In the serene suburbs, a family resides in a stunning glass house, an architectural marvel that symbolizes transparency and openness. The father, a respected pastor, preaches about morality and truth every Sunday. However, behind the pristine glass walls, each family member harbors a secret that contradicts the image they project. The two eldest sons live in fear of their father's judgment, hiding their love preferences. The second son battles a crippling drug addiction, his struggle hidden in the shadows of the transparent home. Meanwhile, their youngest sibling unbeknownst to him, is actually the biological child of the family's trusted butler. This hidden truth adds another layer to his already complex journey of self-discovery. The glass house, meant to reflect perfection, becomes a fragile shell, concealing the profound and poignant truths of a family striving for authenticity.

Loud Silence - Book One
Miles is nervous and quiet. He graduated early to escape the bullying and chaos of high school, but adulthood hasn't offered the escape he had hoped for. Isolated and adrift, he struggles with panic attacks, loneliness, and memories that refuse to stay buried. His world shifts when he meets Atticus. Confident, kind, and impossible to ignore. Miles quickly begins to crave the connection he never thought he deserved. As their relationship deepens, so does Miles's hope that maybe someone could love him enough to help him heal, but the past has a way of catching up. Because love, as beautiful as it is, doesn't always drown out the noise, and silence can be louder than anyone realizes. Set against a backdrop of late-night parties, quiet heartbreaks, and moments of painful honesty, Loud Silence is a slow-burning, coming-of-age story about identity, survival, and the terrifying hope of letting someone in. This is the first long-form story I've ever written. I would love feedback as long as it's respectful. This story has been swirling around my head for years, and I'm excited to finally fight against my own anxiety and put it out into the world. ⚠️ Trigger & Content Warning ⚠️ Loud Silence contains boy x boy romance and deals with heavy mental health themes, including depression, anxiety, self-harm, suicidal thoughts, abuse (emotional, physical, and sexual), sexual identity struggles, and death. I do everything I can to portray these themes honestly and respectfully. Reader discretion is strongly advised.
