This love story really touched my heart. This poor man suffered for the time that he was without his wife. When he gets her back she does not remember him and so the story goes... I was enchanted by the deep and passionate love the male had for his wife and how he fought for this love. This author is great at letting the reader understands how the male feels and well as the female. I would recommend this book highly.

Back Cover description: IS THIS STRANGER REALLY HER HUSBAND? For a year, Samantha has been existing with no memory of her previous life. But when a dark, stunningly handsome Italian walks into her life, Sam's past is about to be revealed...When Sam sees Andre Visconte, she faints clean away. Is her body's instinctive response to him telling her that she's recognized him? However, there are further shocks in store, the first of which is Andre's insistence that hi is her husband!

Good tight story. Sam has been in an auto accident. She has lost her memory, and no one has claimed her for over a year. Then her husband finds her. There are the usual plot twists, and the sexual tension is great. I've been tracking down all of the Michelle Reid books since I read ARABIAN LOVE CHILD (catchy title!), and this is one of the better ones. Try it.

I usually enjoy a romance with an amnesia plot. They tend to be tension filled with a big surprise toward the end. I did not, however, enjoy Unforgettable Husband because the characters were rude and obstinate with each other way too often.

Samantha has amnesia after her automobile accident. When she was released from the hospital no one came forward with any clues to her identity so she stayed in the small English Village where the accident occurred and works in a run down hotel.

Andre Visconte thought his wife walked out of their marriage and he is relieved to discover after a year long search that she is alive. He is surprised about her amnesia though.

When Samantha meets Andre she instantly dislikes him, after he proves she is his wife she resents him even more. She desires to know her past but seems generally unwilling to discover it. Samantha has quite an uncontrollable temper on her; she actually hits Andre and tells him within a few days how much she hates him. This is before she discovers her past. Andre can be overbearing though when it comes to protecting and caring for Samantha.

These two seem to know each other in the bedroom where Samantha has no problem jumping into a physical relationship with Andre. She appears almost sex starved, she even recognizes this. However Andre is harboring some secrets which are detrimental in his relationship with his wife.

I stopped caring about this couple about half way into the novel. Samantha comes across as childish and irrational and Andre is just too controlling. They only connect in the bedroom mainly because Samantha is willing to forgo her suspicions about Andre because he just turns her on so very much. Hard to believe this is the same girl who argues most of the time with Andre whenever they are outside the bedroom

If you love alpha males, well this is the book for you!!! Now this is a good romance.
Faithful? Hell yes
Favorite? Yes, definitely, a book to read over and over

The characters were angry a lot and there was desire, but didn't really feel the love. Andre always appeared angry, mean, and cold.
