Always Remember is the final book in the final book in the memories series and I am sad that these characters' stories are finished. While I really liked book one Never Forget, Always Remember is definitely my favorite book in the series. Two stubborn as hell characters + snarky romance + a little heat = a really great book.
Synopsis:
How long does it take for a long-distance relationship to break down? Sixteen months.
When Jen and Carl put their relationship to rest after Christmas, Jen’s biggest problem is going back to London ten days earlier than planned – and her ever-present attraction to Samuel ‘Bing’ Edwards.
Bing has no idea why Jen left Devon so fast. All he knows is that he wants her as much as he did the first day he laid eyes on her – so spending time with her while Lexy is still in Devon isn’t exactly a hardship for him. When he finds out she’s single, the only thing on his mind is finishing what they started at his dad’s fiftieth birthday party.
Feelings that have been a long time building between the two explode, and they both find themselves sucked into an easy yet passionate relationship, with Bing determined to prove to Jen that she’s it for him. That she is The One.
But in a city like London, the odds are stacked against them, and there’s always that one person ready to stir things up… And Jen doesn’t know how much of that she can take – even for the guy she loves more deeply than she ever imagined, and eventually she breaks.
Bing isn’t down with that. He wants Jen, and he wants her by his side for good.

Jennifer Mason must learn that Samuel Edwards doesn’t do giving up. Especially not when his forever girl is involved.
Review: Always Remember was a really fun and really great read. I loved Bing/Sam in book one and couldn't wait to see him knocked down a peg. The cocky guy always needs to be brought back down to Earth ;). Jen is a complete ball buster, but it was nice to get an in depth look at her, because as it is true for all humans who walk this planet, there is more than meets the eye.
I liked the build up to the romance in the book. It is chalk full of character evolution which is really fantastic. I have said again and again that Emma Hart does character development extremely well, and Always Remember lives up to that legacy. It's a really fun book with tons of great character interaction and tension.
I liked the dynamic between Lexy, Jen, Bing and Alec being further explored. It was really funny to be in Bing's head when he knew he was being a sap and who he compares himself to in those moments. I also liked that even though Bing is a player, Emma characterized him in such a way that he didn't come off as a bad boy. It was nice to read about a semi-normal group of people with very real and relatable issues.
I'm definitely sad to see this series wrap up. I've become very partial to these characters that Emma Hart has created. Her characters are vibrant, and people you feel like you could be friends with. It also helps that they aren't bat-shit crazy like some characters out in the NA book world today. Emma Hart has created a great series with lot's of heart and good feelings.
If you haven't started the memories series, start with book one. It's a really great series and I highly recommend them! For those of you who need this book now, lucky you it's out EARLY!
That means you can buy it on Amazon US HERE, or Smashwords HERE, or Amazon UK HERE!
5/5 OH YEAH I LOVED IT
By day, New York Times
and USA Today bestselling New Adult
author Emma Hart dons a cape and calls herself Super Mum to a terrible two year
old and growing bump, due September 2013. By night, she drops the cape, pours a
glass of juice and writes books.
She likes to write about magic, kisses and
whatever else she can fit into the story. Sarcastic, witty characters are a
must. As are hot guys.
Emma is currently working too many books to even count -
including Playing for Keeps, the companion book to New York Times and USA Today
bestselling novel, The Love Game. She likes to be busy - unless busy involves
doing the dishes, but that seems to when all the ideas come to life.
