My mother's last sound was a lullaby. Mine, if I'm not careful, will be a scream.
In a city where sound is power, one voice is enough to start a revolution.
Seventeen-year-old Maren Voss has kept her voice silent for ten years - ever since the Choir took her mother's for singing a lullaby. She survives in the lower city trading illegal sheet music and staying invisible. She never sings. She never hums. She never makes a single intentional sound.
Until the night four accidental notes split a stone wall in half.
Now she is hunted. Her only option is a dangerous alliance with Cael Ashvane - cold, secretive, and the son of the lord who destroyed her family. He is hiding something that could bring down three centuries of Choir authority. And the most powerful voice in the kingdom has just arrived in the lower city, looking for Maren by name.
She has been silent long enough.
The Gilded Silence is a dark young adult romantasy of forbidden power, enemies-to-lovers tension, and a city on the edge of revolution. Perfect for fans of Sarah J. Maas, Victoria Aveyard, and Holly Black.
- Enemies-to-lovers slow burn
