I let her go before I enlisted. I left my heart with her.

Now I’m home for good – my world has changed, my sight gone.

Not only do I have to be with her every day as I learn to navigate the world around me, but I have to come face to face with my regrets.

She deserves more than me.

I need her.

I want her.

Will she want me again -- the damaged version of the man who broke her heart?

    Gavin a war veteran had been injured and loses his sight sending him for rehab to Oakside where he meets up with his physical therapist Lauren who is also his ex.
    This is a sweet, dramatic and romantic story about forgiveness and second chances. I loved how the characters from past books have been incorporated into the story and also his son Graham as well. It was a touching story emotional and well done. Great book!!.

    Great story! Recovering from military injury that has taken his vision. Learning things all over again and how to approach life. His therapist is someone he knew from his past, how they move on from this is a true testament! This journey is about healing, moving on, finding love, and their own healing hearts.

    I don’t usually get into books where kids are involved, but Lauren’s son is so cute that I was quickly won over! Gavin and Lauren’s reunion story was not without its difficulties, with secrets revealed and insecurities battled, but those two worked hard to become a family. Another lovely addition to this series!

    Kaci Rose has written another very good book. I really like the books in this series.
    This was Lauren's first time working at Oakside . The new patient has lost his sight in a war attack and she was to teach him how to navigate. She would be working with the patient and his seeing eye dog.
    When she walked into the room she recognized him as Gavin, her high school sweetheart who crushed her heart years ago The only man she had ever loved.
    She walked back out of the room and went to Lexi's office. After some discussion, Lauren walked back into Gavin's room. Gavin asked who was there. She answered "Lauren". Gavin's whole body went stiff. He knew her voice. She was the girl he never got over. He had broke up with Lauren at the bus stop to go to Boot Camp. He thought she would be better off without him and find someone new.
    Gavin and Lauren had a son but he did not know this. Lauren could not reach him while he was in the military. She wanted to tell him, but wanted to wait to see how the relationship would work out. Lauren went to Arizona to visit her parents and they were against her telling Gavin.
    How will Gavin take the fact that he is a father? Will they still be together or will the news break them up? There is so much to this story that I did not cover as I don't want to spoil the book for you. I really like this story and I home you like it too. I highly recommend this book.

    Really enjoyed this story. Although Gavin and Lauren fell in love with each other when young, that love was still very strong. It broke Gavin to leave Lauren and go to boot camp, but he thought he was doing the right thing. Lauren was crushed when Gavin left, but now he's back in her life, and she has to help him. A more unique story than the last couple.
