Cora, Faye, and Raina live in a small town in the middle of nowhere called Araville. Araville is normal, except for one very important thing. In Araville, is a magical tree that just so happens to provide magic for all of North America, and Cora's family is sworn to protect it from anyone who would try to harm the tree in any way. The humans in Araville have no idea, but the Onavei--a magical species that a lot of the town's population, including Cora, Faye, and Raina, happen to be--are fully aware of the tree's power, and live in Araville because of it. But what happens if a plot to destroy the tree, and in turn, irreparably damage magic was uncovered by these three? What if they aren't sure who to trust, because anyone, even their parents, could be a part of this? What if something horrible happens before they can stop it? What then?

I found a person who calmed my wild soul. I wrote down my love in poems and random thoughts. Now.. with shaking hands.. I am handing them to the world. Maybe someone will relate. Maybe someone will see that even the darkest soul can be brightened. So within these pages is my bleeding heart that is slowly becoming whole~

Ashlyn hasn't spoken a word since the age of eight, and her heart's never felt more protected. But, when the confident and ever so charming Derek stumbles into her quiet little world, her emotions-and forbidden desires-have never been so loud. ***** For twenty years, silence is all Ashlyn Holland has known. Haunted by the memories of her father, and the harrowing song of the ocean that stole him from her, Ashlyn maintains a safe distance from the rest of the world. Treading carefully the sea of fear and anguish that surrounds her, Ashlyn is determined to do all she can to protect her heart from such a tragic loss striking again. In silence, she grieves. In silence, she is safe. In silence, she finds the strength to breathe. But the silence can only last so long... Derek Moreno is charming and devoted, and quick to see through every wall Ashlyn erects. With his arrival in town, defences fold and walls begin to crumble, the songs of her heart reaching new heights. Together, they crest twin tides of fate, the silence she'd once sought engulfed by his gentle touch, and the whispers of a love thought impossible. For the summer, Ashlyn welcomes the noise. The disruption. But, the ghosts of Derek's past will no longer remain silent, and their deafening power has the potential to drag them both into a current strong enough to drown them amidst their heartache.
