This book was provided to me by the Authors for review.
I was totally hooked from the first sentence! Loved, loved, loved this book and can't wait for the sequel. Well written, captivating and a really great storyline. A must read - definitely!
Slightly dissapointed when it ended though, purely because it ended and now I have to wait for more. I normally don't enjoy this genre, but could not put it down at all. I read until early hours of the morning, every morning and every spare minute I had, even cooked with it in my hand!
Willow and her friends are really interesting characters and keep you on your toes with their exploring and new-found abilities.
The trailer is great and this book could definitely be an amazing movie!
Definitely worth reading. Thanks Courtney and Rebecca for writing such captivating books, may you write many more!!

Twenty-six pages into this book I was already crying my heart out. Thanks to the authors’ remarkable writing, I got attached to Willow and her family in a span of only a few pages. You’re probably wondering why I cried while reading the second chapter of this book, right? Well, all I can tell you is that no parent should be expected to make such a choice as the one Willow’s parents had to make.
I’m still new to post-apocalyptic novels, but this book smacked my reader curiosity spot on. “Project ELE” fits perfectly into the end-of-the-world-as-we-know-it category, and the plot intrigued me from the start. Reading about our world in a time where the sun is burning the earth to a crisp through the holes in the ozone layer, isn’t too far from the truth, and it forces you to consider the horrific possibility of trying to survive in such a devastating climate. The authors took this scenario and put a few interesting twists on it, creating the F.E.M.A shelter in a dying world, but with a plethora of new possibilities within the safety of the shelter where Willow and her friends attempt to adjust to a new way of life as well as their newfound powers.
The shelter Willow and her friends had to move to in order to survive, really captured my imagination. Living inside a mountain for months on end, with only a few of the amenities found in today’s world, secret underground locations discovered by her and her posse, and their developing paranormal abilities, kept my interest throughout the book. A bunch of twists leading up to a shocking, cliffhanger ending, has me excited to read the next book in this series.
“Project ELE” is an intensely unique and enjoyable read. It captures the imagination and invites the reader to explore a post-apocalyptic setting with a multitude of secrets, discoveries and a good dose of betrayal. Think scientific experiments, mostly likeable but also some creepy characters, paranormal abilities, hidden passageways and caverns deep inside a mountain; and then throw into the mix a fat helping of action, suspense, and romance, and you’re onto a winner. A must-read for paranormal romance fans of all ages!

Desperately Wanting More
I was given a copy in exchange for my honest review.
This is the first installment to the ELE Series.
A virus hit, killing millions, and the government attempts to save what is left of the human race by setting up Project ELE into place. The remaining survivors are forced to leave their homes, some even their families, and stay in FEMA shelters.
Willow's world comes crashing down on her as soon as her families numbers are called. Forced adapt to her new way of living, she makes a few friends, starts school, and working. If life in the shelter isn't strange enough, her and her friends start have strange powers. Now they have to learn what is going on to them without anyone finding out. Who know what would happen if the wrong people found out what they could do.
Loved this book! It kept me interested from beginning to end with all the suspense. Very well written and the characters are amazing. The ending left me with and OMG feeling. I can't wait for the next installment. I am desperately wanting more, I can't wait to see what happens next. A must read!!!

Well I definitely did not get much sleep last night. Wondering why? It’s because I could not stop reading Project ELE! This book was absolutely amazing and definitely a must read for anyone that likes a good book.
Co-authors Rebecca Gober and Courtney Nuckles wasted no time at all getting my hooked. Within 20 minutes of reading, I was already reaching for the tissues.
Project ELE is an apocolyptic book that introduces us to 15 year-old Willow Mosby. There has been an outbreak of a virus that is killing off the human race and the only way to eliminate it is by heating up the earth to unbearable conditions. They have set up shelters for the healthy to stay during this process, so this will be Willow’s new home. She leads a rather boring existence at first, but soon she is able to make friends and even find love.
The new rules she has to abide by are pretty strict, but once she settles into a routine of work and school she is able to make some time for fun and adventures.
After being in the shelter for awhile, strange things begin to happen. Is this only happening to her? Why isn’t it happening to everyone? And just what exactly is up with her eye? How is she going to handle it if outsiders start to notice? Willow has a lot ahead of her, will she be able to survive it?
I would say out of 5 stars, I would give Project ELE atleast 10. I laughed, I cried, I got angry, I was basically on an emotional roller coaster for the duration of the book. Once I got to the last page, all I wanted was more. Rebecca and Courtney leave you with a cliffhanger for sure. I will definitely be following up with the sequel later this year to find out what happens.

I received this book from the author for a review.
At first I was afraid I wouldn't like this story, the first two chapters didn't grab my attention and I thought awe man...but after that things picked up and the characters grabbed ahold of me and pulled me along for a fun-filled and emotional ride. All in all, I love Project ELE!
In Project ELE there is a virus killing the earth's population and the UN has pulled down the patches to increase the earth's temperature in hopes of killing the virus. Families are standing in line for days hoping and praying that they are healthy enough to be admitted inside the F.E.M.A. shelter to be protected from the deadly temperatures. Strange things begin happening to Willow and her friends and not everyone can be trusted.

From the beginning, the grammar and spelling errors are just about every page; the author's frequent misuse of words and terms is distracting. Story development was decent, but when the protagonist started making bad decisions, I skipped to the last chapter. The first story doesn't close and a new story stacks on top. Glad I saved my time.

This book was not at all what I expected. I was really interested in it, and I had no qualms about my children reading iys content. I am curious as to where the story will go. I will definitely be reading the others in this series.

This book was amazing. It was fast paced and the character development was phenomenal! I recommend everyone reads this book. I hope to have the opportunity to read the rest of the books in the series. The only negative that I can come up with is...IT ENDED!

I love this book! I was immediately sucked in to the world these authors created, and I could not read fast enough!
Willow and her family are waiting in line to be allowed in to the shelter that will keep them safe from the end of the world. The action starts before they even get through the door, and it just never stops. Willow gets assigned a job and makes new friends. These friends keep her distracted, and they band together when the bullies come around. When things start changing, these friends work together to find out the causes. They discover the doctor who helped create the shelter is not as benevolent as he would like people to believe. Willow and her friends try to solve the puzzle, wondering if they are as safe as they thought in this shelter.
My only complaint about this book is the way it ends. It's very abrupt, and you must buy the next book to see what happens next. If you can't stand a book that ends with a cliffhanger, this is not the book for you. But, if you're willing to commit to a series, you can't go wrong with this first book. The dialogue is believable, the characters are people you feel like you know, and you'll want to buy the next book the second you read the last words of this one. This book is fantastic, and I wholeheartedly recommend it to people of all ages.
