BALOGH, MARY — Silent Melody

New York, Berkley. 1997, First Pbk. (ISBN: 0425158624) Pbk. Book, Lady Emily Marlowe was beautiful, wild, and unspoiled. She could not hear or speak, though she listened with her eyes and answered with her smile. She was betrothed to a man who would have her as a pretty possession, a captive listener. But there was only one man for her--the dark and reckless Lord Ashley Kendrick, the childhood amour who inspired her fantasies--then left for India and found another love. Seven years and countless dreams later, he returned to her, and love was born with a dance, a minuet that stirred her soul, a song so passionate it has no words.. Fine.
