Rush Book Blitz


Release

Harper Teen

Summary
from Goodreads:
So what’s the game now? This, or the life I used to
know?


When Miki Jones is pulled from her life, pulled through time and space into
some kind of game—her carefully controlled life spirals into chaos. In the
game, she and a team of other teens are sent on missions to eliminate the Drau,
terrifying and beautiful alien creatures. There are no practice runs, no
training, and no way out. Miki has only the guidance of secretive but
maddeningly attractive team leader Jackson Tate, who says the game isn’t really
a game, that what Miki and her new teammates do now determines their survival,
and the survival of every other person on this planet. She laughs. He doesn’t.
And then the game takes a deadly and terrifying turn.

Teaser #1:
He
smiles, a faint curve of his lips that reveals the barest hint of a long dimple
carved in his right cheek. “No, but I can read your expression. And I’ve been
doing this long enough that I know what most people tend to think when they
first open their eyes.”
“Doing
what long enough?”
“This,”
he says, and nothing more.
A
second of silence stretches into two. Though I can’t see behind his glasses, I
have the feeling he’s not looking at me anymore, that he’s scanning the area,
looking for…something. But as I stare at him, I see me—tiny distorted reflections of me in the shiny, convex
lenses.

Teaser
#2:
I
stare at the things in front of me: the Drau. I can’t look away.
Somewhere
in the back of my mind, I remember Jackson talking about Medusa.
Don’t look at
their eyes.
Their
mercury eyes.
They’re
poison.
They
will kill me.

Teaser
#3:
Color
and sound explode, too bright, too loud. Even the air on my skin feels like
it’s too much. My fingers go lax. The bag’s handle slides down my palm, then
along my fingers to the tips, impossibly slow. The world tips and tilts and I
flail for balance.
Luka
grabs my hand and holds tight.
I
blink. My house, my open front door, Dad, they’re all gone. My breath comes in
short gasps and every muscle in my body feels like it’s knotted up tight.
I’m
standing in a grassy clearing bounded by trees.
The
lobby.
We’ve
been pulled.
