Blind Faith - an uplifting journey empowering one man to live and love again [Perfect Paperback]

Michael Kintz (Author)

Book Description

Publication Date: April 16, 2009

Have you ever felt the sting of rejection, or the emptiness of desertion?
Have you ever suffered the pain of a broken heart; the deep ache of grief?
Or simply felt lost, and searched for something to fill the void, but didn't know what it was?

You re not alone...

Dr. Paul Lassiter is wounded by his wife's infidelity and succumbs to the despair of a broken heart. Seeking companionship, he wades into the dating pool where he's befuddled by women whose dispositions range from ridiculous to murderous. When he finally meets 'the one', a freak accident renders him blind.

Anticipating further difficulties, he's surprised when his remaining senses, especially his heart, compensate by opening wider, exposing a new world and revealing a new self. Paul's discovery proves powerful, but is it enough to carry him past his biggest obstacle, and unite him with the love of his life?

Paul's journey from darkness will inspire your eyes to open.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Bitter-Sweet Story, and a Discovery of Life's True Meanings, May 10, 2009

This review is from: Blind Faith - an uplifting journey empowering one man to live and love again (Perfect Paperback)

Over the past 4 years, I've read about sixty novels and although I liked most of them, NONE immersed me into the wonderfulness and bitter sweetness of the story, nor spoke to my inner spirit the way BLIND FAITH did.

Dr. Paul Lassiter's story touched me on so many levels, there's no way to adequately describe my feelings about it in a short review, but I will say that this is the kind of fresh, creatively suspenseful story that makes one's time with the book a very memorable experience. The story drew me in even as it soothed and tore at my emotions. The ending was unexpected, but totally meaningful and profound.

Michael Kintz is truly a master at story-craft, simile, metaphor, and analogy, and I found myself wanting to high-light `quotable quotes' in almost every paragraph!

I'll never forget this book. It's a keeper and will occupy a special place in my bookshelf for the times I want to return to it for inspiration and encouragement. It will also become an ongoing gift idea for my friends and relatives.

I would highly recommend this book. It will definitely have an impact in a way that will stay with you for a long time!

This review is from: Blind Faith - an uplifting journey empowering one man to live and love again (Perfect Paperback)

Through beautiful description and real life emotion, MIchael Kintz delivers the reader into the world of an emotionally wounded Paul Lassiter. The humor that carries the main character through his tragedies tempers his turmoil well. Mr. Kintz takes the reader by the hand, revealing truth so many ignore. Life goes on and has the possibility of being better than ever imagined.

5.0 out of 5 stars BLIND FAITH - Author's comments, April 17, 2009

This review is from: Blind Faith - an uplifting journey empowering one man to live and love again (Perfect Paperback)

I'm Michael Kintz, author of BLIND FAITH. I'm a Nicholas Sparks fan; read 'The Wedding' twice, 'The Notebook' thrice. Wonderful books, I highly recommend. I believe a good story shouldn't force emotion into the reader, but instead, draw the emotion from you. So, I wrote BLIND FAITH to inspire you, dear reader, to evaluate what is important in your life and appreciate those things daily, while simultaneously strumming your heart-strings and wringng your tear ducts dry.
Secondly, I enjoy a quick read. We all are blessed with 24 hours in a day (which never seems enough), and your time is precious, so BLIND FAITH'S chapters are short, with lots of meat, very little fat. (It's healthier than the average novel!) And it's a page turner. Go ahead, try to put it down before you've finished. (wink).
BLIND FAITH is scheduled for launch April 22, 2009. After the stress of tax week, you deserve to relax with a good book. But keep a tissue handy. I look forward to your feedback, comments, questions. Thank you.
