What if you would never remember the day you made the most important decision of your life?
Max is amazing—sexy, sweet, and kind. I was starting to believe happily-ever-after might be in my future after all. Then the unthinkable happened and my world imploded. If I’m going to make this work with Max, I need my missing memories, or at least answers from about those five days before my accident.
That’s what they’re telling me about the day of my accident—the day I put on Max’s ring and chose him over Nate. I’m counting on the wisdom behind a decision I don’t remember making.

“You can’t love someone the way they deserve when half of your heart still belongs to someone else.”I have loved this series from the beginning. The premise pulled me in immediately: One night you are out celebrating with friends, and then the next morning you wake up with everything you’ve ever dreamed of: a great job, the perfect boyfriend, and a new body. The only thing is… it’s not the next morning. You’ve lost your memory and it’s actually 11 months later, and not everything is as it seems.
The first two books end in cliffhangers. The second book being the less tolerable ending of the two. I’ve been counting the days to get my hands on All For This (book 3). At the same time, I was a little nervous. The author has done such a great job building the characters and their relationships; I thought I would be left unsatisfied no matter how it ended.
How do you even choose between Max and Nate? It seemed every time I decided what team I was on the game switched up, and I found myself rooting for the other team. These guys were so perfect in so many ways, and each brought out a different side of Hanna, but in the end there was only one guy perfect for Hanna.“It’s different because you’re mine more than you were ever his. You might love him, but you need me. And if you choose him, you’ll always wonder if you and I could have made it work.”
Lexi Ryan has teased us throughout these books. Slowly revealing the events and mystery leading up to Hanna’s accident that caused the loss of her memory. There have been times when the new revelations only left me with more questions. FINALLY, we get all the answers! This book was full of surprises as we learn what happened in those days before and the day of the accident. We find out who did it, who Hanna chose before her accident, and why… and it’s SOOOOO good!
This is a series you don’t want to miss. The suspense. The plot twist. The angst. The Heart-pounding moments. The swoony men. The laughs. The tears. It has it all, and it was all worth it. There wasn’t a book in this series that I could put down. In the end, All For This ended up being the perfect conclusion to a wonderful, well thought out series.
Once a college English professor, I now write full time. I live in rural Indiana, where, when I’m not writing, I get to hang out with my husband and two kids–a six-year-old boy and a two-year-old hellion, er, girl. Not surprisingly, reading and writing remain my favorite activities, though both come in bits and pieces these days, not the big hunks of time I enjoyed before I had children. When I’m feeling virtuous, I like to go running (I use that word liberally. I’m really, really slow) or do yoga. Don’t worry, I’m always careful to balance out such activities with a hearty serving of ice cream or a chocolate martini.
