"Sometimes people did this, closed their eyes for a few seconds and imagined it gave them insights into what it was like to be her. Only, at the end, they could still open their eyes and see."

Sixteen-year-old Cheyenne Wilder is sleeping in the back of the car while her stepmom fills a prescription for antibiotics. Before Cheyenne realizes what's happening, the car is being stolen.

Griffin hadn't meant to kidnap Cheyenne and once he finds out that not only does she have pneumonia, but that she's blind, he really doesn't know what to do. When his dad finds out that Cheyenne's father is the president of a powerful corporation, everything changes--now there's a reason to keep her. 

How will Cheyenne survive this nightmare?

Have you ever craved a cheeseburger really badly? But -oh wait!- you knew a cheeseburger is bad for you. So alas and alack you chose to eat dark chocolate with a creamy center and a harder outside. 
That's what this was like. A different -what would you call it?- flavor. 
I have no complaints about this book. the characters were not flat and boring, the plot was fantastic, and the writing was flow-y. 
The ending was a little disappointing considering I wanted the two main characters to end up together. Not that that might not happen with a second book. but that's y only complaint because i was loving the beginning, and even the middle.
