Goodreads Synopsis:

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.

 

My Thoughts:

Holy crap. Talk about a thrill ride. Rush is a high-octane page turner. I was sucked in to every word. Eve was able to trap me into this unique world that she created.

Rush is a unique concept, unlike anything I have read before. An original action packed ride that will leave you begging for more.

I am in love with the characters. The tension between Miki and Jackson is palpable. It brings that extra edge to an already amazing story. This is the kind of book that you will not be able to put down until you get to the end, and when you get to the end, you are going to want to pull your hair out. At least I did.

There is so much going on, but Eve never leaves you confused….well, not totally anyway. I loved every single moment and this book could not have a better title even if she tried. Rush is exactly what this book is—one giant Rush.
