Weighted Silence (Complete)

When trauma and PTSD take away Dion's voice, he fully accepts it. Safe and sound in his small hometown in Colorado, population: 51, he embraces the silence of his existence, wanting nothing more than to get through each day without being reminded of the past. Most days, he succeeds, until she comes to town, bringing the pain of his past right to his front door.

Saylor has never been out of the big city, so finding herself in a town so small that there isn't even a motel, let alone any fast food, is a whole new experience for her. Especially considering that she's there to settle the affairs of a father she never met, one with a dark reputation whose history just happens to coincide with a quiet local boy.

Though Dion is obligated into helping Saylor in her quest, the more time they spend together, the more he realizes he doesn't want to let her go.

But Saylor's only in town for a week. How can she bear to help Dion heal only to leave him when the time comes to go home? And how can Dion find his voice again in time to ask her to stay?
