Gianna
There's a common expression I remind myself of every that which does not kill us, makes us stronger. People think I live an idyllic life with my perfect husband, but they don't know what lies beneath the façade. Like the delicate petals of the daisies he loved to give, I was easily crushed-broken, just as he wanted me to be. I've learned to accept what is, but I won't let it destroy me. Instead, I do the only thing I can to survive-I run.
Derek
I knew she had a story. I knew it most likely contained violence. But never did I imagine the horrors she'd been through. I'd waited so long and she'd experienced so much. She was perfectly imperfect, her scars more than skin deep. I couldn't help wanting to get closer. She was strong and there was beauty in strength. I was drawn to it-drawn to her. I wanted to erase her horrors and give her something new to dream about.
TRIGGER This story contains situations of domestic violence and abuse. Some aspects may be sensitive for some readers.

My Thoughts
In The Sound of Silence by USA Today Bestselling Author Dakota Willink, narrated by Sean Crisden, Sarah Puckett, and Connor Crais, an emotionally gripping and dark romantic suspense novel keeps you on the edge of your seat from start to finish. This story is an intense, breathless, and captivating rollercoaster.
Gianna Valentini lives under the shadow of a dark secret. Trapped in a marriage straight from hell to a man who promised to protect her, she endures a sea of abuse and oppression. Her husband, Ethan Walker—a Bible-mouthing, dirty cop—is a monster disguised as a loving partner. The delicate petals of the daisies he gives her are a cruel mockery of her life, which is as easily crushed as those flowers. With his claws tightly around her neck, he chokes the life out of her, leaving her with broken bones and cracked ribs. Yet, despite his reign of terror, Gianna refuses to let him destroy her. She learns to survive by doing the only thing she can: she runs.
Derek Miller had a brief but unforgettable encounter with Gianna on her wedding night. He never forgot the instant connection they shared. Years later, he's surprised to see her again, now living under a different identity. He knows she has a story, a history filled with violence and horrors he could never have imagined. Yet, her scars, both seen and unseen, only draw him closer. He's captivated by her strength and tenacity. Derek makes it his mission to erase her horrors and give her a new, beautiful reality to dream about.
The story's graphic honesty and hard-hitting details are what make it so powerful. Willink doesn't hold back, building the danger and drama until your pulse races with every chapter. The narrative is a mission to empower women, to bolster their courage, and to show that true wonder women walk among us every day. This book is a must-read for everyone, as it sheds light on the reality of survivors and their fight against their own personal Goliaths.
The narration by Sean Crisden, Sarah Puckett, and Connor Crais is a masterpiece in itself. They are the perfect cast to bring these characters and their complex story to life. Sarah Puckett masterfully portrays Gianna, allowing listeners to hear her strength, determination, and vulnerabilities. Sean Crisden is the ideal Derek, bringing out his gentlemanly heart and fierce protectiveness. Connor Crais's performance as Ethan is chillingly perfect, as he effortlessly transitions from a sweetheart façade to a deranged madman. Their performances enhance the story, making it an unforgettable listen. This is a story of hope, courage, and finding safe arms to lean on, brought to life by an outstanding author and a team of mega-talented narrators.
