About

Maggie was ten years old when she lost her voice. It felt as if a piece of her was stolen away, and the only person who could truly hear her was gentle boy-next-door Brooks Griffin. For decades he was the light during her dark days, the promise of a brighter tomorrow...until tragedy found him and threatened to drown them both.

Our lives are a collection of moments. Some full of yesterday's hurts. Some full of tomorrow's promises.

I've had many moments in my lifetime: moments that changed me, challenged me. Moments that scared me and engulfed me. But the biggest ones—the most heartbreaking and breathtaking ones—all included him.

I was ten years old when I lost my voice. A piece of me was stolen away, and the only person who could truly hear my silence was Brooks Griffin. He was the light during my dark days, the promise of tomorrow, until tragedy found him. Tragedy that eventually drowned him in a sea of memories.

This is the story of a boy and girl who loved each other, but didn't love themselves. A story of life and death. Of love and broken promises.

Of moments.

Consistently topping BOOKTOK's "Books That Make You Ugly Cry" lists, The Silent Waters brings the angst, the spice, and the beautifully painful longing…
