About Recoil

What if the one thing you're really good at … is hurting others? When an expert gamer gets recruited as a sniper in the war against a terrorist-spread plague, she discovers there's more than one enemy and more than one war. The Game is real, and love is in the crosshairs. Three years after a series of terrorist attacks flooded the US with a lethal plague, society has changed radically. Sixteen year-old Jinxy James spends her days trapped at home - immersed in virtual reality, worrying about the plague and longing for freedom. Then she wins a war simulation game and is recruited into a top-secret organization where talented teenagers are trained to become agents in the war on terror. Eager to escape her mother's over-protectiveness and to serve her country, Jinxy enlists and becomes an expert sniper. She immediately falls for Quinn O'Riley, a charming and subversive intelligence analyst who knows more about the new order of government and society than he is telling. Then a shocking revelation forces Jinxy to make an impossible decision, and she risks losing everything. Recoil is the first book in a fast-paced, compelling Young Adult dystopian romance trilogy, and makes great reading for fans of the Hunger Games, Divergent and 5th Wave trilogies. BONUS CONTENT! Chapter one of Refuse (book 2 in the Recoil series) included in this version!
