Heroine sparks, hero forgets

I was actually pretty fond of Kali, the heroine. She had some spark. Though I feel like she was a bit young for the kind of nursing position she had. Kali had serious goals, including being a pet foster. (Loved that part.)

While the writing was clunky at times, I liked their friendship. Romance felt really empty, however.

I didn't always follow the passages that cidef too immature. Craig had too much self loathing and Kali felt too much guilt. Yet those times with Chip, a stray kitten, or walking around the city trying to help figure out who he is really worked. His stories about working as a construction worker were relatable. I liked that it wasn't easy.

Unfortunately, the one major plot line felt too forced. I don't understand the romance. And there were logistics of plot movement that stayed unanswered, the antagonist's motivations. Superficial level yet major plot devices.

Author describes it as a sweet/clean romance, but there are sensual scenes that don't turn sexual. There wasn't any closed door elements at all. I got tired of hearing about Kalu's beauty. Seemed misplaced for a guy with amnesia to focus on that.
