One of the best stories I've ever read. Simply beautiful. - Anonymous - Apr 29th, 2002   

Excellent story. I found it to be very touching. The characters will touch your heart immediately and the reader will find herself submerged into their lives. - Anonymous - Jun 5th, 2002

Absolutely wonderful. Do not miss this story. Just perfection. - Kayryn - Sep 24th, 2004   

This is just a wonderful piece of work! Only... well, it's too short! *g* - Amastre - Mar 14th, 2005   

This is really a wonderful story. - Anonymous - Feb-06-2008   

I read this story a long time ago and reread it again later. I just now saw it again while browsing and remembered how incredibly good it was. I laughed, I cried, and I absolutely fell in love with these characters. You *have* to read all three in the series, even if they grab your heart and make it ache sometimes. - Chris - Jun-18-2008   

This story is absolutely beautiful. Two lonely people coming together and fulfilling one another. The character development was excellent and very well paced; you could really see each character realistically trying to overcome their fears. If you're in the mood for a sweet story about characters genuinely struggling to overcome their "issues" and allow themselves to be loved, give this one a try. - Word_Mage - Jul-16-2008   

I thought I had read almost everyone here. I was wrong!!To my wonderful surprise I stumbled on this one.How lucky am I!! She graced us with beautiful characters.I found myself so wrapped up in this book that it kept me up for 2 nights.This is beautifully written story!!!! - Manatee - Apr-24-2009

Loved the story was sad when one of the main characters was thought dead I have read it many times and cry every time. It inspires me as a writer to continue writing no matter the issue. - martinezjleigh - Dec-04-2013   

One of my favourite story Or should I say all 3 of them. This is so well written you will love it Thanks colleen it amazing xx - SD - Sep-25-2015   

We may be only up to part two, but Colleen already has a winner here!The prequels, "At First Sight" and "Seeing You Again for the First Time" were two of the most romantic, moving, heart-stirring tales I've ever read, and "Blindsided" is following in tow. Jamie and Erin make a beautiful couple and Colleen makes beautiful music with them, leading all of us in a soul-moving heart-dance! Bravo, Colleen! - Michelle - Jan 25th, 2003

French Reader - Archangel - Sep-23-2009   

Well Frenchie I hope you read English better than you write it. Because your contribution doesn't make any sense. (I feel authorized to say this as I am French myself). As for the story, I don't really know where it goes but it's well-paced, well-thought and the characters or situations sound real. I hope Colleen will update soon. - Condorcet - Dec-10-2009   

Waiting for the next chapter! Has a nice pace and the romance is great! - irishone - Mar-29-2010

light hearted Halloween story. Romantic, with a touch of passion and a twist at the end. It's third in a series, but it reads fine as a standalone too. - Lyn B - Apr-10-2011   

What a sweet story, crafted like a rose unfurling slowly revealing itself to the delight of all. Very well written - Lari - Feb 25th, 2004   

Very moving and sweet! - Urs - Dec-27-2007   

Sweet story. Very romantic:-) - Lyn B - Jul-22-2011   

Colleen writes a good short tale of a sweet,tender and enduring love. - uber goober - Sep-01-2011   

This would have been the first perfect sequel I've ever read but was about 7 chapters too long. I feel bad saying this especially when I absolutely loved "At First Sight" and adore Colleen's work. Sorry. - Anon - May 16th, 2002   

this story was in my opinion excellent!!!! - Krysta - Dec 18th, 2003   

A true classic, dont miss out. - mjf - Aug-25-2008   

One word: EXCELLENT!!! - Dani Lucian - Jun-17-2009   

Kept me on the edge of my seat. Read this triology - it's a wonderful treat. Characters are lovely. Great author. Thank you for sharing your talent with us. - x/g fanfic fanatic - Jan-31-2010   

Just as good as the first tale . This one has a bit more angst in it but as the author says she saps up the wrap up so alls well that ends well.I highly recommend reading it. - uber goober - Aug-28-2011   

I found this sequel to the first story "One Perfect Rose" to be as entertaining as the first tale. Both are very sweet and tender tales of a forever love between soulmates. - uber goober - Sep-01-2011   

This is a beautiful romantic story filled with love for the holidays. - Anonymous - Dec-13-2009
