Crash: A young adult science fiction romance
About Crash: A young adult science fiction romance
The Game is glitching. Reality is cracking. This time, if she loses, everything goes.
Miki Jones has fought through round after round of the Game, but nothing could prepare her for this. Her dad and her best friend lie in the hospital, caught in the fallout of a war they can’t even see. The missions are coming faster, hitting harder.
The Drau are changing—and whatever has been invading her thoughts is growing stronger…and closer. The Committee still expects her to suit up, follow orders, and fight. But Miki is done being a pawn.
With her world hanging by a thread and the walls between the Game and reality starting to collapse, Miki and her team have one last chance to uncover what the Game really is, who’s pulling the strings, and how to stop it before it erases everything they’re fighting for. To save the people she loves, Miki will have to risk the only things she has left: her life, her heart, and the fragile trust that holds her team together. This isn’t just another mission.
This is the endgame. Explosive alien battles. Twisted secrets.
