Steven and Laura Thompson have the ideal marriage and the birth of Annie only strengthens their bond. Life seems perfect until everything changes in an instant with one man's careless decision, leaving Laura a widow. Laura struggles to move on with life but unimaginable tragedy strikes again. While shoveling her elderly neighbor's snowy walk, a careening car slams into her on an icy street, resulting in no memory of either Steven or Annie! Laura grapples to make sense of the missing pieces of her past while living in the present with a daughter she can't remember, a friend she must learn to trust and a future filled with uncertainties. A memory box, handcrafted by her elderly neighbor and given to her at Christmas, is filled with precious mementos in the hopes she will one day remember. As Laura fights for survival, her eventual surrender to a God of love brings hope, healing and wholeness to her shattered life.

Chasing Memories is Book One in The Memory Box trilogy. Each book in the series is a stand-a-lone, however to find out how the full story goes, and ends, you will want to read all three, Chasing Memories, Shades of Blue and Crystal Clear.
Chasing Memories is the story of Laura, a widow, raising her young daughter, Amy, alone. Shades of Blue is the story of Susan, Amy's former babysitter and Laura's best friend. It continues the story from where it left off in Chasing Memories. Crystal Clear is the story of Amy, now grown, and the ending will connect the three stories together for you and you'll be surprised at how the story changes along the way. There is a surprise twist at the end.
When I started writing Chasing Memories, I wanted to write about a memory box, such as my own. Memory Boxes are a sentimental way of saving your most treasured memories from the past.
