Diamond Silence

Nyla Reyes doesn't do people.

She doesn't do attention, she doesn't do questions, and she definitely doesn't do connections she can't control.

At 20 years old, she's built her entire college life around one goal: stay unseen, stay unbothered, stay intact.

It's working... mostly.

Until three baseball players decide she's part of their orbit whether she likes it or not.

Ethan Brooks is chaos in human form and talks like silence offends him.
Marcus Hale sees too much and says too little.
And Cade Mercer... Cade doesn't say much at all-but when he looks at her, it feels like he already knows something she's spent years trying to bury.

What nobody at college knows is that Nyla used to be someone else. Someone loud. Someone known. Someone who doesn't exist anymore.

And she intends to keep it that way.

But silence has a way of breaking.

And some people don't stay buried forever.
