Rise of the Sun
 Book one in the Sun Trilogy

Published March 26, 2009

Boy meets girl, girl meets boy. Life should only be that simple.

Ben is a 19 year old boy with amazing abilities who wishes with everything he believes, to be normal. Ben Brady and Katie Bearing fall desperately in love, only to be torn apart by the Disciples, men who are hungry for Ben's abilities. Rise of the Sun is a story of love, loss and war. Each chapter of these two characters' lives will make you wish superheroes never had to exist. Set on a small island in Alaska, a place where Ben won't be called to use his abilities, the two teenagers endure every type of suffering while finding their one true love. Each would give up everything to help the other stay safe, never could they have known what that would truly entail. It is a story of real heroes and the villains they face.

This Young Adult novel includes everything from romance to war. When Ben and Katie tackle a relationship doomed for the worst, it is their embedded love for each other that helps them survive. Decisions have to be made that will alter everyone's lives forever, but how can you ever know which decisions are the right decisions? It is the struggle that is life and will always be. To die or to survive. Sometimes the easiest decisions are the hardest of all.

When your abilities do not define you, what truly matters will begin to shine.
That is the rise of the sun.
