“If this dog loves me enough to lay down his life for my survival, how can I just give up?”
One misstep on a mountain climbing trip plunged Brenden McCarthy into darkness by stealing his sight—and everything else he held dear.
But a too-independent guide dog named Nelson just might lead him back to life…if they don’t kick him out of guide dog school first.
Brenden can’t accept the fact that he’s lost his sight. And Nelson can’t accept the fact that he’s been paired with someone other than his former master.
Just as Brenden starts to live again, a devastating setback causes him to try to end it all. Brenden releases Nelson and sits down in the middle of an intersection. At that moment, everything changes when Nelson freely decides he’d rather join Brenden in death than live without him.
Now they need a leap of faith—and a love beyond words—to make it. Together.
