Blog Tour - Blank Slate

Author: Heather Justesen
Publisher: Jelly Bean Press

Adrianna Mueller may be a world-renowned concert pianist, but when she wakes from her coma after a serious car accident, her ability to perform has disappeared as completely as her lost memory. As she recovers from her injuries, she struggles with the expectations of everyone—her family, friends, and fiancĂ©, Brock—who all want everything to go back to the way it was.

Everyone except Gavin, Adrianna’s brother’s business partner, who finds himself drawn to the woman she is now. But he has his own problems. As he tries to get a handle on a former employee’s embezzlement, he fights his growing feelings for Adrianna.

And then a trip to the emergency room shakes everything up, leaving her to stumble as she tries to regain her footing all over again.

Sometimes a book just grabs you and doesn't let go. Blank Slate was one of those books. I couldn't put it down. Imagine what it would feel like if you woke up from an accident and everyone told you the you were one person, but you felt like someone else? The author does a great job of exploring that subject in this book. The romance was very sweet. I loved Gavin's character. He is the only one who really accepts Adrianna for who she is after the accident.

Blank Slate is beautifully and well written. Even though it wasn't hard to see where the story was headed, I still enjoyed getting there with everyone in the book. I don't want to give too much away, though. Let's just say I wasn't surprised halfway through.

I definitely recommend Blank Slate. In fact, Ms. Justesen has arranged for her book to be sold at a discount. From now until July 31, 2011, you can purchase Blank Slate on Smashwords for $1.49. Go here for details and enter code WV49Z to get the discount. Enjoy!
