Remember - War Correspondent Haunted By Mystery 24 January, 2007 Remember tells the story of a television war correspondent, Nicky Wells, who is haunted by the mystery of her greatest love. She is a media superstar, courageous, beautiful, and renowned for her reality reports from the world's trouble spots. She loses the only man she has ever loved, dashing English aristocrat Charles Devereaux who lived a mysterious double life, unknown to Nicky until she has another romantic affair. Nicky finds solace in her work with Cleeland Donavan, her photographer as they report on the massacre in Beijing's Tiananmen Square during the student protest in 1989. The disturbing suspicions about her first love inspires her to embark on a quest to discover the truth. The journey will take her from New York and Provence to Rome, London, and Madrid. She draws on every investigative skill she has ever learned and the search challenges everything she thought she knew about Charles, herself and her own life. Nicky was in and out of Tiananmen for the next few hours, as were most of the foreign press corp. The areas surrounding the square were a mess. ... And then she noticed that some of the students on the monument were busy writing, and she tugged at Clee's sleeve. "What are they doing?" she asked. Clee signed and shook his head. "Yoyo told me they're writing their wills." Nicky turned away, swallowing, and felt the prick of tears behind her eyes. She struggled for self-control; the more emotional the situation and the story, the cooler she must be. Clee had noticed her reaction, and put an arm around her. "It's a lousy world we live in, Nick, and you know that better than anybody." "Oh, Clee. Some things are really hard to take." Leaders of the revolution were on speakers begging the students to go home before they were killed. Nicky accepted an invitation from Clee to take a respite at his home in Provence, France. "Almost three years ago she had gone to Cap d Antibes with her fiancé, Charles Devereaux, a man with whom she had been very much in love and had been about to marry. Without any kind of forewarning or hint of trouble between them, he had terminated their relationship in the most brutal of ways. No explanations or reasons were given, and it had happened only a couple of months after the idyllic trip to the Cote d'Azur. She had not set eyes on Charles Devereaux ever again." Other novels by Bradford are: A Woman of Substance, Voice of the Heart, Hold The Dream, Act of Will, To Be The Best, and The Women in His Life.

Exciting . . . I Loved It! 06 March, 1999 Remember was a GREAT book! It is one of those books that you can read over and over again Filled with excitement, suspense (and a litttle romance) Remember narrates the story of Nicky Wells, a war correspondent and reporter. Three years before, her fiance, Charles Devereaux, "commited suicide" and she is still very emotionally scarred. However, after a friendship with Cleeland Dovonan, a fellow war photagrapher, develops into more than just a friendship, Nicky wonders if she might be able to love someone again. Suddenly, she is forced to remember Charles when she develops disturbing suspciions about his double life. There are some things that you just can't forget, as hinted at in a poem at the beginning of the book by Christina Rossetti: "Remember me when I am gone away, Gone far away into the silent land, When you can no more hold me by the hand, Nor I half turn to go yet turning stay. Remember me when no more day by day You tell me of our future that you planned: Only remember me; you understand It will be too late to counsel then or pray. Yet if you should forget me for a while And afterwards remember, do not grieve; For if the darkness and corruption leave A vestige of the thoughts that once I had, Better by far you should forget and smile Than that you should remember and be sad."
