Publisher Description
He burns for her…but she can't hear him.
"Unbelievably attractive male seeking roommate. Must be able to tolerate loud drumming and even louder sex. Serious inquiries only."
That was the ad "delicate" wallflower Thea replied to. Stuck in L.A.—jobless and homeless—after leaving her cheating ex, Thea's best option is to move in with tattooed rocker and sex symbol Draven Maxwell. To Draven's dismay, Thea does not trip all over herself when Draven plays his sexy music—mostly because she cannot hear it.
A drummer living with a deaf woman sounds like a match made in roommate heaven, but the scorching attraction between the two utter opposites is hot as hell.
She thinks he is a smug playboy, but he only craves her.
When the heartthrob drummer reveals he is learning sign language to communicate with her, Thea's perception of bad boy Draven cracks. He's…nice? And funny. And puts subtitles on the TV without her asking.
Could the cocky rocker have a heart of gold behind his chiseled chest? And what's up with all those pining looks of agonized yearning every morning he sees her trudge around the apartment in modest pajamas and no makeup?
From enemy roommates to best friends, speaking different languages will not lessen their undeniable connection and sizzling chemistry. Through the thin walls, something becomes much louder than the nightly drum set, and it might sound like love.

Customer Reviews
I’m with the Drummer!!!!
This incredible story had me from the very first page and I devoured it all almost instantly. Thea and Draven have mutual friends in common and when Thea needs a place to crash her only option is to stay with the famous playboy, Draven. Draven is the drummer for a famous band and all his band mates warn him away from Thea because they all have this preconceived idea of Draven, which is wayyyy off. Thea doesn’t fall at Draven’s feet with admiration like most girls do and this kind of irks him, but it also endears him to her in ways. Thea is deaf and when Draven needs to practice this seems like a roommate match made in heaven except Thea has ideas about who Draven is as well. I found both Thea and Draven such beautiful characters that carry the weight of their worlds on their shoulders while keeping walls up because they’ve been burned before. The more time they spend around each other this chemistry brewing between them keeps burning brighter even though they try to fight it, but when they try to get to know the heart of each other something more beautiful starts to bloom. This story will have you swooning one second to laughing the next and then your heart will shatter at the heartache of both their family’s and friend’s that you want to throat punch at times because when all they see are deficiencies in these characters, we see their true hearts and that’s the most beautiful thing of all. Two people fighting to be who they are and seeing their true selves in each other is exactly what Draven and Thea are and I LOVED their epic story.
