All those pumpkins that I was sneaking into my yard hoping my hubby wouldn’t notice, all need to go to make room for the Christmas decorations. My yard waste bin is going to be 400 pounds. I think I will give myself a few days before the Christmas decorations go up. Maybe give myself time to breath between holidays. Unless this second cup of coffee and the Hallmark Channel Christmas movie I am watching lights a fire under my tushy and gets me in the mood. I just can’t resist Hallmark Christmas movies. ARG!!

Her world has always been dark, but he might be able to change everything…

Fiercely independent Helen Winters was born completely blind, but she vowed never to let her disability keep her down. She did not expect a traumatic event to devastate her life and force her to drop out of college. Disillusioned by the cruelty of people, Helen retreated from society to live by herself as a reclusive writer in the woods, where no one could ever hurt her again.

When a brilliant young doctor shows up on her doorstep, promising her that his new research can give her the ability to see for the first time, Helen stubbornly refuses. She has learned not to trust anyone, and to rely only on herself. But Dr. Liam Larson will not take no for an answer. He makes it his personal mission to rescue Helen from her loneliness, and bring joy into her world once more; the joy she has denied herself for so long.

When Helen’s demons come racing back into her life, threatening to rip her apart and destroy the strength she has carefully rebuilt, Liam is the only one who might be able to save her. Can he reach the broken girl in time, helping her to heal and see the world in a different light? Or will Helen’s grief send her spiraling out of control, lost to him forever?
