Memory Walker
Imagine
having the ability to walk in a person's memory at the slightest touch of their
skin.
High
school rumors are the worst. In fact, high school’s the worst. Especially for
the school freak who has to avoid human contact.
Freshman year, seventeen-year-old Thea Scott developed the suckiest burden ever. At the brief touch of a person’s skin, she’s forced to walk in their memories. She’d give anything to get rid of this ability—one she can’t control. Well, until the first day of senior year when breathtakingly gorgeous Cole Conway strolls through the auditorium doors and she faints, making an utter fool of herself, again. He acts like he knows her secret, and the last thing she wants is to end up in a lab with her brain in a jar. To protect herself, she decides to do the very thing she runs from, use her ability to enter his memories.
What she didn’t expect to find: out-of-this-world beings who have to “borrow” life essence from humans to survive. Cole unveils dangers she never imagined existed and turns out her own past is her greatest fear. The deeper she falls, the more turmoil and heartbreak crash into her. Dreams of fitting in soon dissolve, and she realizes it was way easier being just a high school freak.

Review: ♥ ♥ ♥ ❣
Cole is the new boy at school. He is the first boy Thea has an interest in, since she gained her ability. When she touches him she doesn't see his memories. Thea wants to learn more and needs to know more fast.
Thea lost her family and lives with her Aunt. The doctors have already tested her condition but now she just wants to be left alone. Cole is about to open doors to new possibilities.
Memory Walker is a mystery book which starts to unravel by about 20% but I feel I shouldn't give anything away. I've read similar themed books and they seem to be a popular choice at the moment. This one is full of twists and turns. Thea has a secret she doesn't remember. There will be dangers and redemption. This book will leave you wanting more.
An interesting read with some creative ideas. The romance was ok in this book, however I'm hoping it will heat up in the next instalment. 3.5 stars out of 5. It has potential but the next book will make or break this story.
*I received an ARC in exchange for an honest review.
I love
writing and reading about love. There’s nothing better than two characters
finding each other in unusual situations and conquering all odds to be
together. *Sigh* Regardless the genre – paranormal, contemporary, fantasy – if
there’s romance—I wanna read it!
I was
born in Hawai’i but grew up most of my life in the sticks of Michigan and the
sunny beaches of Florida. After graduating high school, I return to my island
ohana for college where I wrote my thesis on how to write a young adult book.
(Oddly enough)
Wife,
mother, dog owner, and author, my hat constantly changes but I love every
minute of the hustle. Writing is my passion and the wonderful nagging voice in
my head. I’m blessed to have amazing family and friends who’ve supported me
from my first story, written in poor phonics and elementary chicken scratch.
