With the help of her guide dog, Jack Sparrow, she’s built a good life for herself. She has everything she wants: her PhD, a thriving counseling practice and her independence.

When she meets her new neighbor, the man’s warm Texas accent and clean male scent weaken her knees. Her attraction to the former Marine is mutual and, unfortunately, a complication she doesn’t need.Gabriel Briggs carries the weight of the world on his shoulders. He has his reasons for indulging only in short-term flings, but the feisty, green-eyed Lauren makes him want to forget every one.

In a rare moment of fragility, Lauren winds up in Gabe’s arms. One night together can’t break their self-imposed rules, right? But when a woman from Gabe’s past is murdered, the reasons he should have stayed away become painfully clear, threatening innocent lives he may not be able to save—especially Lauren’s.Warning: Contains a blind therapist who doesn’t consider herself impaired; a meddling, erotic-novel-writing best friend; a hot ex-Marine with a shady past; and a loyal guide dog that howls “I love you” and is probably the sanest one of the bunch.

Review : Blind Love by Kishan Paul was my first book by this author and I believe it is also her debut novel. I picked it up because of the interesting Blurb, as I like strong women that hold their own even in the presence of even stronger man.

The authors writing is good and she definitively gives her characters enough depth to make them “real”. Even those normally unlikeable “Ex” partners leave you with an unexplainable “let’s hope she does another novel for him so he gets his HEA” feeling.

In the first few chapters of the book, I found the strong woman but unfortunately, I was missing the strong man. Maybe it was my misunderstanding but when I read “Marine” of course the whole thing around “honor” was also on my mind but I would have guessed that the focus would have been more on the “strong”. Instead, this novel came too near to the cliché of the small town romance novel.

Anyway around half way through the book when I was seriously considering if I would have to finish it another time as my mind was not into this kind of romance. As If the author had guessed what was on my mind – suddenly the pace of the story shifted and there were “things” added to the mix to spice it up and it became interesting after all.

In total, a recommendable read for romance lovers and I will keep an eye on the next books from this author.
