Cherry blossom lipstick: check Smokey eyes: check Skinny jeans: check Dead kid in the mirror: check For sixteen year old Mattie Hathaway, this is her normal everyday routine. She's been able to see ghosts since her mother tried to murder her when she was five years old. No way does she want anyone to know she can talk to spooks. Being a foster kid is hard enough without being labeled a freak too. Normally, she just ignores the ghosts and they go away. There's a little glitch this time. The ghost she sees is her foster sister, Sally. Everyone thinks she's just another runaway. Mattie knows the truth, though-she's dead, murdered. Foster kids look out for each other and Mattie feels like she has to help Sally, but she can't do it alone. Against her better judgment, she teams up with a young police officer and together they set out to discover the truth of Sally's disappearance. Now the killer has set his sights on her. It becomes a race to see if she can find the truth before the serial killer finds her.

What is an Unspoken? That's a question that The Unspoken can't answer. It's a secret that has to be uncovered, but by whom? Echo? How could it be when she doesn't know the answers herself? Echo Avery has been in hiding for years, ever since her people were attacked by the Enforcers - humans with a hatred for her kind. Just a girl with special abilities, that she can't control, and a strange rose like marking underneath her left eye, Echo finds herself in way over her head when she is taken by her worst enemies. Suddenly, Samuel-an Enforcer with hidden secrets and old memories - comes into Echo's life without a warning. Forbidden or not, it feels like love. But is he using her for another purpose? As lies and secrets are revealed, faith is challenged, and certain truths come to light, Echo finds herself tasked with the salvation of her people. Except who is she? Who are the Unspoken? How can she save the world when she doesn't even understand herself, or her powers? These are questions she ignores. Because with the sliver of knowledge she has, she is going to free The Unspoken. If she doesn't get killed first.

Hey. I'm Liberty. That boy at school who is the sportiest, most popular and apparently almost cleverest too is DEFINITELY not related to me in any way at all. Yup. He's definitely not my brother - in public. We kept it that way for a long time to avoid any trouble. Until that tsunami hit and there's only one person in the world I'm left with. Take a guess. You won't be wrong. ----------------- Copyright © 2014 thechocolatebutton *please do not steal my work!* -Credit to GirlNextDoor4U for the brilliant cover :D-
