Story

The story

Layla lost her hearing saving James Duncan from an explosion at his law firm, and he knelt in the snow to win her parents' approval, agreeing to a five-year probation before they could marry. For five years he cared for her devotedly, and the wedding was set for February 19th. Then, on Valentine's Day, an accident restores Layla's hearing, and she overhears James arranging a tryst with her best friend, Claudia Foster.

James does not know she can hear again, nor that he and Claudia are being livestreamed. Layla watches him carry Claudia into the villa her parents gave her, photographs the betrayal, and books an abortion. When her mother answers her call, Layla agrees to the arranged marriage her parents once proposed, asking that the wedding go on with a different groom.

James comes home late with a white Alphard as a gift, still signing his love to a wife he believes cannot hear a word.

Opening excerpt

He finally passes his five-year test, but he sleeps with his lover before our wedding. He does it before my very eyes.

He clamps a hand over her mouth and says, "Be quiet. Don't wake Layla up."

His lover giggles and nibbles on his palm. "What's there to be afraid of? She's deaf; she can't hear us."

These are the opening lines of chapter 1. Keep reading →
