Clarity 1
Her world has always been dark, but he might be able to change everything…
Fiercely independent Helen Winters was born completely blind, but she vowed never to let her disability keep her down. She did not expect a traumatic event to devastate her life and force her to drop out of college. Disillusioned by the cruelty of people, Helen retreated from society to live by herself as a reclusive writer in the woods–where no one could ever hurt her again.
When a brilliant young doctor shows up on her doorstep, promising her that his new research can give her the ability to see for the first time, Helen stubbornly refuses. She has learned not to trust anyone, and to rely only on herself. But Dr. Liam Larson will not take no for an answer. He makes it his personal mission to rescue Helen from her loneliness, and bring joy into her world once more–the joy she has denied herself for so long.
When Helen’s demons come racing back into her life, threatening to rip her apart and destroy the strength she has carefully rebuilt, Liam is the only one who might be able to save her. Can he reach the broken girl in time, helping her to heal and see the world in a different light? Or will Helen’s grief send her spiraling out of control, lost to him forever?
Clarity 2:
When violent memories come racing back, he is her only hope…
Helen Winters was living a lonely existence when the charming Dr. Liam Larson coaxed her out of solitude with the promise of healing her sightless eyes. She was hopeful at the prospect of gaining vision for the first time and being reunited with her family. She was also growing somewhat fond of the persuasive young doctor. For the first time in years, she was being magnetically drawn to a new friend…
Then everything came crashing down.
Plunged into a hellish nightmare, Helen is forced to face the same evils she ran away to escape so long ago. She is unprepared to have her hopes crushed and her peace destroyed. She finds herself living in constant terror and drowning in fear–and Liam’s voice is the only thing that can keep her afloat. His comforting touch becomes the only light in her pitch-black darkness. Helen has always been a tough girl who relied only on herself. But this time, she can’t survive alone. Due to the horrors of her past, Helen has promised herself not to trust anyone. When her life becomes unbearable, how can she trust Liam enough to let him save her?
Clarity 3:
After many years of darkness, Winter never thought that she’d be happy or safe again. Her whole world changed when she met Liam Larson, a charming young doctor determined to be her knight in shining armor. When a brutal night unleashes vicious reminders of her past, Winter must struggle to hold on to the little bit of happiness she has found.
When everything begins to fall apart, Liam’s strength and kindness might not be enough to save her. Battling with the betrayal of her family, terrifying nightmares, and frequent reminders of her enemy that make daily life difficult, Winter’s first instinct is to run away. She is tired of being the victim and living in a cruel, crowded city where she doesn’t feel like she belongs.
But Liam promises her that if she only trusts him, he can change everything. And that’s exactly what he attempts to do, starting with an operation to heal her eyes, and then her heart…

“If you’re going to study under me, the number one rule is
that you should not be afraid of touch.” The teacher’s voice is calm and
pleasant, and I am eager to absorb his every word. “If someone tries to grab
you or hit you, then they are stepping onto your
battlefield. Your body is your turf—and the moment someone steps onto your turf, you are no longer blind. If
they touch you, you touch them back. You grab whatever you can. If you can feel your attacker, you can see your attacker.”
“Okay,” I say softly.
“Do you see this?” James reaches out to touch my shoulder.
“Now you know exactly where I am. Now you have valuable information about
me—all the information you need to take me down.”
I nod in understanding.
“And now—observe this,” James says removing his hand from my
shoulder. He steps around me, slowly circling my body. “Now that I am no longer
touching you, I have become invisible to you. I could be anywhere around you.
You have some clues, but not all the clues you need. You don’t want to run
away. You don’t want more space between us. You want to move into me so that you can see my body and neutralize it so that it
is no longer a threat. It might seem counterintuitive at first, but you’ll soon
understand once we begin training.”
My mind is blown. It makes so much sense. When Grayson
attacked me, I ran away. I am always getting nervous and flinching away from
contact with people. I never realized that doing so gave them the power.
“Remember this concept,” James says again. “If they’re not
touching you, they’re invisible. So take advantage of touch, and make it your
friend—not your enemy.”
I take a deep breath and nod thankfully. “I will,” I say
with determination. It also occurs to me that I have psychological issues with
running away. Going to New Hampshire might have saved my skin for the time
being, but it did not erase my problems completely. Instead, it exposed my home
to infiltration from my attacker. If I had stayed, and pushed forward instead
of caving in, I could have changed everything.
I want to change everything.
“It’s good to keep your enemies close,” Liam tells me, “so
don’t worry. We’ll teach you what you need to do.”
“And I have the perfect way to start!” James says happily.
“Winter, how would you like to kick Liam’s ass a lot?”
A laugh bubbles out of my throat. “Really? I think I’d love
that.”
“Darn,” Liam says in dismay.
