Sunshine Bailey stopped speaking the day her father died.
Silence kept her safe-until someone used it to control her.
Now she's finally free, starting over in Chicago with her best friend, determined to find her way back to music... and herself.
But freedom doesn't last.
Not when her past won't let her go.
Not when her new neighbor is a cocky, irresistible rockstar who sees straight through her silence.
And not when the boy she escaped is still watching-closer than she thinks.
Because Sunshine may be quiet...
But her story is anything but.
Also, sorry if there is any bad grammar or mixed up words. Editing in process. I wrote this when I was 12 so I'm currently fixing it up a bit. But surprisingly, it's not TOO terrible in my opinion.
Genre: Contemporary Romance/Rom-com
Tropes: Forced proximity, found family
