ameliorate (v.) to make a bad situation, better. book TWO in the "ineffable" series. (based on the book series, the naturals by jennifer lynn barnes) IN WHICH vada hartley is still learning how to live with everything she feels- the memories that don't belong to her, the boys who might, trying to make sense of what's hers and what's not- the memories she feels, the grief she carries, the love she might be allowed to want. the team is called to vegas for a high-profile case wrapped in secrets and patterns. the case asking too much of her mind, and even more of her heart. michael is warm, constant, and kind in a way that feels safe. dean is distant but impossible not to notice-especially when he looks at her like he's trying not to. and vada doesn't know what it means to choose, only that someone might end up hurt. as the stakes rise and the clues start to come together, vada is left trying to make sense of everything-what she knows, what she wants, and who she is without someone else's memory pressing into her skin.

Scarlett Hart built her life on silence - silent memories, silent scars, and a past she refuses to look in the eye. Oxford is the one place she feels almost safe... until a killer begins recreating murders that feel far too familiar. When the FBI's elite teen profiling program - the Naturals - pulls her into their world, Scarlett discovers a talent she never knew she possessed: she can bend people with nothing but her voice. And someone out there remembers that talent better than she does. Someone who once called her his. As Scarlett grows closer to the Naturals - and to Michael, who sees past every wall she puts up - the monster from her childhood surfaces, leaving bodies, threats, and a message meant only for her. When her best friend disappears, Scarlett realizes the truth she's been running from: The killer isn't after victims. He's after her. To save the people she loves, Scarlett must confront the darkness she escaped - but the man who made her won't let go without a fight. And when the case finally breaks... A new danger rises. Because evil doesn't end - it evolves. ""A Naturals fanfiction""

Meet Thea Carter, expert hacker and mechanic. She can fix any machine fast. She can build anything, given the right supplies. She can hack her way into any device she wants. And now she's under arrest for hacking into a secure FBI database. Director Briggs and Special Agent Sterling decide to offer Thea a choice: either a prison sentence or join the Naturals. Without much debate, Thea chooses to join the team. The FBI knows that, like the other Naturals, Thea has a past. What the FBI doesn't know is exactly how dangerous Thea's past is. Or that the past is coming back to get her.

They say trauma sharpens the senses. For Kaira Lovelace, it created a weapon. At twelve years old, Kaira was found drenched in her father's blood. Her mother, missing. The killer, gone without a trace. They said she was lucky to survive. But Kaira knew better: monsters don't leave survivors by accident. Now seventeen, Kaira is a Natural, an Echo Analyst with the uncanny ability to hear what others miss, trained by the FBI to solve cold cases alongside a team of brilliant, broken teens. She's built a new life from silence and steel. A life where nothing catches her off guard. Until now. When a new recruit joins the program, secrets start to unravel. Old nightmares resurface. And the truth Kaira has spent years trying to forget claws its way into the light.

Used to staying up all night, caught up with the past Lenore shared with her twin brother, she never expected anyone to be up with her. The dim light of the moon shone on his face as she couldn't help but question him. "Why me? Why now?" She pleaded for answers but all she got was a simple shrug. Lenore wished everything was as simple as that shrug. The creaks behind her growing louder as the patterns around her grew stronger, a stranger in the shadows. Was Lenore watching or being watched?

Felicity Elizabeth Briggs isn't normal. Not that being the daughter of two renowned FBI agents was ever "normal" but ever since that frightful day in the lab six years ago when her Aunt Scarlett Hawkins was brutally murdered right in front of her, Felicity has been extra abnormal. She doesn't know why she can see the things that she does, but she isn't alone. After a string of serial murders that occur in her very own boarding school, the FBI arrive on the scene and Felicity is once again reunited with her parents who she hasn't seen in years. Not only that, but since the last time she saw them, they've met and looked over kids her age who are just as abnormal as she is. When a new case involving a string of brutal murders in Las Vegas requires her parents and the other Naturals' help, Felicity agrees to join them and along the way uncovers old secrets from her Aunt's unsolved murder from all those years ago. *update schedule is between me and God
