Review: Sweet, but with gaping plot holes

Warning: Review contains some spoilers (though some have already alluded to or stated)I don't mind suspending belief on some greater issues (e.g. the whole amnesia thing itself), but there were some things I couldn't quite get over, like the fact that nobody seemed able to find Nash the first time around - one would think a rich and successful Texas businessman wouldn't be that easy to misplace - and the fact that, once they suspect that Nash is in danger, they hire a bodyguard without even requesting said bodyguard's references or CV. In my mind, it just dumbs down what might have otherwise been a rather nice little story.In terms of writing style, I also had a little bit of a problem with the writer's reliance on both characters' 'inner' voices to describe their conflicting feelings; sometimes she achieved an effect closer to split personality than conflict.That being said, this was a pleasant couple of hours' read, fairly fast-paced, and the characters were likeable enough, so overall I'd rate it OK, though not worth keeping on my Kindle for a re-read.
