As many of you know, back in 2013 I wrote a novel called Love in Touch, a love story about a guy who is deaf and blind. Ruth Madison published it for me with Dev Love Press, but since then Ruth has decided to close the press and get out of the publishing business.
I have republished the book on Amazon myself, in a second edition. The content is the same but the formatting has been improved. You can get it here:
Only $2.99, or FREE if you have Kindle Unlimited. If you haven't read it, please do! Thanks so much to all the PD members who have read it over the years and left reviews. If you haven't written a review please do so, it really helps. And also please upvote the positive reviews you agree with. For some reason one of the few negative reviews is currently on top but if you can help change that by upvoting other ones.
Thank you!

Thank you so much Annabelle! I know some people don't like to leave reviews on dev books because of privacy concerns, but upvoting reviews by other people is totally anonymous, and it really helps to get the positive reviews on top. Thanks again!

A beautiful story. I really enjoyed it. I don't often buy books because I have kindle unlimited, but I bought this one and it was worth it. I had worked with Deaf-blind adults as an intervenor when I was a college student. It was an amazing job with people I came to love, we had so much fun. So this story is close to my heart.

Wow, thank you so much! I have never met a deafblind person, so I just based it on research and imagination, plus some details of other PWDs with other disabilities I have met. I'm so gratified to hear that it is realistic enough to someone who worked as an intervenor. This comment made my day! Thank you!

You are welcome. The truth is, every single Deaf-blind person I met was different. I never met anyone like the man in the book. Each and every person I worked for had diffetent outlooks and attitudes. It depended greatly on which was the first disability. The deaf culture is complicated and intense. They are also really hard on outsiders, or were 20 years ago. Anyways, again, i think it was a great book, and this thread makes me want to read it again because I read so much that I forget details.
