Waking up was just the beginning ....... The moment of the cars colliding throws Lucy Cuse screaming into darkness. Now she just wants to be left alone. The accident took everything from her. It took her job and her sight., but most of all, it took her independence. A move to an 'assisted living' facility for 'her safety' is out of the question. Lucy is not going anywhere she doesn't want to. No one is making her! Multiple times per week she goes to physical therapy sessions. She hates it but if she goes and does 'just enough', it keeps the well-meaning at bay. Jan, who is recovering from his own horrifying accident three stories up, has been watching Lucy for weeks. She tugs at him, and he can't explain why. When he is asked to "lend a hand" to motivate her, he reluctantly agrees. The blind leading the cripple? There is joke in there he is sure. Lucy is struck dumb by Jan's offering of friendship. He lets her cry and scream, while he doesn't tell her she is wrong to feel the way she does. In a way, he has walked a mile in her shoes. Even if it is on crutches. Lucy takes his offer of friendship and slowly discovers she is still a woman. Jan in turn finds himself falling for the beautiful, yet stubborn woman who truly believes she will get her sight back. When hearts get involved the rules change. Each want what they want, but is the light at the tunnel's end that train each of them has already encountered? Or will they find their way out of the tunnel and into the light that awaits them, together?
