Publication date: October 17th 2022

Genres: Young Adult, Sci-Fi, Dystopian

Seventeen-year-old Mireya is the youngest person on Earth in 2055. Well, one of them. She and her classmates on the military base where she lives are survivors of Zika-Two, a mosquito-borne virus that took out the very youngest and oldest of the world’s population fifteen years earlier and rendered the remaining humans infertile.

Formerly banned research into cloning, genetic engineering, and artificial intelligence is green-lighted by a government desperate to prevent looming human extinction. In fact, it was experimental nanotechnology that saved the lives of Mireya and her friends.

She’s always been told this makes her special. She certainly doesn’t feel special. As hard as she tries, she can never seem to please her indifferent parents, and her periodic memory lapses threaten to sink her already-shameful class rank to dead last. She just wants to be like everyone else, to be normal.

Mireya’s never left the base, never wanted to, and never questioned why she’s been content to stay there her whole life—until she runs into Heath. Actually, he bumped into her with his Gideon Corp delivery van. She’s not hurt, but she is baffled.

Why did the alluring young guy look at her like he knows her? And why did he seem shocked at her very average eye color?

When one-by-one her friends visit the physician and come back acting like strangers, Mireya decides to venture beyond the gates of the base to the nearby city of Atlanta to search for answers. And for Heath.

What she’ll find is the imposing walls surrounding Gideon Corp, the world’s largest corporation, hide many secrets about the cataclysmic global event and perhaps even Mireya herself.

DESIGNED is perfect for readers who loved Hunger Games, Divergent, Delirium, The Wrath & the Dawn, and the Selection.

Blog Tour for The Trial Show by Konstantina P.

Title: The Trial Show

Series: The Resistance Rises

Author: Konstantina P.

Genre: LBGTQ+ Romance, Sci-Fi, Speculative Fiction, Spy/Thriller Elements

Published: March 22, 20222

Forced into the shadows while waging war on an oppressive regime intent on controlling those born with unnatural powers, the Resistance feels like a family. And although all families harbour secrets, theirs are world-shattering.

When Ava Moore foresees the death of her sister Brooklyn and Resistance leader Parker Quinn is forced to appear in a televised trial accused of murder, the web of lies begins to unravel. For not only is Resistance’s second-in-command, Jay Frazer, fighting a guerrilla battle with deadly consequences, he’s also trying to bury his deep-seated love for Parker.

With Parker and Jay temporarily out of the picture, double-agent Trent Reese is left responsible for leading the Resistance. Trent is willing to adapt his moral code to any situation, but what—or whom—does he believe in? As for innocent Ava, who’s plagued by unsettling visions, it’s becoming clear that everyone she loves is in peril. Given, however, that Parker is concealing a mighty gift of his own, one that could change the entire course of the rebellion, the future of the all-seeing state is on the line too.

When the web of secrets is untangled, who will survive?

“Konstantina P. concocts a gripping plot in The Trial Show, her first installment in The Resistance Rises series. If you are looking for a mystery thriller laced with an unraveling tale of secrets, regrets, love, betrayal, pain, and so much more, you will absolutely love this book. Konstantina P. firmly embeds her sense of wit and sarcasm in her intense sentences. Her choice of words gives the story a professional touch. I loved how she used the first-person perspective, switching between the characters, in her exciting cast. This allowed me a wider scope of insight into the enthralling storyline. The author depicts scenes with remarkable emotional depth as well as making them impressively vivid. Konstantina P. wonderfully develops her characters, harnessing the power of introspection. Parker makes a lot of tough choices to protect his followers, but do they see things his way? I loved the book and I can't wait to get my hands on the second installment." - 5-star review by Readers' Favorite

Promo Tour for Hellcat by Rebekah Turner

Title: Hellcat

Author: Rebekah Turner

Genre: Sci-Fi

Release Date: February 15, 2020

In the dusty Mars city of Cydonia, only one path is open to women: get married and breed. As long as you're genetically approved, of course. Eighteen-year-old Kayo Rooper might be approved, but she has no interest in finding a husband. Her destiny is to live a life of adventure on Earth, birthplace of her long lost mother.

Joined by a friend with a shady moral compass, a tech genius with a tragic past, and the roof-rat-turned Sentinel who both threatens and attracts her, Kayo earns passage money to Earth riding her Hellcat cycle as an illegal courier. But her plans of escape are threatened when a job puts her in the middle of a plot to destroy the fragile alliance between Earth and Mars. Now, the very home Kayo wants to escape is the one she would give anything to save.

A pack of official couriers on aero-cycles whipped by our car, their sleek fusion-fueled cycles whining softly. The couriers leaned low over their polished silver engines, dressed in dark-navy uniforms. My eyes followed them as they split off in opposite directions, weaving easily around the traffic, bobbing up and down, in and out. A trickle of jealousy slid through me. No way was I going to live a life stuck behind a desk, surrounded by clacking calculators, ticking engines, slide rules and dusty engineering files, adding up numbers all day long. My life was going to be bigger than that.
