About this listen

Patience was not one of Belle Gregory's virtues. So when she finds herself lying flat on her back in the sand with a tone male body on top of her, she curses her loss of sight. But the doctors say she will see again, a fact that has Adam Parker very worried. He has no choice but to live with the damage done to his face by a roadside bomb more than a year ago, but can Belle? Or will she see only the scars and not what's in his heart?

How relatable Adam and Belle are. I was once temporarily blind when my corneas blistered, so I identified with Belle's fears and uncertainties.

Belle but Dee's a close second

If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?

Short, sweet, romance

What was one of the most memorable moments of Through Your Eyes?

Hearing how Belle - without the use of her eyes - experienced the beach and her time with Adam.

What about Ellen B. Gralick’s performance did you like?

Ellen put a lot of emotion behind her narration; however, I would have liked Ellen's male characters to have deeper voices. But that's just a preference of mine.

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

Not to give too much away, but... there was a sweet happily ever after, where both Belle and Adam realized that they saw each other through the eyes of love.

Any additional comments?

This was the perfect "read" to listen to while I prepared dinner - a nice way of having a little "me" time.

I was especially moved by the circumstances surrounding both Adam and Belle. I admit I warmed to Adam's character a lot quicker than I did Belle's. However, as they both learned to trust and love again, I could easily see them as a couple.

Author Jo Barrett has packed a lot of story into a small, but rewarding package.

There was little distinction between the characters by the narrator, although she did a good job in conveying emotion

Do you think Through Your Eyes needs a follow-up book? Why or why not?

Sweet but short

I knew this was a short story so was prepared for it to not be long. However, I found it was an enriched story that had everything needed for a good romance. Two damaged people who are afraid to face the world head on find a way to help each other heal. I liked the characters, the lovely beach setting, and the sweet story. The narrator was good, doing an effective job of differentiating characters and providing just the right amount of suspense. I enjoyed it so much I listened to it twice. I was given a copy of this book to review.

Great short story
