Tatum was heartbroken when her boyfriend, Wes, returned from the Program with his memories erased.  Eventually they fell back into their previous relationship, and Tatum and Wes helped Wes get the Adjustment, which was supposed to return Wes’ memories that were erased in the Program.  But it becomes clear that Tatum’s memories may have been implanted and those who are running the Program are keeping an eye on them, which scares both Tatum and Wes.  

This is the sixth and I believe final book in the Program series.  This book would be super confusing unless you have followed the whole series because a lot of the characters come back from all the books.  I enjoyed this series and was satisfied with the ending but felt like the first 3-4 books in the series were more interesting.  Also it has to be said: the swear count is distracting and obnoxious.
