    Alessandra has never believed in safety. Life never gave her a reason to. Pain carved her childhood, silence became her armor, and trust? That was a luxury she could never afford. So when she runs -- bloody, broken, and barely breathing, she doesn't expect saving. She certainly doesn't expect to be taken in by a family dripping in wealth and power and. . . warmth? A mother who refuses to give up on her. A father who watches like he's waiting for her to let him in. And six brothers. Rough. Protective. Complicated. Brothers, who don't know what to do with a sister who won't speak. She doesn't know how to trust. How to believe that maybe not everyone wants to hurt her. Every instinct tells her to run. To shut down. But they don't let her go. Not when she flinches. Not when she hides. Not even when she breaks. Happiness is for other people, or that's what she believes. But when love comes wrapped in gentle patience and fierce protection, when hands reach for her without demand, when hearts break themselves wide open just to hold her... she starts to wonder. Can a girl stitched together with silence and fear ever belong in a family built on love? Can she stand tall when the ghosts of her past refuse to let go? And when danger claws its way back into her life, threatening everything she's come to know... will she find her voice, or will she shatter all over again? Trigger Warnings: Child abuse. Violence. Addiction. Panic attacks. SA. Self-harm. Death, and more.

But life doesn't always play the way's expected, and Gemma's life of before can only stay as that: in the past.

    Clara hasn't spoken a word since she was four years old. When her parents decide to spend their later years in a small town, she has no choice but to follow - back into a house full of strangers, noise, and people who expect things from her she doesn't know how to give. She retreats to her room, her books, and the dark, empty bath where everything feels controlled again. Then there's Stas. Twenty-five, easy-going, embedded in every corner of the town - the kind of person Clara has spent her whole life avoiding. He's only there to fix the pipes. He's not supposed to notice the girl watching him through a cracked door. He's definitely not supposed to be the reason she finally speaks. But some things can't stay unsaid forever.

    "Go ahead," I said, backing up against the pink wall of the shop. "Do something other than glare at me." I waited. One, two, three seconds... and nothing. I raised my chin at him. "You're boring me, mute boy." He stepped closer. Leaned toward me as his gaze burned into mine. Then... ❀ ❀ ❀ After three months in juvenile detention, it's time for Romy Pereira to help out with her family's flower shop. And it's not all bad... until they hire Jack Michel to work beside her. He doesn't speak, communicating with glares and scowls instead of words, and seems to be more interested in literal rocks than other human beings. And with an ex-convict mother, her friends drifting away, and the flower shop falling apart, the last thing Romy wants to deal with is Jack's attitude. She'll forever praise the day he screws up big time and gets himself fired, but until that day comes, it's mostly one cold-hearted girl, her silent (but still infuriating) coworker, and a whole lot flowers.

    Aurelia and Elara - the youngest twins and the only daughters of the De Santis family - were once the heart of their household. Inseparable, gentle, adored. Where one went, the other followed. Their parents cherished them. Their brothers protected them. But everything shattered the night eight-year-old Elara was found bleeding on the floor... and Aurelia stood over her, a knife in her hand. Blamed for a crime she didn't commit, Aurelia was sent away to a strict boarding school for "troubled children." Her parents believed discipline would straighten her out. What they never imagined was the truth - the cruelty hidden behind the school's walls, the sadistic methods used to "teach," and the horrors Aurelia was forced to endure. Now sixteen, after a devastating incident inside that school, Aurelia is brought back to the De Santis mansion. But it's not a homecoming. It's an obligation. A reminder that she is unwanted, distrusted, and viewed as a threat by the very family she once loved. Follow Aurelia as she relearns how to exist in a home that no longer feels like hers. Uncover the truth of what happened that night, what really happened to her within the school, and whether the De Santis family will ever face the truth of what Aurelia had to endure and do to survive. ─── ・ 。゚☆: *.☽ .* :☆゚. ─── "What should I ache for?

    Avery van der Nacht, a UConn commit for women's basketball and the symphony orchestra, is a dominant center who plays upright bass. Fully deaf in her right ear and reliant on a hearing aid, she also has severe selective mutism-only speaking to her sister Lena and Lena's girlfriend, Hana Muhl. Half Dutch, half Croatian, Avery grew up moving from the Netherlands to Atlanta, while keeping strong ties to both cultures. A marine biology major and music performance minor, she had full-ride offers from schools like Harvard, Yale, Stanford, UConn, Duke, U-M, MSU, Princeton, Dartmouth, Brown University, and UGA, before choosing UConn. Now, as she steps into college, Avery will form an unexpected friendship with Azzi Fudd-but how does someone who barely speaks learn to be heard?

    Copyright © 2026 FeistyWarriorMiracle All Rights Reserved® To the rest of the world, she is just a ghost in a crowded room. For years, the words have trapped themselves inside her throat. She grew up in a house where silence was the only acceptable option and where her family constantly made her feel that speaking up was a mistake. Over time, she learned to hide her voice just to stay under the radar. Now, the anxiety has tightened its grip, leaving her with nothing but a silent echo of the thoughts she is too afraid to say out loud. She thought keeping quiet was the only way to keep the peace. But stepping away from her family's rules means learning to survive on her own. Alone in her own space, away from the expectations that silenced her, she begins the slow process of unlearning everything they taught her. In the quiet of her own company, she must find a way to overcome her selective mutism and realize that her voice actually matters. A Note on Well-Being:Before you begin, please know that this book deals with anxiety, selective mutism and recovering from PAST emotional family abuse. While the story focuses entirely on healing and independence-and will absolutely NOT contain any graphic or explicit descriptions of abuse-your peace of mind comes first. If these themes are still triggering for you, I highly recommend you don't read this story. Please take care of yourself!
