My talented little sister just published her first book! I’m so proud I could bust. The book is awesome, and not just because she’s my sister, either. The story is fast-paced and engaging and the characters are very lovable. It’s a YA (young adult) suspense novel that — get this — does NOT involve vampires. I know, right? Here’s the book trailer and the blurb from the back cover:
When the Tiger Smiles
by Sonja Stone
By the time 16-year-old Emma Riley realizes her life is in peril, she’s at the bottom of a canyon 2,000 miles from home.
Like any self-respecting overachiever, Emma is thrilled when she’s invited to attend a small private school a few weeks into her junior year. Recently dumped by her boyfriend (for her ex-best friend), she’s ready for a change. However, the recruiter from Desert Mountain Academy fails to mention one pertinent detail: her new school is a training facility for future spies. She’s briefed on arrival and, despite the intimidating curriculum, she’s determined to make the most of her opportunity. But when her classmates learn that a double agent has infiltrated the student body, her situation takes a deadly turn.
As it turns out, the girl Emma replaced didn’t die in a car accident—she was murdered. The administration quietly suspects Emma—she is the new transfer. Evidence against her begins to accumulate, and her gorgeous new boyfriend can’t ignore it forever.
Emma’s being framed, and she’s desperate to clear her name. Meanwhile, the real double agent will stop at nothing to protect his or her identity—including an attempt on Emma’s life.
Tell me you’re not hooked! Can’t wait to read it, can you? Well, good news! You can get it right now for your Kindle on Amazon or your Nook onBarnes & Noble, and print copies will be available on Amazon on August 1!
Want to know more about Sonja Stone? Rumor has it she’s already hard at work on a sequel.
Take a look and pass the word, especially to any young adult readers you may know. You’ll be glad you did. Plus, every time someone buys the book, God kills a vampire.
