Publisher's summary

The top-selling, beloved indie author of Ten Tiny Breaths returns with a new romance about a young woman who loses her memory - and the man who knows that the only way to protect her is to stay away.

Left for dead in the fields of rural Oregon, a young woman defies all odds and survives - but she awakens with no idea who she is, or what happened to her. Refusing to answer to "Jane Doe" for another day, the woman renames herself "Water" for the tiny, hidden marking on her body - the only clue to her past. Taken in by old Ginny Fitzgerald, a crotchety but kind lady living on a nearby horse farm, Water slowly begins building a new life. But as she attempts to piece together the fleeting slivers of her memory, more questions emerge: Who is the next-door neighbor, quietly toiling under the hood of his Barracuda? Why won’t Ginny let him step foot on her property? And why does Water feel she recognizes him?

Twenty-four-year-old Jesse Welles doesn’t know how long it will be before Water gets her memory back. For her sake, Jesse hopes the answer is never. He knows that she’ll stay so much safer - and happier - that way. And that’s why, as hard as it is, he needs to keep his distance. Because getting too close could flood her with realities better left buried.

The trouble is, water always seems to find its way to the surface.

wow! I could not stop listening!

Where does Burying Water rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

The five stars says it all! I will listen to it again!

Who was your favorite character and why?

Jesse all the way!

Have you listened to any of Josh Goodman and Elizabeth Louise ’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

I haven't listened to these two but I really enjoyed them.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

Yes! But couldn't, however, but when I wasnt listening I was thinking about it!

Any additional comments?

The only thing I didn't like is the language, however it didn't stop me from listening because I was hooked from the get go.

One of the Best Series I've Read

Love this book in the series by KA Tucker. The way she tells the story of all these people who connect to her other story is enthralling. I also love how it's told from both sides...male and female. This series is so well written and keeps my attention even past the end. Can't wait to read the next one.

Would make a good TV movie.

I liked the mystery with the romance. Clear Then and Now sequencing, which is needed.
