It was one of my favorite stories not only because Patrick is blind but also because it was funny and adorable and I loved how independent Patrick was and how much cranky and grumpiness Jake could put up with. I read this book last year so you can read my review of it here. When his mother needs him, guilt makes his choice between family and Patrick difficult, and Jake must realize he’s not alone anymore. He’s sacrificed everything for his family maybe it’s time for him to live his life and start a relationship with Patrick. Things are looking up: the girls are starting their own lives and his mum’s sobriety might stick this time. On landing, he finds his new boss, Patrick Stanford, a fussy, arrogant, rude… and blind man.īorn without sight, Patrick is used to being accommodated, but he’s met his match with Jake, who doesn’t take any of his crap and threatens to swap all the braille labels on his groceries and run off with his guide dog unless he behaves. When a housekeeping position opens, Jake’s so desperate he leaps at the opportunity. A huge debt looms over him, and alone he shoulders the care of his alcoholic mother and three younger sisters. Combined with some bad luck, it’s prevented him from keeping steady employment. She is a survivor of being the youngest in a large family and believes that laughter (and a good book) can cure anything.Available at: Dreamspinner Press, Amazon & Audibleīlurb: Jake Manning’s smart mouth frequently gets him into trouble. Renae lives in Perth, Western Australia and writes in five minute snatches between the demands of two kids, a forbearing husband, too many pets, too much housework and her beloved veggie garden.
So until then she is stuck with quirky, snarky and imperfect characters who just want their story told. She believes that maybe one day the world will create a perfect couple - and it will be the most boring story ever. After years - and thousands of stories! - of not having book characters do what she wants, she decided she would write her own novel and found the characters still didn't do what she wanted. She consumed her first adult romance book at the tender age of thirteen and hasn't stopped since. Renae Kaye is a lover and hoarder of books who thinks libraries are devilish places because they make you give the books back.
