The Mute Swan's Farewell

Nerissa, heiress of the Menard Group, sacrificed her wealth and family for love. When her boyfriend Brian Shaffer lost his hearing and speech in a car accident, she walked away from privilege, pretended to be mute, and devoted three years to his care. When Brian miraculously regained his voice, he abandoned her—ashamed of his past and of the mute woman who had stood by him—and slipped into another's arms. Betrayed and devastated, Nerissa finally leaves. Determined to reclaim her name and future, she refuses to be silenced. With Michael Yeager at her side, she will speak, love on her own terms, and rise from the wreckage of the past.
