Without Words

Amber O'Connor is a girl of few words. In fact, she's a girl of NO words. As a young child, she was reported as being mute, her vocal chords not completely formed, and she was never going to be able to speak. Despite such an unlucky prediction, a miracle happened, and Amber's vocal chords slowly knit themselves together. By the age of fourteen, they were fully formed, and yet Amber still did not speak.

As an intelligent fifteen-year-old taking Junior classes, Amber has still never said a word in her life, and that has impaired her social life. She has never had friends, and, because of that, Amber chooses not to communicate even with writing, for she feels that no one would want to read what she had to say anyways. The only things she ever writes are the assignments for her advanced classes, and she sticks to herself, but what if someone could break her out of her shell, someone who has never been talkative himself? Will Amber finally make a friend, or will she form a relationship that is more than that?
