I was gifted a copy of Memory Lane by Becky Wade as an early birthday gift and can’t wait to dive in.
About the Book
After surviving a trauma several years back, Remy Reed relocated to a cottage on one of Maine’s most remote islands. She’s arranged her life just the way she wants it, spending her time working on her wood sculptures and soaking in the beauty of nature. It’s quiet and solitary—until the day she spots something bobbing in the ocean.
Her binoculars reveal the “something” to be a man, and he’s struggling to keep his head above water. She races out to save him and brings him into her home. He’s injured, which doesn’t detract from his handsomeness nor make him any easier to bear. He acts like a duke who’s misplaced his dukedom . . . expensive tastes, lazy charm, bossy ideas.
Remy would love nothing more than to return him to his people, but he has no recollection of his life prior to the moment she rescued him. Though she’s not interested in relationships other than the safe ones she’s already established, she begins to realize that he’s coming to depend on her.
Who is he? What happened that landed him in the Atlantic Ocean? And why is she drawn to him more and more as time goes by?
There’s no way to discover those answers except to walk beside him down memory lane.
Travel to the rocky coast of Maine for “opposites attract” banter, witty humor, a fascinating mystery, and destiny-changing love. This sweet contemporary romance kicks off Becky Wade’s new Sons of Scandal series!

Join the fun by leaving the first line of your current read in the comments then head over to Reading Is My Superpower to read more opening lines.
Looks really good, and that’s a great opening line! Happy Friday!
My first line comes from The Maid of Ballymacool by Jennifer Deibel:
County Donegal, Ireland September 1935
The slap had hit its mark, leaving a burning outline Brianna was certain showed perfectly on her cheek.
I’m currently reading Brooke by Ronie Kendig. It’s intense.
“Holy fires, it hurt to breathe. She wanted to slow down but knew she couldn’t.”
I hope you’re having a great weekend!
I’d like to read this one. I’m just beginning Kidnapped in Texas by Virginia Vaughan. The first line is: “Abby Mitchell crossed the street to drop a letter into the mailbox.” Hope you have a great week!
