Call My Name
Ruby
Lane is a typical girl of seventeen, who is crazy for boys, clothes, and friends, and though she may not act like it, she wants to do what's best for her family.
She continually does whatever she can at church to raise the eyebrows of the elders.
She's crushing on a boy her mother doesn't approve of and does everything she can to change her mother's mind about him.
But then she meets Kyle.
Kyle has the kindest eyes of anyone she's ever met. But when Ruby tries to talk to him, she learns he's deaf, autistic, and brilliant.
But after he's teased at school for the way he talks, Kyle won't say her name.
Ruby would do almost anything to hear him speak her name out loud.
