Description
Summary:A girl with recurring memory loss chases down the boy she loves based on the one memory she is able to hold onto.
For the past seven years Flora Banks has no short-term memory. Her mind resets itself several times a day, and has since the tumor was removed from her brain at the age of ten. Then when she kisses Drake, her best friend's boyfriend, the night before he leaves town, this one memory breaks through Flora's fractured mind and sticks. She's convinced that Drake is making her whole again. When an email from Drake suggests she meet him on the other side of the world-- in Svalbard, Norway-- will this be the first step toward reclaiming her life? Or will the journey reveal that nothing is quite as it seems?
