I'm excited to share this cover reveal for Enhance

I'm excited to share this cover reveal for Enhanced by my amazing friend @candace_kade_author releasing from @enclavepublishing in March 2023! This first book in The Hybrid Series, a YA sci-fi trilogy, is available to preorder in hardcover today. Not only is Candace incredible, but I’ve been fortunate to get to preview the story and all I can say is that you’re gonna love it…it’s so unique and action packed!

Here’s a bit about the story….

In a society where everyone's DNA determines their destiny, being a Natural means automatic relegation to the dangerous Outskirts. Adopted into the Enhanced high society of the Asian Federation, Urban is forced to conceal her genetic roots. Her lifelong goal of attending Peking University becomes a deadly trap as she’s targeted by a hacker bent on exposing her DNA. Can Urban continue the act, or will the cracks in her story expose her and endanger her family?

Carol awards 2022!
What a joy to be there in person, meet new friends, and see some familiar faces. Thank you to the @acfwcommunity for an incredible night and huge honor!

I mess up a lot. Take a lot of wandering paths. Get overly creative. Don’t always read directions. And spend a lot of time starting over. And over.

Each new start shows me something different than before. Opens new paths and adventures—In writing, and life. But I don’t delete old drafts. Cause I never know when that line, character, or scene might want to resurface 😉
What about you?
