Wow....what a beautiful story. Hank is a 32 year old rancher who trolls a country western bar every weekend looking for the next one-night stand. He feeds women lines, uses them and then and disappears the next morning. His pick-up one drunken night is Carly, a 28 year old virgin who had a recent operation leading to temporary sightedness. Major consequences of his callous, deceitful approach result. I really enjoyed his growth, but major slut shaming during the book (virgins don't deserve suchCatherine Anderson delivers an absolutely beautiful love story in Blue Skies. The details into the eye disease that the main character, Carly Adams, has and the fact that Anderson wrote this book after a fan that wrote a letter warmed my heart.

Carly is finally able to see after receiving eye surgery. After a one night stand, she ends up pregnant with the hero's baby. The pregnancy, however, could cause her to go blind again.

Carly, the heroine, just had surgery that's given her vision after being blind all her life. Two weeks after the surgery, she goes to a bar and gets knocked up by Hank Coulter. She was told that getting pregnant right after the surgery would be very bad and now she's going to go blind again, can't afford to take care of the baby on the way,
In this lovely romance I learned a little about lattice dystrophy, a rare condition of the eyes which can cause blindness. Although I googled it I didn't find a lot.Carly Adams was born blind with both lattice dystrophy and cataracts. Although surgery gave her sight, it would not last forever. The insight which this story gave me into the world of the blind was both heartwarming and heartbreaking. Not only how a blind person experiences the world but how difficult it is for a sighted person to
