Struggling artist Sadie Montgomery never saw what was coming... Literally!

One minute she's celebrating placing as a finalist in a prestigious portrait-painting competition, the next she's lying in a hospital bed diagnosed with a "probably temporary" condition known as face blindness. She can still see - but every face she looks at is now a jumbled puzzle of disconnected features.

As she struggles to hang on to her artistic dream, work through major family issues, and take care of her beloved dog Peanut, she falls in love - not with one man but two. The timing couldn't be worse.

Making judgment calls on anything right now is a nightmare. If only her life were a little more in focus, Sadie might be able to have it all...
