✩ ✩ ✩ ✩ FOUR-STAR ✩ REVIEW ✩ ✩ ✩ ✩ > > Judging a Book by it's Cover < < Mediocre composition. Bold title font, clear author font. Would not visually catch my eye. Synopsis - as I am a sucker for the flaws heroes or lead characters, this one sounds like it may fit the bill. Willing to give it a try based on synopsis. > > Looking Deeper < < POV ~> Alternating first-person POVs Sculpting artist, Nate, is the victim of a hit and run while out running one night. The impact send him tumbling down a ravine where injuries sustained result in a permanent loss of vision. With the loss of his vision, his vain model boyfriend starts distancing him at the fastest rate possible. Cody, Nate's best friend and local hot shot art gallery owner, flies home from Europe to be there for his friend, despite the cold shoulder from Nate's boyfriend. With the help of a transition therapist and an art instructor for the visually impaired, Cody encourages Nate to start living a new version of his old, normal life. The two already have a childhood history, so their bond and chemistry is apparent from the start. Throw in a few colorful characters, both for and against the lead couple, and you have a dynamic cast. I was mildly disappointed that while Cody's family took him in [read book to understand the when and why], they received no actual page time other than mere mentions, whereas Nate's parents were featured and his sibling was a figment of our imaginations. There were some minor points of "I saw that coming", but nothing so big as to ruin any key elements. At times, the conversations felt more scripted than natural and a few UK English words slipped past the proofreaders and editor, which is on them - not the author. The plot flowed well and the story was enjoyable to read. No cliffhangers. HEA provided. Solid ending. .
