't supposed to include Hallee's obsessive hyperfixation on questioning her purpose---right? After all...what purpose would that serve?

Unfortunately, drowning herself in copious amounts of vanilla lattes doesn't medicate her growing anxiety. (What a surprise!) So when Dean, a true gentleman with galaxy eyes and a kind heart, offers an escape from her ever-present intrusive thoughts, getting attached doesn't seem like such a challenge.

Hallee and Dean are better together. They're a cup of coffee while watching the sunrise, the first flower after a long winter, and a desperate wish on a shooting star. But as New Year's Day quickly approaches, they're forced to face the ultimate question...are people permanently marked by the experiences of their lives?

Can the great love of Hallee and Dean prove that hearts remember---even if minds do not?

In the end, love conquers all...doesn't it?

Hallee is representative of those with OCD, and more specifically the "just right" and "existential" subtypes.

Dean is representative of the gentlemen who are gentle-men. I feel there is a lack of representation in modern romances for the men who lead with kindness, gentleness, patience, and self-control. My goal while writing his character was to maintain and depict those qualities for the importance they hold!
