Jeyn Roberts
A streetwise girl trains to take on a gang of drug dealers and avenge her best friend’s death in this thriller for fans of Scott Westerfeld and Robin Wasserman.   Heam: It’s the hottest drug around. Users are able to see Heaven—a place so beautiful, so indescribably serene, many people never want to come back. And some don’t, like Faye’s best friend, Christian. But when Faye was forced to take Heam, she didn’t see Heaven; she saw Hell. And now she spends her nights training to take revenge on the men who destroyed her future and murdered Christian. When a mysterious young man named Chael appears, Faye’s plans suddenly get a lot more complicated.   Love and Death. Will Faye overcome her desires, or will her quest for revenge consume her?

The Bodies We Wear by Jeyn Roberts is about a teenage girl, Faye, and her pursuit of revenge on the men who took her life away when she was eleven years old. Faye lives in a collapsing society that thrives on the drug Heam. When Heam is taken, it is said that its users see a glimpse of Heaven. When Faye was only eleven years old, dealers forced Heam on her and her best friend, Christian. Christian died. She was miraculously saved by Gazer, her current guardian, but something has forever haunted her; instead of seeing Heaven, she saw Hell.
