Found: One girl, age 13. Unconscious. Unharmed. Unclaimed. Unidentified.
Lost: Everything.

J.D. may not know the truth about her past, but she knows she's in danger, and she can't shake the dark visions haunting her dreams. She won't be safe until she figures out who she is and where she came from. She can trust no one, not even herself -- especially not herself.

Chasing Yesterday #1 Awakening is about J.D's struggle to gain her memory back. She was diagnosed with Retrograde Amnesia after she was found unconscious at an explosion site. She had only some bruises and a concussion. She keeps having these dreams/visions/hallucinations/memories, she doesn't know what they are, about a fire, and they seem so vivid, so real. She is sent to the chester center and becomes friends with a boy named Daniel there. J.D.'s 'mother' comes to get her and says J.D.'s name is Alexa Collins, and takes her to see a psychiatrist named Dr. Styron. That isn't his real name, you will find that out in book 2 (betrayal). but she later finds out that she isn't- wasn't- her mother.I rate it ★★★★★ 5 stars.
