P. Pagan camille noe Pagán the art of forgetting a novel marissa Rogers has always been just fine as a beta. after all, hadn’t taking charge without taking credit always paid off? it’s what vaulted her to senior editor at a glossy—if somewhat tedious—health magazine and let her be best friends with gorgeous, charismatic, absolutely alpha Julia ferrar. and then Julia is hit by a cab. Her external injuries are minor, but brain damage steals her memory and alters her personality. suddenly, marissa must assume the alpha role and help Julia recover her past—including parts they’d both rather forget. in her finely wrought debut novel, magazine writer camille noe Pagán movingly explores friendship, memory, and the delicate balance between forgiving and forgetting. “Beautiful . . . a must read!” —Glamour.com “This impressive debut is . . . (dare I say it?) unforgettable.” ■■National Publicity —J.
