NEXIS Cover Reveal sign-ups!

As you may all know, my YA sci-fi book NEXIS sold last summer to Entangled Teen.  The exciting part about this book is that, even though Entangled is a digital publisher and the contract was for digital publication, the mother house for Entangled, Macmillan, has agreed to release NEXIS in print.

I'm still waiting to hear back about whether NEXIS will be hardcover or trade paperback, but it's looking like the release date for the book will be November/December 2015.  That said, we're moving right along and starting the cover reveal!  I'm so excited about my cover as it's so very lovely.  Also, I've just been sent the blurb for the back of the book!  *swoon*

I've been working long and hard on this book and I'd love it if you ladies and gentlemen would help spread the word by getting involved.

Entangled is doing a cover reveal for NEXIS with YA Bound Book Tours on February 24.  If you're interested in participating in the cover reveal, you can sign up here.

Nexis:
In the domed city of Evanescence, appearance is everything. Yet Ella Drexel is a Natural Born, living amongst genetically-altered Aristocrats who permanently “modify” themselves to be beautiful and flawless to the point of excess. Unlike Ella, who resents living in the skin she was born with. All she ever wanted was to be like everyone else—augmented, sparkling, and perfect. Then...the crash. Devastated by her father's death and struggling with her new physical limitations, Ella discovers she is now little more than a prisoner. Her only escape is to lose herself in Nexis, the hugely popular virtual reality game her father created. But Nexis isn't quite the game everyone thinks it is. And it's been waiting for Ella.
