Description

In a world that often demands we conform to narrow definitions of success and identity, finding someone who truly understands the inner landscape of your soul is a rare gift. Blindsighted is an intimate, poignant exploration of two hearts navigating the complexities of discovery, vulnerability, and the transformative power of being fully known. For the protagonists of this story, life has been a series of guarded interactions and carefully constructed shields. But as their paths cross, the carefully curated masks they wear begin to slip, exposing the raw, aching honesty of their true selves. This isn’t just a romance about falling in love; it is a profound journey of self-acceptance. As the characters peel back the layers of societal pressure and personal fear, they are forced to confront the difference between being looked at and being truly seen. Zan Hough weaves a narrative that captures the beautiful, messy uncertainty of becoming who you were meant to be. With lyrical prose and deeply relatable stakes, the story serves as a mirror for anyone who has ever felt like an outsider in their own life. Blindsighted is a breathtaking testament to the courage it takes to stop hiding and start living in the light.

Two guys predestined to fall in love

It was such an enjoyable read. I really got lost in the story and found it hard to put down. For any young person struggling with identity and "social norms" of what it means to be loved and in love, it is a must read. How I wish I had this book when I was that age. I truly hope we are living in a world where this sort of space for self-discovery and expressions of love are becoming the norm rather than the exception. Looking forward to what comes next for Neil, Cade and the rest of their friends.

Great debut novel

I just finished Zan Hough’s debut novel Blindsighted. And it didn’t disappoint. I loved the dynamic between the two main characters, Neil and Cade, and the story of their budding romance. Also, the European locales felt extremely accurate, having been to many of those places myself. I wish novels like this had been around when I was younger. I’m looking forward to what’s in store for Neil and Cade in the future.

Great book! If you love a good romance novel, add this to your bedside table. Beautifully written with well developed characters, this flows through an exciting senior trip abroad with an even more exciting and dramatic return to real life, with all its struggles and challenges. You will be rooting for Cade and Neil, and their friends as they navigate relationships and learn about themselves along the way. Unforgettable, vulnerable, and heartfelt; this is an excellent debut novel from and up and coming author. I look forward to his next book!
