“Not By Sight gripped me from the first page. It was well written, heartwarming, and evocative-everything I’ve come to expect from novel by Kay Lyons Stockham.”
~New York Times and USA Today bestselling author
Shelley Shepard Gray
Can you love someone and still be free?
Emma Wyatt agrees to tutor a recently blinded, embittered soldier because of the $50,000 paycheck his brother offers. The … $50,000 paycheck his brother offers. The job is an answer to many prayers. Blind herself, Emma dreams of independence and freedom away from her overprotective family. Tutoring Ian in all things “blind” isn’t easy, especially when the biggest challenge is helping him walk by faith.
Protect someone you cannot see?
Good soldiers show no weakness. Ian MacGregor holds his battle with claustrophobia close to his chest, unsuccessfully trying to cope on his own, too angry with God to seek comfort. Ian knows duty, honor, serving his country. So why is he being punished with this very personalized hell?
As Ian struggles to strong-arm his phobia and let go of his anger, his growing feelings for Emma are overshadowed by the danger lurking around them. Emma would be better off with someone else. Someone sighted.
Someone able to protect her from the person determined to keep them apart…

I REALLY learned a lot about blindness and loved the story.
Truly enjoyed this book. Unexpected twist before the end.
Good book to read. Make you think about how lucky we are to have our sight!
Good character development and an inspirational story.
I had high hopes for this book. I liked the idea of the plot. A little different then the average romance. It loses a little steam toward the end.
An eye-opener for those of us that take sight for granted!
Good ending after along wait for something to happen.
Really enjoyed this story. Did not want to stop reading. Touches your heart.
I enjoyed it it had a different twist to it. Some surprises too
This was a great story. There are blind people in this story but it is not totally about them.
I know several people who are blind (not from birth) and their approach to life is awe-inspiring.
This is a clean and well-written, thought provoking romance with lots of different twists and turns, and dogs which always add to a story.
I received a free copy of this book via BookBub and am voluntarily leaving a review.
This book is well written and full of emotions that pull at the heartstrings and bring tears of both sorrow and joy.
Adjusting to blindness after an unexpected surgical complication is hard to live with. Ian is angry, depressed and unwilling to accept his circumstances.
Desperate to help him, his brother Duncan hires Emma to teach him how to deal with his blindness.
Maybe the saying “the blind leading the blind” will take on new meaning as Emma leads Ian out of the darkness.
This is by far the best book in the Stone River series. I wish the others had as much depth.
