Would you be willing to ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ listen? ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Well, I'm Amber Fields. And this is why I ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ jumped. This story describes the ten days before Amber committed suicide.

~ AVAILABLE ON AMAZON: https://www.amazon.com/dp/164434193X ~ She hated riding the subway. It was cramped, smelled, and the seats were extremely uncomfortable to sit on for hours on end. Now add a group of crazy mask-wearing, weapon-wielding, maniacs to the ever growing list of reasons why Gemma hated riding the subway. Gemma Conners is your average eighteen year old and for the past two years she's been riding the subway to and from school with no problem. She always expected the same ol' same ol'. Cramped spaces, hard seats, and perverts staring her up and down and "accidentally" bumping into her and blaming it on the train as it jostled people into one another. Never did she expect a group of masked men to rush in and hold everyone onboard hostage, demanding that they all play along with their sick and twisted idea of a "game". It was either that or die. To add on to her ever growing list of problems, one of the passengers onboard just so happens to be Archer Daniels, your typical high school "heartthrob" and Gemma's classmate. Her day just kept getting better and better. With Gemma's luck, she'd be lucky if she lasted five minutes. Yep. She really hated the subway. *Book Cover Credit: Irah Marie* Thanks again for making such an AMAZING cover!❤️

Aaron's special powers may have helped him cheat his way through high-school, and they'd certainly come in handy reading the minds of criminals. However, a certain evil is now on the loose after it served its sentence in prison, in search of two specific people, and you can only guess who he plans on going after first. *Note: this is a continuation of Book 1. Characters and names will not make sense without reading Book 1 first as it contains lots of spoilers starting from the second chapter onward. This story DOES contain spoilers starting with chapter 01. The Boy Who Read Minds Book 2 (Mind Reader Series Reading List on my Bio! There are several stand-alone books like Tyler's Story!) #1 Solved for over a year now

"Who is he?" I ask Debra- the first friend I've made on my very first day here at St. Alexander high. "He seems like such a jerk" "Yeah, that's Tyler Cavelli" she replied "The typical high school rich popular hot boy, the one who thinks he's all that because all the girls want to be with him. You probably know his kind- the cliché highschool bad boy" "No I really don't know " I told her "Its actually my first time in highschool- my first time at any school" "Are you serious!? You've been homeschooled all your life?" Debra asked in surprise. "Yeah" I nodded. "Wow, I can't even imagine that" Debra responded shaking her head "Anyway that's Tyler and the one with the long hair is Lucan" "He's cute" I said to her. "Yeah he is, in fact the all of them that hang out together are hot, but they're all jerks; especially Tyler and Lucan... Their parents are business partners and friends so you know they are also good friends too but..." *****Brrriiinnnggg....**** "I'll tell you more about them on our way to class" Debra said hooking her arms with mine "Come on" CLEANERS- the name sounds dirty right? Well that's because it is. A cleaner is one whose job is to get rid of the mess right- they obviously clean something or maybe... someone? When there is a society that is practically run by crime with high scale criminal groups and prominent business men are often the ones behind it, what better way to try and get rid of these high level of 'criminals' than raising a set of unfortunate and underprivileged individuals as trained 'cleaners' to get rid of them. Fight fire with fire right? Use a thief to catch a thief? Reel them in with baits? Put these cleaner in important government jobs as covers for example the police officers?
