Summary
Shane is tired of being handled. Blind since childhood and smothered by a mother who means well but won't let go, he's finally found his way out: a study abroad program that could give him the independence he's been fighting for. His best friend Rose thinks he's making a mistake. Shane doesn't care—until a new boy walks into his classroom.
Ilya is mysterious, unfamiliar, and impossible to ignore. And suddenly the escape Shane has been planning for months doesn't feel so simple anymore. Torn between the freedom he's always wanted and a connection he never saw coming, Shane has to decide what independence really means and whether it's worth leaving behind the one person making him want to stay.
