Clementine Haas is the sole survivor of a plane crash outside of Shannon, Ireland. Having developed amnesia, Teeny (the 18-year-old's childhood nickname) panics when she realizes that she can't remember anything about her life before the accident. After meeting college student and reluctant rich kid Kieran O'Connell in the hospital courtyard, she dares him to take her away for a few days, hoping to avoid the media and the father she can't remember, who is on his way to retrieve her. Surprisingly, he agrees. Now calling herself, Jane, she moves into the home Kieran shares with his pregnant twin sister, Siobhan. Slowly, Teeny and Kieran begin to fall for each other, but she is haunted by the fragmented memories of her old life. Crane (The Odds of Loving Grover Cleveland) writes a predictable but appealing love story that provides romantics with many swoon-worthy moments. While much of the charm relies on the Irish setting and the brooding good looks and lilting brogue of leading man Kieran, impulsive and spirited Teeny is equally enjoyable. Ages 14-up.

Gr 9 Up-Waking up in an Irish hospital, Clementine Haas has no idea why she's there. She is informed that she's an 18-year-old from Ohio and the lone survivor of a plane crash. Clementine has total amnesia. During her brief stay in the hospital, the protagonist meets a handsome stranger in the courtyard. Her father has come to fetch her from the hospital but Clementine, too scared to face the life she doesn't remember, convinces the handsome stranger Kieran to take her away. She needs a chance to find herself and to hopefully figure out why she has a green heart tattoo on her foot that disgusts her. The story that follows is of Clementine's slow self-discovery, Kieran's mysterious reticence, and a lot of attitude from Kieran's pregnant twin sister, Siobhan. Clementine uses this experience to teach herself and those around her to embrace the life one has. The teen doesn't want to live recklessly, but does want to live the life she chooses on her own terms. VERDICT This quickly paced work will be enjoyed by teens interested in independence, love, self-discovery, and drama. A good choice for most YA shelves.-Sara Jurek, Children's English Library, Stuttgart, Germany © Copyright 2017. Library Journals LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of Media Source, Inc.

When 18-year-old Clementine wakes up in the hospital after a catastrophic plane crash, she has no memory of who she is or how she came to be on a flight to Ireland from her native Cleveland. Feeling like an impersonator in her own body, Clementine flees the hospital with a sympathetic local, Kieran. Hiding out in the Irish countryside, Clementine conceals her identity to evade the intrusive media while she tries to rediscover her personality. Meanwhile, Kieran and his surly twin sister, Siobhan, are also facing pivotal crossroads as Kieran prepares to join his father's company and Siobhan prepares to become a mother. Can Clementine earn their trust while keeping her own secrets, and win Kieran's love without truly knowing herself? A fresh setting breathes new life into this story's amnesiac melodrama; in locales like Siobhan's unconventional book, record, and costume store and Kieran's surfing hideaway, readers glimpse a new side of Ireland. Clementine is a resilient heroine who may not need Kieran to find herself, but the book ultimately rewards their vulnerability with each other.--Kelly, Carolyn Copyright 2018 Booklist

When Clementine Haas wakes up in a hospital, she has no recollection of the past 18 years of her life, let alone why she's there. The white teenager is horrified to learn she is the lone survivor of a terrible plane crash in Ireland. When her father arrives from America, she feels nothing and runs away. She doesn't know if she's trying to find or lose Clementine, but she can't stay in that hospital any longer, disappointing everyone by not remembering. She dares 20-year-old Irishman Kieran O'Connell to get her away from the hospital, and he takes her to the small village of Waterville, where Clementine is able to relax and slowly try to figure out who she is. Clementine meets Kieran's pregnant twin sister, Siobhan, and Clive, a bisexual man with a mohawk who owns a used book and record store (and who offers the only diversity in the book other than Stephen, a gay, Jewish nurse). Unsurprisingly, she falls head over heels in love with Kieran, feeling an overpowering connection with him. Using the device of Clementine's amnesia, Crane explores themes of freedom and self-determination. Her freedom to remake herself in Waterville begins with a purple dye job and a fake name but doesn't end there; readers will respond to her testing of new waters.A light exploration of existential themes.
