I wrote this review for Chick Lit Café. Check out their site for book marketing and great reviews!
The Line Between is an exciting, gripping thriller you won’t be able to put down! Tosca Lee has now been firmly added to my must-read list, and this book sits with pride on my bookshelf.
What a character Wynter Roth is: young, brave, loyal and determined. I was mesmerized by the dramatic events that came her way. Outwardly, submissive and accepting of the cult’s rules, yet inwardly wondering what freedom might be like. If she could disappear with Jaclyn and her niece Truly, she’d risk crossing that line and would escape ‘New Earth’ taking her chances amongst sinners. Her sister won’t leave now she’s married, so Wynter keeps her thoughts to herself and determines to stay and be content, so long as she can spend time with Truly.
Things don’t go smoothly, and someone’s plotted against her. Now her dream of a free life has turned into a nightmare, as she’s thrown out of her home, passed through the security gates and into a world she doesn’t know. She’s crossed over. One and a half feet, the distance of a step, that line between Heaven and hell or a single leap of faith. A face from the past, her mum’s friend Julie, turns up like a guardian angel to whisk Wynter to her home, offering Wynter a life she’s suddenly not sure she wants. If this wasn’t dramatic enough, something is going on; something that scares Wynter to death as she begins to dread ‘the end’ has come. People are getting ill and going crazy. Slowly, a virus is oozing its way across America. Fear levels rise. Survival mentality kicks in and all hell breaks out.
The plot thickens when Jaclyn turns up in the middle of the night, carrying an extremely valuable secret. The race is on. Wynter ignores danger and sets off on a mission of vital importance, heading into a world she doesn’t know at a time when panic is spreading. Will she make it in time? Will she make it at all? And who is Chase and can she trust him?
Lots of research make this story (frightening) a real possibility. Life is stranger than fiction, they say, and actual events are the inspiration behind this fabulous piece of fiction. Enthralling, smart, page-turning and unforgettable! The Line Between is a thriller that grips you to the pages and keeps you wanting more. After writing this review I’m going straight to pick up book two, A Single Light, I’m so excited, can’t wait to start reading to find out what happens next!
