Don't Look Back by Jennifer L. Armentrout

Synopsis:
Samantha is a stranger in her own life. Until the night she disappeared with her best friend, Cassie, everyone said Sam had it all-popularity, wealth, and a dream boyfriend. 

Sam has resurfaced, but she has no recollection of who she was or what happened to her that night. As she tries to piece together her life from before, she realizes it's one she no longer wants any part of. The old Sam took "mean girl" to a whole new level, and it's clear she and Cassie were more like best enemies. Sam is pretty sure that losing her memories is like winning the lottery. She's getting a second chance at being a better daughter, sister, and friend, and she's falling hard for Carson Ortiz, a boy who has always looked out for her-even if the old Sam treated him like trash.

But Cassie is still missing, and the facts about what happened to her that night isn't just buried deep inside of Sam's memory-someone else knows, someone who wants to make sure Sam stays quiet. All Sam wants is the truth, and if she can unlock her clouded memories of that fateful night, she can finally move on. But what if not remembering is the only thing keeping Sam alive?

My Rating
-5/5-
Another amazing book from Jennifer L. Armentrout.
This book was perfect. I loved the story it was so amazing and suspenseful and it kept me guessing through the whole story of who is behind it all.
Samantha has lost her memory and now has a second chance to do things over again to be a better person then before. The only problem is Cassie who was supposedly her best friend has gone missing and is feared not alive. Samantha wants so hard to remember what happened that night but she can't. It also doesn't help that she gets lied to about her life before she lost her memory.
The closer Samantha gets to the truth the more danger she gets in.
The characters were amazing. I really loved Samantha and just how as she found out who she used to be how she hated that. How she hated being mean and she didn't understand how she could have acted that way. I loved her push to try and figure out what happened that night she lost her memory.
Her brother Scott I found awesome how he looks out for his sister and kind of even picks on her a little like a brother should.
The mean friends and the mother who wants her daughter to be prefect and cares what people think really added to the story and helps make you understand why Samantha was so mean before.
Carson was absolutely amazing and him and Samantha made a cute pair. The way he treated Sam though everything was so cute and sweet, I loved it.
I loved where the story went, she looses her memory finds out someone is gone she tries to come up with what happened and she can't. She tires living her old life but finds out it's nothing she really wants then changes it to be something that she does want.
Also the ending was a huge shocker. I didn't expect to see what happened coming but it was really interesting and worth the suspense. There was hardly any clues that were easy to put together so that you wouldn't be surprised at the end. It is really a surprise ending and that is just the best. 
5 out of 5 for this book.
