Steffi ne parle plus.

Rhys n'entend pas.

Mais ils se comprennent parfaitement.

Ses parents inquiets de l'incapacité de parler de leur fille dans les situations de stress, essaient tous les traitements médicaux et psychologiques qui leur sont proposés. Paradoxalement c'est la surdité de Nick qui sortira Steffi de son mutisme. Entre langue des signes, regards éloquents et autres moyens de communications improvisées, les deux adolescent tissent un lien très fort.

Steffi doesn't talk, but she has so much to say.

Rhys can't hear, but he can listen.

Their love isn't a lightning strike, it's the rumbling roll of thunder.

Steffi has been a selective mute for most of her life - she's been silent for so long that she feels completely invisible. But Rhys, the new boy at school, sees her. He's deaf, and her knowledge of basic sign language means that she's assigned to look after him. To Rhys, it doesn't matter that Steffi doesn't talk, and as they find ways to communicate, Steffi finds that she does have a voice, and that she's falling in love with the one person who makes her feel brave enough to use it.

From the bestselling author of Beautiful Broken Things comes a love story about the times when a whisper is as good as a shout
