Thought Traps
by Lindsay Price Canadian Author
Ariane walks around with her own personal black cloud. She throws up barriers, lashes out and refuses to tell anyone what she’s thinking.
Kate is the exact opposite. Happy, bubbly, outgoing and personable.
But even happy people have issues. And there are more similarities between the two teens: both Ariane and Kate deal with people from their past who invade their head space, and pull them into thought traps. Will either be able to set themselves free?
