BLURB:
She’s
nineteen. The President’s daughter. They want her dead.
Poppy’s
father may be the President of the North American Alliance, but that just makes
her a target for those wishing to topple the regime.
Barely
escaping with her life, she must travel across a country ravaged by war and
climate change to seek safety amongst a people who only recently opposed her.
There she must use every skill learned from her military upbringing to survive
terrifying beasts, deadly plant life, and lawless gangs before finally finding
a group willing to accept her.
But her
peace soon proves to be illusory. It’s not only the government that wants her
dead now.

EXCERPT:
We sped through the streets, taking turns
recklessly fast as we tried to lose the bikes on our tails. As we flew around
yet another corner, one of the bikes caught up to me and slapped into the back
of my bike. It wasn’t a particularly hard collision, but it popped my bike
loose from the mag-lev rail, and I went skidding sideways across the pavement.
When the base of the bike hit the curb at the edge of the road, I was flung
over the handlebars to land in a crumpled heap on the cracked sidewalk.
All I could do was lie there, staring blankly at a
weed growing inches from my nose as I tried to catch my breath. From the corner
of my eye I saw Sharra slow and look back, trying to decide if she could help
me. Then she leaned low over the handlebars and shot off into the dark streets,
leaving me behind.
A million small aches and pains made themselves
known as I rolled slowly to my knees. I didn’t bother to get up any further
than that. I was completely surrounded, and I knew I wouldn’t be able to move
fast enough to break loose from all of these people and retrieve my downed
bike. Instead, I waited in silence to see what would happen next and watched
for an opportunity to escape.

AUTHOR Bio and
Links:
After
writing stories in her head for the last 30+ years, Tara finally decided to
take a stab at writing them down to share them with others.
Tara
has a husband, 4 kids, and 5 cats to care for along with a full-time job and
contract work on the side, so finding time to write is the biggest challenge.
Since her most productive hours are from 12-5 a.m. anyway, Tara usually gives
up sleep in favor of writing.

ReplyDeleteThanks so much for featuring my book today! I'd love to answer any questions from you or your readers. :-)
ReplyDeleteAnd now you can see the proof that although I consider myself fairly computer savvy, I still miss some things. I don't know where that old cartoon avatar (from about 5 years ago) came from! Still more flattering than my actual photos though. :D
