Forget What You Can't Remember (Lost and Not Found, #2)

Zombies! Doomsday! And someone who actually finished writing a novel in a month! Mary, Lance, Brady, Lorraine, and the Sergeant are a handful of the survivors from a zombie outbreak that decimates a city. Each of them responds a little differently in the aftermath of the tragedy and to the inexplicable and possibly unrelated memory loss some of them seem to be suffering. Paul is obsessed with a worldwide cataclysmic event he's been predicting for years, and while everyone else seems able to go on with their lives in its wake, he just can't let it go. Add a utopian city in the sky and a mathematician who can fly, then watch all these elements intersect and converge in a place where some see a moral void and others can't escape deep questions of right and wrong. Forget What You Can't Remember explores everything from economics and ethics to politics, post-traumatic recovery and the loneliness of heroism. If it doesn't leave you guessing, it'll at least get you thinking. The unexplained event which changed the world at the end of Lost and Not Found is just days away, and Paul thinks he's found the perfect place to hide; the high-tech flying city of Skythia. Meanwhile, Lorraine, Mary, Lance, and Brady are attending the Sergeant's zombie-readiness training camp when word comes in that there's been a major zombie outbreak in Denver - and the Sergeant is taking all his half-trained campers along with him to attempt containment. Not long after the world is remade by the unseen event into something a little more fantastic than it was before, Skythia hurries to the aid of Denver's survivors, taking the uninfected aboard and offering them all the benefits of its utopian society. As Skythia's newest residents try to come to terms with the apparent paradise all around them, the traumas of fighting zombies and the unanswered mystery of what the event really did to them continues to torment each survivor in their own way. Finding love and holding on to it, finding their place in a future of limitless possibility, and learning to let go of a past they can't easily recall prove to be more difficult than anyone expected. Some will be driven to madness, others to dangerous obsession, and when a superhero who shouldn't really exist shows up, everything they've been working for in life and in love comes to a violent and destructive intersection which threatens the existence of the entire solar system. Not everyone will survive, but they'll all be forced to face their own missteps and to deal with the irreversible consequences. Selling her jewelry designs is on the top of Temair O'Hara's agenda. That is, until sexy Brit Evan Lyndsay stops by her booth at the trade show and sets off a series of fantasies that leave Temair breathless. Sure, she wants him to recognize her talent as an artist. A contract with his company would make all her professional dreams come true. But after a few heated exchanges, she begins to realize he may have designs on her for reasons other than her talent. And that would be just fine with her. If he weren't so much younger. Evan has a thing for sexy feet and legs. A big thing. And one woman in particular has a set that sends his libido into overdrive. But she seems reluctant to see in herself all that he does. Perhaps some special attention to the area he loves will loosen her up and make her open to all he has to offer. Because now that he's had her in his bed, he has no plans to let her go
