"Can i buy you a coffee?" he said to her, hope glistened in his eyes but his face didn't dare betray his cool demeanour. In all of her young life she had never encountered such a strange and compelling soul so she did it. ment, she looked over the cliff, huffed one last breath of sanity and let her life take this new path. "Sure, I'd love that..?" He blinked in a momentary wave of disbelief before he spoke. "Siannoch. My friends call me Shy." and that beautiful air arrogance fell over him once more. All she could do was shake her head lightly and smile.

Ari Callahan has no idea how to talk to boys -- or how to talk to anyone for that matter. Enter Zac, the cute new guy in town who won't stop texting her. But is his interest real, or does he have a hidden agenda? ***** Found as a young child washed up on the beach, 17-year-old Ari Callahan has never uttered a word out loud to anyone -- not even her adoptive family. Psychologists have diagnosed her with a condition called selective mutism, but Ari can't help identifying with her namesake character, Ariel, the little mermaid in the fairytale whose voice was stolen by a sea witch. Mermaid-obsession aside, Ari's silence makes socializing tough. She's never had a boyfriend or been asked out on a date. Not until Zac, the confident new arrival in town, asks for her number. But Zac has his own reasons for texting with Ari. He's part of a movement to sabotage the artificial music app called SirenSong, threatening to render human singing obsolete. Zac's collaborators have scoured the globe in search of a singing voice perfect enough to break the SirenSong spell, and their search has led them straight to Ari's beachside town. Will her relationship with Zac help Ari find her voice and unlock the secrets of her origins? Or will he use her and leave her high and dry? Title: Ari and Zac (formerly The Mermaid Hypothesis) Content Warning: This story contains references to selective mutism, suicidal thoughts, and early childhood trauma.

There once was a girl made entirely up of rain. She had always been like that. Nobody knew her, nobody knew why. It was better that way. The rain comforted her, like a lighthouse on a cavernous cliff. Guiding the way though the deafening storm. Words were her storm. To her, they were arrows dipped in poison. Their masters would surround her, engulfing her completely. And attack her with their taunting tongues. They only stopped, when she rained. And when it rained, Boy, did it pour. There was a boy. He would watch from the sidelines. He thought he could help her. What a stupid boy. Little by little, He showed her how things were 'meant' to be. Drop by drop, He extracted her rain. Now, she is alone. The rain is no longer her solace. She considers herself lost. Without the rain she is nothing.

Highest Rank #5 in Humour - Skye Einstein isn't your particular girl, even if she's the great grandchild of Albert Einstein. But don't let the last name fool you, she wasn't born with the intelligent nor talent gene so instead Skye possessed the speciality of staring at delicious males and drooling. Skye seems to have the great aspect of raging hormones and curiosity. Is it possible for one girl with the explicit content Rated R mind be able to get the new kid to notice her? Well frankly, no one can miss Skye as she misinterprets everything dirty and enjoys sharing her thoughts, especially her best friend Jace who is her inevitable sound board. Everything seems so good, so cliche', so inviting and yet... Nothing is what you think it is. This is one humour book that is so much more than you bargained for.
