Eggschange - Glitter Dragons, #4

He thought everything would be easier once he found his mate. Glitter Dragon Dakker has struggled with unbearable envy while watching his brothers get their mates. He vows that if his turn ever comes, he won't fight the compulsion or delay the announcement. Only, when he does find his mate, he's unprepared for a frustrating reality to block his path to happiness. Concert violinist Joshua Rowe has spent his life half a world away from his family, returning to the states only after a catastrophic accident.
In a matter of days, he'll have gathered a few mementos, and then he'll return to his sad but ultimately safe life overseas. Filled with unresolved grief, he puts his emotions into a composition, inadvertently calling a most unusual man to his balcony. Drawn by the music, Dakker is stunned to discover the handsome and talented musician is his mate. The knowing fills him with great joy, but there is no answering awareness in Joshua's eyes.
Worse, there never can be. Joshua is blind. Crushed, Dakker struggles to understand how they can fully mate when the knowing, the most basic part of their mating, simply can't happen. This paranormal M/M romance contains a green dragon-shifter struggling to connect to his mate, an abused human determined to keep him at arm's length, stunning advice from an unlikely source, and a lot of coming to terms before a well-deserved happily ever after.
