TEMPEST Time

So awhile back, I held a contest to win an ARC of Tempest by my lovely agent sister, Julie Cross. Now I’m thrilled to announce that Julie is coming to my hometown this Thursday night. That’s right. She’ll be at the Centerville branch of the Washington Centerville Public Library at 7:00 on March 8th. The event is free and you don’t need to register to attend. More information can be found at http://www.wclibrary.info/.

And in case you haven’t read Julie’s book yet (um, why not???) check out the description below. Oh, yeah, and it's going to be a movie soon, too. How cool is that? Hope to see you there!

TEMPEST

The year is 2009. Nineteen-year-old Jackson Meyer is a normal guy… he’s in college, has a girlfriend… and he can travel back through time. But it’s not like the movies – nothing changes in the present after his jumps, there’s no space-time continuum issues or broken flux capacitors – it’s just harmless fun.

That is… until the day strangers burst in on Jackson and his girlfriend, Holly, and during a struggle with Jackson, Holly is fatally shot. In his panic, Jackson jumps back two years to 2007, but this is not like his previous time jumps. Now he’s stuck in 2007 and can’t get back to the future.

Desperate to somehow return to 2009 to save Holly but unable to return to his rightful year, Jackson settles into 2007 and learns what he can about his abilities.

But it’s not long before the people who shot Holly in 2009 come looking for Jackson in the past, and these “Enemies of Time” will stop at nothing to recruit this powerful young time-traveler. Recruit… or kill him.

Piecing together the clues about his father, the Enemies of Time, and himself, Jackson must decide how far he’s willing to go to save Holly… and possibly the entire world.

  1. The book sounds really good and the cover is beautiful. I looked up the library and saw that it is not actually in Washington *sigh* but rather Ohio. :(
