The Colors of Eliza Gray

Eighteen and deaf, confused as to why her family wears black clothes when the people in a nearby town do not, Eliza Gray has no idea she is Amish. Her peers mock her deafness. Her mother makes her work while her siblings attend school. Still, she manages to find a tiny bit of happiness in life-by creating amazing art with the colors she gathers from nature.

When Eliza fights back against her tormentors, it begins a chain of events she could never imagine. One is when art collectors clamor for her work. Another is having the family she's always wanted through sign language. When she falls in love with her teacher, she must decide between love and being shunned-and the decision could destroy both her and the man she loves.
