From the very first page "Be My Eyes" managed to capture my attention and keep it all the way through to the satisfying conclusion. This is a novel that runs the gamut of emotions from despair to hope, anger, happiness and everything in between. It's well-written with vivid imagery, strong dialogue and a plot that resonates with the reader long after the story is over. Dustin Stevens does a wonderful job of pulling the reader into Cole and Ruby's trek across the country as they find themselves growing and changing during the fateful journey, Each of the characters feels authentic in a flawed and very real way; they are very well developed providing the reader with a clear sense of who they are and what they are feeling and thinking as the story progresses. The writing is lush, gripping, engaging and fast-paced... easily keeping you eagerly flipping from page to page until the story is over. Overall, this was a very enjoyable novel that the author did a fantastic job crafting, creating a memorable story from start to finish.
