Lynne Graham's latest book is the last in a three-book series on 3 friends whose parents died in a car crash. The friendship part is very loose (not a central part of the series). That's a major relief after her last trilogy attempt, about 3 separated sisters (same mother, different fathers) who were given up for adoption.

In this book, the last one, Hilary was 19 when she first met Roel Sabatino, a wealthy Swiss banker. They made a marriage of convenience to fulfil the terms of his grandfather's will, but had not seen each other for 4 years, ever since the wedding. Roel gets hurt in a car accident, and his aunt finds an old photo of Hilary, signed "From your wife" in Roel's wallet, so she decides to call Hilary and have her look after Roel (the aunt being too busy with her own vacation plans, and not seriously worried about Roel's injury). Hilary, having harbored a secret crush on Roel ever since they first met, rushes over, only to find that Roel has lost his memory. So she decides to play along, hoping to create a few memories with Roel before he remembers everything and sends her away again...
