I’m catching up on my Christmas books! lol Do you ever do that? Buy books you fully intend to read during a certain season and end up reading them months later?
This week I read another Love Inspired Suspense, this one Holiday Amnesia by Lynette Eason. It was one I could not put down and stayed up WAY too late to finish. Here’s the back cover copy:
With no memory, who can she trust?
A deadly Christmas in Wrangler’s Corner
Robin Hardy survived an explosion in her university lab—but her memories are gone. With danger lurking behind every Christmas tree, she needs shelter from the attackers she can’t identify. She’ll trust fellow professor Toby Potter to safely hide her away. But when his secrets come between them, the truth could mean the difference between life and death this holiday season.
My take:
This is a real page-turner. Robin Hardy witnesses a murder and the lab she works at is blown up with her in it. She manages to escape, but the murderer is out to get her. Toby Potter had been assigned to infiltrate the lab because the FBI had word a deadly virus was being created in the lab. When Robin discovers Toby has been using her to get information on the people working in the lab, she is furious. Then the explosion and she loses her memory. When Toby saves her from the murderer, she’s thankful, but she doesn’t remember him at all. And he’s glad because when Robin does, she won’t want to have anything to do with him.
Lynette Eason, as always, did a great job with the characters and the suspense in Holiday Amnesia.

I read Christmas themed books all year round. Love Lynette Eason’s books!
Author
Me, to Mindy! Thanks for stopping by.
I read them all year.
Author
Me, too, Joni. That way I can keep Christmas going all year. 🙂
I am like you and intend to read books when they arrive but other books take their place. So I do read Christmas books whenever it strikes my fancy. Especially if they are written by a favorite author like Lynette Eason.
Author
Lynette is one of my favorite authors, too, Paula!
This does sound like a page turner. I prefer full-length books but just read and enjoyed another of her Love Inspired’s.
Author
Love her LIS books, too, Delores. Love all her books–page-turners, for sure.
I try to save my Christmas books for that season, but it doesn’t always work out that way! Really like Lynette Eason’s books.
Author
For me, Mary, it would be a good thought, but one I probably wouldn’t follow through on. lol And I love Lynette’s books, too. She is such a sweetheart of a person!
Holiday themes are read throughout the year, especially if they are in a series.
Author
Lisa, that pretty well the way I read my holiday books. Whenever I can get to them. lol
Honestly, I very rarely read Christmas fiction around Christmas time. Most of the Christmas books I read around Christmas are devotionals or something more akin to that. The fiction ones usually find their way into my paws during the spring or summer when I have more down time. 🙂
Author
So agree, Julia. Christmas is such a busy time. Thanks for stopping by and commenting!
I will read a Christmas any time of the year, but I prefer reading them near Christmas.
Author
Reading Christmas books in December really gets me in the mood for Christmas, Edward. Not a bad mood to carry over into the whole year. 🙂 Thanks for stopping by!
It’s always nice to read Christmas books in the season. Of course, there’s always Christmas in July…
I thoroughly enjoy Lynette Eason’s books no matter what season.
Author
I almost forgot Christmas in July, Maureen! Thanks for reminding me. And I love Lynette’s books any time as well.
I usually read Christmas books from Oct.-Dec. BUT there are always exceptions! I just read one in March that I could not get my hands on any sooner!
Author
That’s a great time to read Christmas books, Jackie. Thanks for stopping by.
I’ll read Christmas books any time of year! I adore Lynette’s books and thre are only four of her books that I haven’t read yet and this is one of them, I have it on my Kindle, but just need to find the time to squeeze it in between other review books!
Author
Caitlyn, I so agree about Lynette’s books. They are so good. Thanks for visiting.
I am afraid I have to be in the holiday spirit to read a Christmas book. But now if it’s a good suspense that is a different story.
Author
This one definitely has suspense, Stella! Thanks for stopping by.
I love her books — reading one now.
I love reading Christmas stories and it doesn’t matter what time of year I read them in. I will read a Christmas story anytime of the year.
Author
Me, too, Patricia. Thanks for stopping by and visiting!
Author
Love her books, too, Christine!
I never met a Lynette Eason book I didn’t like! I generally only read Christmas in the fall and winter, but I’ve been known to make exceptions! 🙂
Author
I agree, Regina! Love Lynette’s books.
The season doesn’t matter – I will read Christmas books anytime, especially Lynette Eason :).
Author
Me, too, Betti. Thanks for stopping by.
I generally read the Christmas stories when they arrive. The exception is if I’m reading a completed series from a past year. Then I read them all in sequence including the Christmas episode.
I am a big fan of Lynette Eason, and have read all of her books in this genre. You can rely on her for a hit. Holiday Amnesia is no exception. My only quibble is it is another amnesia story. There are too many in my opinion.
Author
I’ve heard that about amnesia stories before, Tim. 🙂 Thanks for stopping by.
Hi, I love, love Christmas , so I will read a Christmas book or watch a Christmas movie anytime! This book sounds intriguing and I love the cover! I Love good page turners and it sounds like this book is one of them, I’ll have to look it up. Thank you for sharing this. Have a Great weekend. God Bless you.
Author
This one is a page-turner for sure, Alicia! Thanks for visiting.
I try to just read Christmas books around Christmas time…usually starting after Thanksgiving (depending on when I finish the book that I was reading before) and ending just after Christmas or in early January depending on how long it takes me to finish the book I was reading! Most of the books I read aren’t specific to a season, although if I have a book that is specific, I do try to read it during that season or close to that season!
Author
I’d like to do that, Colleen, but usually, I read according to what’s next on my tbr table. lol Thanks for stopping by!
I try to read Christmas books in the fall but it doesn’t always work out that way. I do enjoy Lynette Eason’s books. She is a favorite anytime.
Author
Lynette is a favorite of mine, too, Gloria. And I read Christmas stories when I come to them on my TBR table. 😉 Thanks for stopping by.

Me, too, Caryl. Me, too. 🙂

Love Lynette Eason books! Anytime!
Author
Me, too, Joan!
I intend to read Christmas books at Christmas time, but it rarely works out that way…lol! So I read them whenever I can get to them. 🙂 Usually, I have review books to do so I don’t often get to read a book just because I’m in the mood for it or whatnot.
Lynette Eason is an engaging writer for sure! Thanks for featuring Holiday Amnesia. I’ve read a few with this theme and they always ramp up the tension for me!
Author
Lynette really knows how to ramp up the tension, Trixi!
I love Lynette E. too. I haven’t read this one. But, I would love too.

Me, too, Phyllis! Thanks for stopping by.
