It was pity that first made Dannie speak to him. She had known Ryan since she was a kid, but he had always been the popular Golden Boy, and she had always been the tomboy that didn’t mind not having any friends. It was odd, she had thought, that all the popular kids who had once kissed the ground he walked on, didn’t so much spared him a glance anymore, and it was this that made her sit with him that one faithful day and begin something that would only end up causing her pain.

Brae is your average 17 year old girl, except that she won't speak. Her mother left when she was just a little girl, forcing Brae and her dad to fend for themselvses. Her best friend, Liam, is one of the most popular guys in school. Practically all the girls in the school have a crush on him, what with his jet black hair that falls in his piercing green eyes, natural tan, and just an overall good guy personality. Will Liam be able to save Brae from herself or will her secret end up overwhelming her?
