A teen girl who sees visions of the past must use her gift to save a kidnapped classmate in Shani Michelle’s high-stakes YA thriller You Should Have Seen This Coming!
Hayden sees the past. Just touching an object will occasionally give her flashes of the previous owner’s memories. And if that memory happens to be a deeply hidden secret, then she has no problem making you pay for your crime, in cash.
Cassie sees the future, and it sucks. She will randomly wake up from dreams filled with disasters that she feels compelled to stop, and she would really like to stop watching her boyfriend fall in love with someone else!
But when Cassie tries to warn Hayden that her latest blackmailing scheme is a trap, she knows she’s really in trouble. All her visions warn her of the upcoming kidnapping, nothing she does stops it. And it’s all Hayden’s fault!
Can Hayden’s gift help her find Cassie before it’s too late?

Enjoy this peek inside:
She doesn’t look convinced, but I don’t wait for her to protest. I squeeze her hand and get out of the car. “Thank you,” I call out, and wave as I head toward the building.
Rehearsal hasn’t started yet, and the school feels really empty. Like it’s deserted. I know there must be a janitor or teacher somewhere, but still, it’s kind of eerie. I rush to my locker and take out my journal. I hug it to my chest and promise myself I will not forget it again.
There’s a creak from down the hallway.
“Hello?”
There’s no answer.
Must be the wind, or the building settling. Nothing to worry about.
I start back to the door, but I hear it again. Footsteps this time.
“Who’s there?” I say. I turn around. Nothing.
I look around again. It’s not dark, but it’s not bright, either. About half the hall lights are off, creating large shadows all around me. I know it’s my imagination, but I feel like they’re closing in.
There’s a buzz, and I jump. It’s just my phone. I glance at it and see it’s Audra texting me. I’m about to respond when I hear a creak again.
“I said, who’s there?” I call out.
Still no response.
This isn’t a mind game or shadows messing with my head. I know someone’s there. They’re watching me. I can feel it.
“Hello?”
What do I do? What’s my best move? Leave.
But how? What’s the safest way? The main entrance? The emergency exit? Scream and hope someone is nearby to help?
Think, Cassie.
I freeze in place, trying to sense where they’re hiding, to hear their breathing, to see something.
I need to go. I need to get out. I need to get to people. Now. I race toward the emergency exit, my heartbeat quickening with each step. As my hand touches the door, someone slams me against the wall. I can’t move.
A cold, hard piece of metal rests against my neck, and everything goes black.
