The lovely Holly and I met through the Sunlounger shenanigans, where she won the competition. You can learn more about Holly here and on her blog here.
In the meantime, here's the blurb and some fabulous praise:
When
Eve is rescued from a horrific coach crash by her teachers, she is shocked to
discover they possess super strength and speed.
But what happens next is even more harrowing.
In
the aftermath of the crash she discovers that everyone in her life from
neighbours, doctors, dentists, teachers, shop keepers and even her family and
friends are actually super strength Guardians sent to protect her. They all have one thing in common, a single
minded ferocity that she must be kept alive at all costs.
However,
she is surrounded by secrets and lies.
Those in the know deny all knowledge of what happened that fateful
night. Everyone else carries on as
normal, seemingly unaware of the new strange world that she has stumbled
against.
With
the help of Seth, her best friend, Eve discovers the prophecies surrounding her
true identity and the super strength she too holds. With her Guardians pledged
to protect her, her closest friends ready to die for her, her own hopes and
dreams are put on hold whilst she battles to control the amazing powers she has
been bestowed with.
But
those that seek to destroy her move ever closer. Will the Guardians be enough to protect her
when so many are prepared to stop at nothing to see her dead? And will she be
strong enough to fulfil her destiny when the time comes?
A fast paced fantasy adventure for
young adults.
With high speed car chases,
airborne fights, amazing stunts and super powered beings, this is a story of
loyalty, friendship and love.
Praise for The Sentinel
It’s a book you HAVE to read, because it’s incredible. An outstanding book that has left me bereft its finished. I wished I’d savoured it for longer. This book was one of those that once you started it was impossible to come away from. It was fast paced, exciting, full of suspense and action that had me gasping in shock at twists I never imagined could happen. It’s a story of courage and adventure. And no matter how dark it gets, there’s always love and hope. – Victoria Loves Books Blog
It's really hard to find the words to describe how amazing this book is.
This is definitely the best debut I've read this year! I just love this book, I want you all to read this book, in fact you all need to read this book! - Love of a Good Book Blog
Holly Martin throws Eve in at the deep end, subjecting her protagonist (and readers) to a torrent of drama right from the off. - Jack Croxall (Author of Tethers and X)
