This Kiss

The first time I lost all memory of Tucker, we had just met.

We were in the disco room of the epilepsy ward, both of our heads covered in electrodes.

My seizures were worse than most. When I woke up, my entire history would have evaporated like water on a skillet.

Meeting people was usually a waste of time. But on that magical day, Tucker yelled, "Come here often?"

"Never! Do you?" I yelled back.

And that was all we got. The disco lights switched to strobes, the kind designed to cause a seizure. That's why I was there. For the wires on my head to collect data. To show the doctors what was going on inside my brain.

And hopefully, to help me.

I took one more look at him as my legs gave way, and the sizzle in my head turned my vision black.

Tucker.

I had no idea then that I had just met the love of my life.

In a few seconds, I wouldn't remember him at all.

But he would remember everything.

This Kiss is an extraordinary romance between two people with epilepsy who fall in love in the toughest of circumstances. As Tucker unfailingly convinces Ava to return to him over and over again, he teaches her that even when memory fails, the heart remembers.
