This was my first experience with Kristen Heitzmann books. She is a wonderful Christian writter and I enjoyed the book. I am reading another of her books and have a third one waiting to be read.

Another reviewer summed up my feelings about this book pretty well. The dialogue is good, particularly between Jade and Cameron (Kai), the protagonists of Heitzmann's novel. The book could have benefited from some judicious editing, but overall the story flows along nicely, like a stream exiting a mountain.

The one nagging problem I had was with Jade (aka, Gentry Fox, an actress). Why on earth would any Christian assume that he or she could immerse themselves in the world of acting, film and television and spend countless hours with nonbelievers and come out unscathed, faith intact, given what Paul wrote at 1 Corinthians 15:33 ("Bad associations spoil useful habits.")? Given that this culture in particular idolizes actors, why would any Christian put themselves on a pedestal this way? How is Christ honored by people screaming your name?

Anyone who belives, as Jade/Gentry does, that their faith will remain intact in spite of their chosen occupation and the risks it entails is delusional.

I finished the book in one sitting. It's really not that bad, considering some of the truly idiotic Christian fiction out there, but it's not the greatest novel I've ever read. I'm hoping some of Heitzmann's other books are better.

This was a great book about a movie star that loses her memory for a short while because of a accident while on vacation, she gets some of her memory back, this book was very good and hard to put down toward the end, I would reccommend it!

A beautiful young woman tumbles down a waterfall in Hawaii, losing her memory and almost her life. What happens next is a nicely done bit of Christian fiction. I loved Heitzmann's characters, and how she presented so much Hawaiian culture without jamming down the reader's throat.
