When Helena finds a phone on the night train, she decides to text the first number in the list of contacts in order to figure out who it belongs to. ***** Helena Santos hasn't had the easiest life. At twenty-one, she's the legal guardian of her teenage sister, in the final year of her nursing degree, and working night shifts at her small-town's local bar. And things get a lot more complicated when she finds a phone on the train home and decides to text the first number in the list of contacts, in hopes of tracking down its owner. That contact?

#717 in Teen Fiction 8/26/17 People say that love is blind... But it's also deaf. When Holland meets Aaliyah he's blown away by her talent and beauty. When he finds out she's deaf he's blown away. Will/can this be love? Will they accept eachother? ALL RIGHTS RESERVED! I don't know how many of you guys are going to read this. But this is 2019 Kennedy, and I just would like to say that there are things that might be offensive, there are things that are in accurate, and honestly I did not do my research before writing this book. There are some things that are slightly unrealistic, and I'm really sorry if it hurts or offends anybody, that is not my intention. I know now that the author I was back in 2017 is just a little slice of the author I have become in 2019. So I sincerely apologize for all the representation that is not accurate. But I assure you after I finish the second book I will come back and re-write this.
