Too Much to Forget

A stand alone sequel to Too Much to Remember, Too Much to Forget takes a more serious turn than its comedic prequel. Though laced with some of the same humor, the story also journeys into the tragic past of the Kovak family. As young Joe Kovak prepares for his eighteenth birthday, he suffers pangs of a recent breakup, mixed emotions about his best friend's girlfriend Julie, and confusion over the odd jealousy he suddenly feels whenever he sees his friend Loki with her new boyfriend. But Joe's normal teenage angst fades into the background, when he begins having hauntingly vivid dreams about his deceased mother. With the return of a man named Robert LeClerc into his family's life, Joe finds himself wondering why it's taken him thirteen years to ask a crucial question. As his dreams become more frequent, and more vivid, Joe suspects that the reason he's never asked his father how his mom died, is because deep in his memories, he's always known, and has fought hard not to remember. But now, the memories of his mom, of how she lived—and how she died, are too much to forget.

About the Author

Originally from the Bronx New York, Jax dreamed of a career in performing. But what began as the cliche childhood fantasy of becoming a movie star, quickly took a detour when she landed a job with Ringling Brothers Circus. She started out as a dancing showgirl, but her lust for the spotlight trumped her fear of heights and soon she was performing 30 feet in the air as half of Aerial act Duo Resto. After an 8-year tour, Jax settled in Florida and started a family. Life as a "grownup" led her back to living out fantasies the way she did as a child and teen--through her writing. But her writing, as well as her passion for performing soon led her back to the stage, and another detour. This time she was drummer in an all-female rock band. Eventually, she realized her writing was not restricted to novels, and hooked up with fellow songwriter and musician, Bud Buckley to form BudaRest. Together they wrote a series of songs which technological wizard Susan Burkhart then embedded into Jax's novel Too Much to Remember, creating the first young adult rock ebook. While co-hosting talk show BudaRest Mashup with Buckley, they decided to air excerpts of the book, using teens for the readings. Then Jax took it a step further, adapting the novel to radio theater, casting students from Venice High School. KDWRradio now hosts the only contemporary "old time radio" dramedy series Too Much to Remember at www.kdwradio.com/category/tmtr.
