The Empaths (Book one in The Empaths series)
26 parts Complete Seventeen-year-old Lucy Owens is struggling. It's been two years since the death of her parents, but she just can't seem to get a handle on life without them.
After her Aunt moved Lucy and her twin brother, Jared to a new town, Lucy thought that maybe things would get better - and they did, for the most part, but her crippling anxiety and the constant feeling that she just doesn't quite fit in have left her in a rut.
That is, until two new families move into town.
With their arrival comes the unveiling of a family secret that will change Lucy's world, forever.
She is an Empath - the strongest and most powerful her family has seen in generations.
Now she must learn to harness her new-found power, overcome her anxiety, and find the strength to lead her group of friends as they embark on a journey to return their families to the place they really belong. Their true home - Eleos.
Will Lucy have the courage to take on the role of a leader? Or will her fear win the battle, costing not only her life, but the lives of those she loves most?
This is a story about friendship and family, and the simple truth that sometimes, all the strength you need is in the hearts of those that stand beside you.
