Hidden Star by Nora Roberts

Having a character lose their memory is a common trope in romance. It allows the reader, the love interest, and the character to learn about each other all at the same time. It can also set up a mystery. Like why Bailey (last name as yet unknown) is carrying around millions of dollars in diamonds and a gun.
Cade Parris immediately pegs her as a woman he's going to fall in love with. She's gorgeous (and, of course, that's all that matters in 90s romance.) Then he gets to know her and falls into True Love.
And that is part of my problem with this book. Cade is a private investigator but he leaps to all of these conclusions about Bailey. Yes, I do remember that this was put out as a Harlequin Romance but, c'mon.
