Giveaway and Blog Tour: Gravity by Melissa West

Melissa West, Tynga's Review, Gravity, Gravity book tour, Itching for books

Today, I’m glad to be hosting one of the tour stops for Melissa West’s debut novel, GRAVITY. This series shows so much promise that I jumped at the chance to share this author spotlight and giveaway with you guys.

Author Spotlight

Melissa West, Tynga's Review

Melissa lives in a tiny suburb of Atlanta, GA with her husband and daughter. She pretends to like yoga, actually likes shoes, and could not live without coffee. Her writing heroes include greats like Jane Austen and Madeleine L'Engle. 

She holds a B.A. in Communication Studies and an M.S. in Graphic Communication, both from Clemson University. Yeah, her blood runs orange.

Here’s a little more information about GRAVITY:

Melissa West, Tynga's Review, GravityIn the future, only one rule will matter:

Don’t. Ever. Peek.

Seventeen-year-old Ari Alexander just broke that rule and saw the last person she expected hovering above her bed — arrogant Jackson Locke, the most popular boy in her school. She expects instant execution or some kind of freak alien punishment, but instead, Jackson issues a challenge: help him, or everyone on Earth will die.

Ari knows she should report him, but everything about Jackson makes her question what she’s been taught about his kind. And against her instincts, she’s falling for him. But Ari isn’t just any girl, and Jackson wants more than her attention. She’s a military legacy who’s been trained by her father and exposed to war strategies and societal information no one can know — especially an alien spy, like Jackson. Giving Jackson the information he needs will betray her father and her country, but keeping silent will start a war.
