Jasper's voice was like waiting for rain during a drought. You got excited when the clouds went grey, hoping the sky would open and quench your thirst. Even a cool breeze felt like a tease. Every time Jasper opened his mouth it was the same one single drop from a leaking faucet. Yet it was never enough. He was mine. My dear deaf boy. I know you see me. I know you can see me call for your attention. I know you can feel my heart pound and my hands shake when I come near. You don't have to be able to hear to understand these three words. I love you. Do you hear me now?

❝Sure, whatever helps you sleep at night.❞ ❝That would be you.❞ ❝You're a smooth motherfucker, aren't you?❞ In which Nico desperately needs advice and finds a payphone, but he has nobody to call. And then the payphone rings. And Nico answers. And over a series of phone calls with a witty, feisty female, Nico falls in love. But sometimes, God likes to fuck it up a bit. Just for shits and giggles. ---------- Copyright © 2018 by Sierra Soriano. All rights reserved.

Secrets that may cause a pandemonium even in the gardens of heaven. Along with her enthusiastic friend, Allison Crimsom, and quirky companion, Ethan Ingram, she tries to unveil them.
