LUCID’s official summary!

BRIGHTEST KIND OF DARKNESS: LUCID

Once Nara combines her prophetic ability with Ethan’s power to outsmart Fate at his own deadly cat-and-mouse game, she’s more determined than ever to help Ethan learn the meaning behind the raven sword tattoo that suddenly appeared on his back after their confrontation with Fate.

During her quest to uncover the tattoo’s secrets, Nara enlists the help of some new friends and discovers her own surprising connection to Ethan.

While Nara digs deeper into the mystery, her desire for answers leads her down a dangerous path full of powerful and ruthless enemies. Swept into an age-old battle, Nara quickly learns that keeping one’s enemies close can be a necessary evil, making an intangible enemy she can control far more preferable to the human enemies she can’t.

COMING: JULY 9th, 2012!

BKoD in Print on sale at B&N!

Hi everyone!

I wanted to give you a heads up that BKoD is now available in PRINT at B&N and all the European Amazon outlets. Currently B&N has it on SALE for ($8.99), which is a phenomenal price. It won’t stay like that forever, so jump on that if you’ve considered buying the print version. As an FYI, I had to increase the print book price so that I could put BKoD in extended distribution (ie, make it available at B&N, Book Depository, etc). It could take up to six weeks before you see it everywhere.

Also, I just did an interview with Mickey at I’m a Book Shark where, among other questions, I answer this question: Who do you think would make a great audiobook narrator for BRIGHTEST KIND OF DARKNESS? Hope you’ll check it out! :)

RECENT BKoD REVIEW

An interview and review of BKoD with Jean the Book Nerd! “Excitement, suspense, and mystery encircle this book. The storyline is unique and interesting. A truly creative plot that keeps the reader engaged and fascinated. Michelle’s writing method flows like liquid. She avoids confusing time frame skips which helped this remarkable story’s pace to not speed up, and more importantly, does not slow down. The mystery that envelops the story is gripping. It offered something new and exciting on each page which draws the reader in more and more.” Click here to read the entire review at Jean Book Nerd.

Ethan Harris from BRIGHTEST KIND OF DARKNESS

A while back I was asked on Twitter if I had an idea how I perceived Ethan from BRIGHTEST KIND OF DARKNESS. I’m usually a little leery about posting pictures that I feel represent characters in my books (mainly because I like readers to form how they think a character looks in their own minds), but since Valerie at Stuck in Books will be featuring Ethan on her blog this Monday, I thought it would be fun to give an “idea” what I think he might look like.

I’ll be honest, no ONE person really jumped out at me as Ethan, but a couple were close. So without further ado, here are few pictures that I feel represent Ethan.

Imagine the sharpness and intensity of Alex Pettyfer’s features….

Jordan Nichols’ dark good looks. Then take him even darker. :)

That’s how I picture Ethan.

If you’re reading this first, don’t forget to hop over to Stuck in Books, where Valerie pops in on Ethan for an impromptu interview.  Finally, a glimpse of things from Ethan’s point-of-view.
