Prompt: 90. See no evil
Stevie Falcioni: She walked in on a murder and escaped with her life but not her vision. If she regains her sight, she can identify the man who killed her friend and attached her. If she regains her sight, she can see for the first time the face of the man she's falling in love with.

Allister Quaid: He'd been convicted of a crime he didn't commit. Now, five years later, he's out of jail, trying to rebuild his life. But when his partner is murdered, Allister is set up as the fall guy for the second time.

Just Allister's luck to fall madly in love with the one woman who can send him back to jail this time for life!

Summary: Being an investigative journalist meant spending hours on a story; sometimes even placing yourself in mortal danger. The story he was following was no different, except that it was and Jared ended up being blinded and suffering from amnesia. He has no idea of who his attacker was or if he would end up being blind permanently.

Jensen didn't mean to attack the lanky man, and he had all the intention to go and apologize until he saw the police and the lead detective talking attempted murder, while the doctors discussed their patient's lost of eyesight. It scared him and with his shady past, he did the only thing he could do and he ran.

But fate intervened and when someone tried to kill Jared, and it was up to Jensen to keep Jared safe. When things became hairy both men realize that they have to place their trust into each other if they wanted to get out alive. Will Jared's sight and memories return, will Jensen be able to get past the guilt he was carrying around and will they finally open up and tell each other they are in love?
