A powerful older surgeon falls for a younger nurse in a wife-amnesia second-chance lesbian romance where falling in love with my wife again becomes the only path forward.

____________________________________________________
Dr. Evelyn Ashford has built her life on precision. As one of Boston’s most formidable neurosurgeons, she trusts facts, discipline, and absolute control.
Then a catastrophic brain hemorrhage steals two years of her memories.
Evelyn remembers marrying Maya Bennett, the brilliant younger nurse who once needed her financial help. What she cannot remember is the moment their practical arrangement became a real marriage—or why Maya now looks at her with the heartbreak of a woman who has lost everything without being allowed to grieve.
Maya refuses to prove that Evelyn once loved her. She will not use photographs, private messages, or forgotten promises to trap her wife inside a past she can no longer reach. If their marriage is going to survive, Evelyn must choose her again freely.
But falling for her own wife becomes far more dangerous when Evelyn’s recovery threatens her surgical career, Maya receives an opportunity that could take her away from Boston, and every new feeling raises the same impossible question:
Is Evelyn rediscovering the love she lost—or building an entirely different one?
Loving the Wife I Forgot is an emotionally intense age-gap lesbian medical romance about a marriage in crisis, a devastating loss of memory, and two women risking their hearts on a second chance neither of them can control.
