Samuel Brandt woke up with his thoughts written all over his body. His brother woke up with his head missing. His sister woke up to find that her skin would crack open unless she stayed in water. All of the other children in the secluded Iowa town of Oak Knoll woke up having undergone strange transformations. Now, they are all forced to live at 407 West Marshall Street, the mysterious house outside of town. With the new name of The Boy with Words for Skin, Samuel wants nothing more than to hide from his new life. He painfully and unpredictably sheds his skin, there is a Voice in the entryway closet that is often cruel, and-perhaps worst of all for a naturally shy boy-the other children look to him as a leader. As his seven-year-old brother struggles with their new life, as terrifying growls start to come from the pitch black basement, and as his feelings for a girl begin to grow, The Boy with Words for Skin realizes that he wants to change. He wants to put others first, learn from his peers, and let himself hope that things will get better. The Boy with Words for Skin is the first book in the 407 West Marshall Street series. Each book will advance the story but be told from a different character. Book 2 will be The Girl without Eyes.

CURRENTLY IN THE PROCESS OF BEING REWRITTEN!

'What was that?' I whispered to Cole who had gone pale. 'I don't know' he replied. 'Should we go check it out?' I asked. 'Probably just Keeling dropping a box of files or something'. 'Yeah probably' I agreed trying to reassure myself. Then another crash, this time louder followed by a bone shattering roar. Both Cole and I leapt to our feet. 'Still think it was Keeling?' I asked Cole, he gulped. All it took was one chance sighting in the car park, a high school fight and one disastrous detention for Ivy Waters and Summer Adams to be thrown into a world they had no idea existed. Not only that but they are more involved in this unknown world than they could ever imagine. A new power threatens to rise and wreak havoc and destruction on Eremay. The only ones who can stop it, could also be the ones to aid it. Ivy is the complete polar opposite of Summer as this new power rises she begins to wonder if she's really as "good" as everyone thinks she is.

| SAMPLE ONLY; READ IT NOW ON GALATEA | ❝He's the boy she left behind. She's the girl he let go.❞ ➵ Before she became one of music's biggest up-and-coming artists, Evelyn "Evie" Chase was a nobody at the bottom of the Roosevelt High School food chain with only a handful of friends. Her best friend (and longtime crush)--popular jock, Adam Fields--was her polar opposite, but despite their differences, their bond was as strong as they come. That is, until one day-- one mistake--changed the course of their friendship forever, and the once inseparable duo never spoke again. Fast forward three years, and everything's changed. Evie has the world at her feet, now out in L.A. living her dream as a seventeen-year-old popstar-- leaving the town, the boy who broke her heart, and those who'd made high school unbearable behind. Meanwhile, Adam--at Roosevelt finishing off senior year and still the school (and town's) beloved "golden boy"--is trying his hardest to let go of the past and the girl he let get away. And it's going well, the two of them living their separate lives. Until Evie's back. Suddenly, seventeen and senior year just got a lot more interesting.

His arms were wrapped around her waist as his lips moved from her chin towards her neck. ''I want to share my future with you'', he whispered. Two wizards are about to risk their lives to be with each other, as their love is obvious with everyone. Even how much Ginny wanted it to be a secret, especially from her many brothers, it seemed to be impossible. As the whole school started to know, Draco began to worry. Their love couldn't be discovered outside the great castle, both of them would've been doomed. Would've love won again or were their lives worth living apart from each other?

'AVADA KEDAVRA!' And with that, my mother was dead. I'm Molly Potter. The first child of Lily and James Potter and older sister of the famous Harry Potter. While my little brother was living with the Dursleys and getting through life, this is what I was doing. It all started when I was 4. When I whitnessed the death of my parents and a big man taking away my brother, while I was forgotten. Soon after, a tall man with greasy black hair wearing a black cloak came in. He was crying. He slid into a sitting position on the floor before grasping my mother's dead body in his arms and rocking forwards and backwards.
