Every last Sunday of the month, Dawn wakes up in the middle of the Redwood forest without remembering how she got there. When she wakes up in the hospital instead of the forest floor, she has no choice but to make some changes in her life. While receiving treatment for her amnesia, she meets Jasper, who uncovers a part of her past that her mind had forced her to forget. Her fascination with this peculiar man grows the more time they spend together and she soon finds herself falling in love with him. When Jasper helps Dawn in her search to find out what's causing the episodes, she realizes he's more intertwined with her past than she initially thought. Dawn knows that her adventures with Jasper are unhealthy, yet she can't stop herself. In her pursuit of the truth, Dawn ends up jeopardizing the lives of the people around her as well as her own. Just how far will she go to unearth that last missing puzzle piece of her past? Asphyxia is a 64,000 word new adult, mystery romance embellished with a dose of inner snark, copious amounts of coffee and a whole lot of loveable crazy.
