Hello Everyone!
Annnnnd welcome to the cover reveal for the first book in our new trilogy, The Modified :D The Modified has a tentative release date of late September/early October.
It’s a futuristic (Sci-Fi like with a mix of a little dystopian too) paranormal
series that takes place slightly in the future, and deals with genetically
modified human beings in a war against an unknown race called the Bringers (more on that later). This
series is also more romantic than The Childe series and little older as
well, but will still be considered Young Adult.
Now, this cover reveal is special to us for three reasons: 1) It's hosted by Rachel from Young Adult Novel Reader 2) There's a nifty giveaway lined up and 3) We're being joined by 40+ bloggers who have all offered to help spread the word! Below you will find a list of all the bloggers who have graciously offered their time and blog space :) We can't even begin to thank them enough and we're tremendously grateful.
We're SUPER excited to share this cover with you and hope that you guys like it as much as we do. Sooooo here it is...THE COVER FOR THE MODIFIED:
What would you sacrifice to save the one’s
you love? To save the one who holds your heart? To save the world?
Kenley
Grayson is all too familiar with these questions.
After Earth is
thrust into its first intergalactic war with an unknown race called the
Bringers, our military forces begin to suffer heavy losses. Desperate for a
solution, the Allied Federation issues a worldwide draft for every able seventeen-year-old
to enlist. As Kenley turns seventeen, she finds herself thrown into the very
war that took her older brother’s life.
This year’s draft
is a little different than in the past though. A new program, known as the
Magnus Project, has been introduced, and only the best and brightest qualify.
Kenley is amongst a select few whom are chosen to join this elite group of
soldiers, and as a part of this project, undergoes a modification procedure
that leaves her and her peers endowed with powers beyond their wildest dreams.
As Earth continues
in its struggle against the Bringers, Kenley is transported to a high-tech
training facility, the Magnus Academy, to prepare for the major battle that
lies ahead. It’s here that she meets the California heartthrob, and son of a
legendary war hero, Landon Shaw. As unexpected feelings toward Landon begin to
develop, Kenley wonders if this is the right time or place for romance to
bloom, especially when those feelings start to interfere with her training.
With the weight of
the world on her shoulders, Kenley is constantly reminded of how important she
and the rest of the Magnus cadets are to the fate of humanity. She is one of
the Modified, Earth’s last line of defense against utter destruction.

DeleteHopped over from the Bootheel blog to tell you how much I liked your cover and surprise! A giveaway! Thanks so much. Wonder what the glowing is all about? Is it only when touching? I am intrigued.

Thank you so much Laura! Annnnd you're very welcome for the giveaway :D We thought it was the least we could do. To answer your question, the glowing hands has to deal with how both Kenley and Landon (the characters on the cover) are modified. We won't get into details though because that would take the fun out of reading the story ;) Also, we hope you enjoyed looking over Nathan's site. We think he's just too AWESOME for words!
