Publisher's summary

Avery Castle carries the weight of a thousand moments of sorrow.
Donavan Hardy carries enough anger for them both.

When they were young, Donavan learned sign language so he could talk to the deaf beauty. He cared, even when Avery's influential father couldn't be bothered with her "flaw."

In spite of things, the bad boy made her fall in love with sound . . . with music.

They couldn't have been any more different, but he was always meant to protect her, just like she was always meant to calm his rage.

And then, Avery's world came crashing down when the love of her life disappeared without a trace, leaving her broken-hearted and pregnant. She loses her baby, the last bit of him she has left, and her world plunges deeper into darkness.

Seven years of hurt, confusion, and pain collide when they are thrown back together. Avery has to decide if the life she's been living with the sizzling Cuban cop, whom her father approves of, is worth not having Donovan back in her life. But Donavan is fighting for her forgiveness, to prove that deep-seeded secrets far greater than their love tore them apart.

Donavan will force Avery to return the key to her heart no matter the cost....

Contains mature themes.

Terrible twist

The female narrator sounded stiff like Siri and the male narrator's voice was too deep and grating. I liked the idea of the book and was caught up in the suspenseful moments. Then the book ended with a lame twist. I'll probably check out part 2 out of curiosity to see how it goes.

Whirlwind of a Story

The book was so intense I had to take half a year before being able to finish it, my emotions were to strongly tied to this story that I became lowkey paranoid about all men I dated probably being a murderer... glad I was able to finish it, though my lil heart still almost exploded. I cannot believe there were so many twist and turns, overall definitely worth the read. haha
