Locked in a prison of silence… Cassie Steward has not spoken a word. Ever. A congenital birth defect robbed her of the ability to speak. Craving independence from her overprotective, well-meaning mother, she gets a job at the antique store in their small town. Yet, the fact remains she’ll always need to write notes to communicate. Then she meets Psy, an alien with telepathic abilities. From the moment his mind touches hers, the universe seems within her grasp, and she envisions fulfilling all her dreams with Psy at her side. Soon after encountering the beautiful, shy Cassie, Psy realizes she’s his genmate. It doesn’t matter she can’t talk—he loves her as she is. But as their telepathic connection deepens, he begins to suspect her inability to speak is more than a congenital happenstance. Something far more sinister appears to be keeping her a virtual prisoner. He’s certain his psychic powers can unlock the secrets in Cassie’s mind. But will revealing the truth liberate her…or destroy their bond? * * * * The Alien Castaways (Intergalactic Dating Agency) series Available Now: Chameleon Wingman Psy Coming in 2021: Shadow Inferno Tigre

Cassieis growing ever more frustrated with her overbearing mother! She understood the guardianship order when she was younger, but she is 23 now! She thought that getting her job at the antique shop would have loosened the reins enough to be able to broach the subject but just as she gets one foot out the door, her mother always seems to be able to yank her back with some drama or other!

Psy is enchanted with Cassie. She may not be able to speak but her thoughts are clear and untainted by malice like some humans. As they grow closer he wonders if their medical bay would be able to repair whatever may be wrong with Cassie's vocal cords. But he doesn't want her to think that he only wants her if she can talk!

Finding out Psy can "talk" with her is such a relief, no more having to scribble things down. But will their fragile, new romance be able to withstand mother dearest?

Psy finally gets his genmate! I so love this little story, it's nice to have heroes and heroines who aren't "perfect". Disabilities do not need to be hidden away and whispered about. I appreciate the way the author handled Cassie's differences and whilst we find out that it's not a "true" disability, it's still seen that Cassie just communicates differently and it never makes her "less" than any of the other characters. I LOVED hating on mummy dearest though, what an odious beatch of a woman!
