    About this ebook

    “Peace, woman. I swear, you have no sense of humor whatsoever. I’ll accept your deal on one condition.”
    I wait for him to continue but he doesn’t say anything else. It's like pulling teeth. “What's the condition?”
    “You have to go on a date with me.”
    “What?!” I ask incredulously. “Are you serious?”
    “Serious as taxes. Which is as serious as it gets. You know how the IRS goes ballistic if they don’t get their dough on time.”
    I ignore his prattle. “You realize that you’re blackmailing me into a date, don’t you? That’s desperate, even for you,” I say in disgust. “Don’t you have any shame?”
    “Yes, I realize that. And no, I do not. The Greeks wouldn’t have won the Trojan war if they had felt too ashamed to hide in a wooden horse,” he quotes cheerfully.
    “So you’re comparing going on a date with me to winning a war?”
    “Hm...Yeah, I guess I am,” he answers, completely unfazed. “Take it or leave it, it’s up to you.”
    I take a deep breath and try to think about this rationally.
    One date in return for a chance at winning the Championship.

    Blue Smith has leukemia. Having already undergone several cycles of chemotherapy, she isn’t sure how much time she has left. All she knows is that she’ll do anything to live, not for herself but for Sky, her charming little sister.
    Just when she’s lost all hope, she is transported to Vitalis, a far more advanced planet than Earth. Every year, Vitalis holds a Salvage Championship in which hundreds of dying teenagers from Earth compete in teams of five to complete a set of Tasks. Tasks that test their strength and acumen. The competition is fierce because the prize for winning? Perfect health. Players of the winning team go back to Earth...completely cured.
    When Blue finds herself allied with an innocent ten year old, a gorgeous but abrasive blonde, an annoyingly arrogant cynic, and a handsome jock who is way too laid-back, she wonders if her team can even pass the qualifying round.
    As she struggles to keep her team from being eliminated, she starts to notice some strange things on Vitalis. It’s sunny all the time and the people are a bit...off. Although she is more than happy to ignore the weirdness of the planet, Jack (her teammate) won't let her. He insists the Vitalians are hiding something from them. Having no other choice, Blue reluctantly joins Jack in his quest to uncover Vitalis' secrets. And while fighting for her life, she finds herself falling for the one person she thought she'd never trust.

      It’s strange how one moment can change the rest of your life. For me, it was lying on the floor, looking up at the worried faces of my family. In that moment, I somehow knew that things would never be the same. Growing up, I’d always been quite an o
