About this listen
This title was originally released in book form as SAVING MARS.
In this sweeping coming-of-age saga, disaster threatens the Mars colony’s survival, and a seventeen-year-old pilot might be Mars’s last hope. But when Jessamyn and her brother undertake a raid on ex-ally Earth, her brother is captured and accused of treason by Earth’s powerful Chancellor.
Things get worse as Jess starts falling for the Chancellor’s rebellious nephew. Now she discovers that she holds the fate of her home world and of her brother in her hands, and soon she will have to choose between them.
A spellbinding saga of love, sacrifice, and the indomitable spirit of a young pilot caught between duty and love.
