~ 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!❤️

The butterfly effect is a theory in which a small occurrence can change the course of the world completely. I never thought something as small as being at the wrong place at the wrong time could change everything. If I had just stayed put, my life would be completely normal instead of all over the place. I would have lived an ordinary life if I just stayed put that night, but I didn't. My life ended up being anything but ordinary because the event that changed my life were in the hands of unordinary people. With unordinary people comes unordinary events. With them, my life did not lack adventure. With them, my life was far from boring. But without, my life would have lacked despair, sadness, and death. Even with the adventure they brought, do I regret associating myself with the most wanted gang in Seoul? Not one bit. ___________________________________________ WARNING ⚠️: 17+ Mature Content on hiatus
