What if you found him, the one who was put on this earth for you? He was your perfect partner, your soul mate. Your life with him was more than you could have ever hoped for. The two of you created an amazing family full of so much love. I did. And it was everything.Then, one day, I woke up, and he was gone. They were all gone.I can’t accept it. I’m stuck in a reality that isn’t mine, aching for … mine, aching for the life I lost, one that made up the very fabric of my soul.
How do I find my future when my past won’t stop pulling me under? I’m drowning, struggling to breathe in this existence where nothing makes sense. It might be crazy, and I might be as well.
But if you’d experienced the joy of a once-in-a-lifetime love, you’d be chasing memories, too.

As soon as I read the blurb for this book I knew Ellie would give us another one…
Another book that grips us, surprises us, makes us laugh, makes us smile. Another swoonworthy book boyfriend (Adien is definitely giving Andrés a run for the number one spot) Another strong female lead that isn’t afraid to follow her heart. Another unique storyline. Another book brimming with feelings.
Another win by Ellie Wade. 4.5 stars
I loved this book. You immediately fall in love with Mia and stay on her journey to find herself, her heart and her destiny.
WOW! Where to begin with this book! It was beyond stellar. I will admit I felt completely lost at the start, however once the ball started rolling it made more and more sense.
My heart utterly broke for Mia as she goes through the motions of her life after such tragedy. I adore her tenacity to not let go of what she felt was right. She was a complete fighter from the very beginning. Aiden is beyond swoon worthy! I loved the little tidbits through out the book then when things finally happened it was pure magic! Hard to describe with out giving spoilers! Either way these two were destined for each other!
What Ellie Wade did with this book was one of the most unique things I have ever seen. The writing flowed very well and yes though I felt lost at moments when I finally got it, it was like OMFG…. This story is beyond one of a kind and I highly recommend it to anyone who loves them some romance with a very very unique twist! Amazing novel by one amazing woman!
This book has lots of twists and turns and you won’t want to put it down once you start. Great read.
The book is really good but left you feeling like you didn’t get the ending
It was a really different story line. Loved it!
Interesting ending…kind of felt sorry for the man who stood by her side while she was in a coma, but no longer wanted after she woke up…until more was revealed.
***** 3.5 stars *****
Chasing Memories is an interesting look at the phenomenon of what could happen if one woke up and no longer recognized the life in which one lived. It is quite surreal and more than a little strange. I enjoyed the concept but struggled with the execution. My need to see how this plot resolved was intense. It kept me reading until the very end.
This novel tested my limits as a reader in the way the main character, Mia, was so committed to memories of a man she had never actually met and a life she never lived outside of her mind. In this respect I felt like many of the supporting characters in this book. I was frustrated in understanding how Mia created this world she was so sure of. I did enjoy reading about her memories and the relationship she had with Aiden and their children. I wanted her to have that life.
The interactions with Mia, her family, and her fianceé were tumultuous. I felt quite put out for her in her dealings with her mother and Grayson. I loved her relationship with her sister and niece. The way this story reinforces that love and support are essential to healing is a sentiment that I heartily appreciate.
I also appreciate this author’s willingness to experiment with a concept that is so very difficult to execute. The alternation between Mia’s present and her memories is a tough world to navigate. It makes for and interesting read.
This is a unique story that had me intrigued from the beginning. I wasn’t quite sure what to expect and I have to say it was a pleasant surprise. The story is different and one that makes you really think about life and if premonitions really exist. If we are where we are supposed to be or if we need to keep searching for true happiness? I will definitely be reading more by this author and recommend others do the same.
Did not enjoy this book. Kept reading just to find out what happened. Very disappointed.
Good story. I felt like this book would have benefited from a Readers Digest Condensed book editor to get out all the repetitious drivel. It was like when they make a movie that would have been a good 1/2 hour tv show.
Fun to read. Interesting easy read and very intertwining. Keeps you guessing.
This was one hard book to put down. You wanted to read so fast just to get to the end. Your truly felt for the characters. The loved expressed was so touching & deep. I wish we could all find a love like this. Will look for more from this wonderful author.
It was enjoyable, but not believable.
