Book Tour: The Rising by @heathergraham @JonDLand @torbooks #BookReview #Giveaway

 
From acclaimed thriller-suspense novelists Heather Graham and Jon Land comes a story of action, mystery, and the endurance of young love.

Twenty-four hours. That's all it takes for the lives of two young people to be changed forever.

Alex Chin has the world on a plate. A football hero and homecoming king with plenty of scholarship offers, his future looks bright. His tutor, Samantha Dixon, is preparing to graduate high school at the top of her class. She plans to turn her NASA internship into a career. When a football accident lands Alex in the hospital, his world is turned upside down. His doctor is murdered. Then, his parents. Death seems to follow him wherever he goes, and now it's after him.

Alex flees. He tells Samantha not to follow, but she became involved the moment she walked through his door and found Mr. and Mrs. Chin as they lay dying in their home. She cannot abandon the young man she loves. The two race desperately to stay ahead of Alex's attackers long enough to figure out why they are hunting him in the first place. The answer lies with a secret buried deep in his past, a secret his parents died to protect. Alex always knew he was adopted, but he never knew the real reason his birth parents abandoned him. He never knew where he truly came from. Until now.

I haven't had to bingread a book within two days in forever!  It felt good, like really good! And this book was great! This was a fast paced thriller that will knock your socks off. So much of this book would spoil it.  But this is one book with twists turns, an out of this world mystery, suspencse and more.  The characters were great as well, you really feel everything they feel go though.  The only thing I had an issue with was the ending. The entire story felt like a stand alone, but the ending sets the stage for a book two.  I am excited to know what will happen but as of yet online says this is a standalone.  So that is slightly scary. 

Bottom line is that these two authors need to write more together!
