Starting as the new veterinarian in an animal hospital, Carter gets to know the withdrawn, moody Isaac and his guide dog Brady. Carter and Isaac gravitate to each other fairly quickly, but Isaac has trouble to rely on his dog or show him any affection.

It's not one of Walker's strongest books, I thought.

Carter is a bit too perfect but I liked him and I even liked Isaac's pride and occasional grumpiness but I thought the book could use a bit more passion and intensity.
The relationship felt rather muted and a bit one-sided. Carter always seems to be the one to instigate, cajole and decide, while Isaac just goes along for the ride. They are really sweet together and all that, but it was just all a bit too careful, too soft for me.

I also thought the book got a bit obnoxious on pointing out how brave, awesome and independent Isaac is for living a normal life even though he's blind. If Isaac is just a normal person, regardless of his eyesight, that shouldn't be such a big achievement, should it?

So, it's not a bad book or a bad story. It's romantic, sweet and not too saccharine. There is just a little drama when Isaac gets into one of his moods, but other than that it's a pleasant, heartwarming read, lots of couple interaction and cute dogs. Not a lot of sex though, but what there is is sweet and caring rather than explicit and hot.
