"For a touching love story, the characters pop off the pages and come to life! The dialogue is comedic genius. I found myself laughing out loud."
J. W. Steele’s lifelong dream is to be a songwriter. He is an ex-New England Patriots’ quarterback, and was stuck in a marriage he once described as “six years confined to a Turkish prison with occasional time off to go to small appliance sales with the warden,” until she left him. After moving to Nashville, he finds his soul mate, Angela Trappani (“Trapp”). They fall in love, call their act ‘Steele Trapp Mind’, and write songs by waiting for the silence to whisper the lyrics. The sky’s the limit until tragedy strikes. Trapp’s father is a victim of securities fraud, loses everything and suffers a stroke. Although she has quit practicing law, Trapp moves back to Houston to take over his practice. Once there, she and J. W. become estranged after she rekindles a past romantic relationship. J. W. fights to win her back but nothing works. That’s when he grabs his Martin guitar and pleads with music for help. The silence starts to whisper. Finally, he knows exactly what to do
Excerpt
“I was in court once & the case before me was a divorce of two 90 year olds who told the judge they had been miserable for decades. The judge asked why they waited so long to split & the wife said, “We wanted to wait until the kids were DEADʼ,” said Joe Trappani, Houston criminal defense attorney

5.0 out of 5 starsWhispers will make you roar with laughter
Tim Cagle brings it all together with this great story that demonstrates how love does conquer all. The characters truly pop off the page with the greatest sense of humor. Cagle is the master of creative and artistic similes that had me laughing out loud as well as feeling empathy for the values of friendship, justice, and the ability to rise above conflicts. The musical references are outstanding and help create flashbacks of great songs that all readers will enjoy. This is definitely a 5-star book.
