About this listen

Guide dog trainer Lenae McIntyre left the high-speed world of television news writing behind, and now she helps other visually impaired people adjust to life with their canine companions. She teaches her students and their dogs to trust each other, but a past betrayal and the determination to be self-sufficient and independent keep her from trusting her heart to see love.

Cara Bradley compensates for her family's shallow celebrity lifestyle by devoting her life to helping others, while keeping to the background. She reluctantly commits to a year of puppy walking a four-legged whirlwind named Pickwick so she can film regular segments for a local news program while helping promote the McIntyre Training Center, but she is unprepared for the changes that the driven and aloof Lenae will bring to her life. Blindsided by love, can Lenae and Cara learn to trust and guide each other toward a new vision for their future?

Steadily seductive storyline

I bought this having read the ebook which I thoroughly enjoyed. I wanted to know how to pronounce the characters names.

I enjoyed the characters inner life even when I wanted to bang there heads together.

A heartwarming story spoilt by the narrator

Keep going with this enlightening tale of love blossoming between a blind and a sighted woman because it is worth persevering with despite a few clumsy plot contrivances and a terrible narrator.
I very nearly gave up on it because of the reading style of the narrator, who does not seem to empathise with the story and reads in a choppy, staccato manner, with a harsh tone that imparts very little warmth into what is an emotional tale. In an irritating addition, the narrator adopts an irritating style of speech that turns every sentence into a question. Fortunately, either she dropped the questionable style part way through or I became tolerant of it because it stopped grating on me after a while.
Ultimately I was glad I persevered and finished this audiobook, because it is a good story. However, it is such a shame that the producer didn't hire a reader who was more sympathetic with the narrative she was reading because Betsy Zajko really spoiled it.

slow

As much as there was depth around the puppy training aspect I found the love aspect did not grip me or make me feel that these characters had any depth to their relationship.

Nice story

Visual impairment was sensitively written and I felt my other senses sharpen as I listened, I was really rooting for these ladies.
