One misstep on a mountain climbing trip plunged Brenden into darkness by stealing his sight--and everything else he held dear. But an independent guide dog named Nelson might just bring him back to life . . . if they don't kick him out of guide dog school first.
Twenty-two-year-old Brenden McCarthy feels like he's lost everything. His fiancée. His independence. And his passion for life. All due to one mountain-climbing misstep that cost him his vision.
But he's about to gain the last thing he ever expected: a big-hearted black Labrador named Nelson who's given one last shot at being a Seeing Eye dog after his last two pairings failed.
Both are beyond hope and resigned to live alone. And both are about to experience a bond of friendship that develops when they least expect it.
Together is a heartwarming story for anyone who's ever lost sight of what matters most in life . . . but has hope that there's more.
