Where Silence Sings
She hasn't spoken a word in years. He's got a reputation that screams trouble. Anya Thorne's voice was stolen by a past she can't escape. Kidnapped, abused, and left for dead, she survived, but her words died with the trauma. Now, her only solace is the college music room, where, after hours and utterly alone, her unique, hauntingly beautiful voice can finally sing, a raw whisper of who she truly is. Jasper Knox is the campus bad boy. Tattoos, piercings, and a rebellious streak a mile wide. He's constantly butting heads with his strict father and has no plans beyond dodging expectations. But late one night, leaving detention, a melody drifts from the music room-a voice that stops him cold. He hears her. Really hears her. Drawn by the secret beauty of her song, Jasper finds himself obsessed with the silent girl. As he slowly, patiently, chips away at Anya's deep-seated trauma and fierce paranoia, a tentative trust begins to bloom. He shows her his own hidden world-a raw, emotional talent for the piano, a passion he's always concealed. But their fragile connection is threatened by every side: Anya's overprotective parents who fear Jasper is too dangerous, his demanding father who sees Anya as a distraction, Jasper's manipulative "bad girl" girlfriend, Cassidy, who's determined to tear them apart, and the whispers and rumors that follow them across campus. And for Anya, the shadows of her past are always lurking, threatening to pull her back into the silence. Can the bad boy and the broken songbird find a harmony together, or will their combined scars leave them more shattered than before?Complete

Our Secret [Completed]
[Book 2 in the Secret series] "That's not what I meant..." I chew on my lip. "Well, what the fuck did you mean then?" He shouts. "When I'm there I don't have to think about you!" I yell back. Wrong choice of words again, Sophia. I curse myself. His form immediately stands and he strides over to me, he is now inches away from me, his body is so close to mine that I am forced to take a couple of steps backwards. My back is pressed up against the window. Noah's breathing is deep but he speaks softly, "when you're there all I can think about is you." He raises his hand and tucks a strand of hair behind my ear. I step around him and head for the door, "uh I'm going to go to the hospital." I pick up my bag and rush out of the door leaving Noah in the room and saving myself from doing something I would definitely regret and make me change my mind about going back to Pennsylvania. ------------ 'I love you too,' were the last words Sophia heard before she was banished from her home city and she left without a second thought.
