Falling in Silence — Criss Copp

New Adult (mature content). Recommended for readers 17+ due to explicit sexual content, harsh language and adult themes.

Imogen is mute... she has chosen to live this way because of her heartbreaking loss five years previously. Her best friend is Adrian, and was her father's gay lover... before he decided to help her.
She's been shunted and shafted her entire childhood, and now as an adult she's just become homeless.

Saxon has worked hard to build a life beyond the slums and drug culture that plagued his parents. He's sworn off women since his history with them is less than stellar. He's a single dad and working hard to provide for his deaf daughter, Bailey.

Imogen hasn't any time for Saxon, despite her physical attraction to him; but she's got plenty of time for Bailey.
Saxon refuses to let Imogen in... she's gorgeous and dangerous; he doesn't need a repeat performance of his past.
Yet their determination to remain indifferent to each other, seems to be at odds with what fate desires, and in rapid time they find themselves falling... despite the silence that surrounds them.
