UNKNOWN BY WENDY HIGGINS!

HEY!

The amazing Wendy Higgins has a new book coming out and gosh darn I'm super excited for this! I loved her Sweet Evil series about Demons and her epic retelling in The Great Hunt, BUT now we be getting some crazy sci-fi! And I get to be a part of the cover reveal for this new novel Unknown

But first a little about Wendy Higgins, one of my auto buy authors!

Author Bio:
Wendy Higgins is the USA Today and NYT bestselling author of the Sweet Evil series from HarperTeen, the high fantasy duology The Great Hunt, and her independently published Irish fantasy, See Me. She is a former high school English teacher who now writes full time, and lives on the Eastern Shore of Virginia with her veterinarian husband, daughter, son, and doggie Rue. 
Wendy earned a bachelor's in Creative Writing from George Mason University and a master's in Curriculum and Instruction from Radford University. 


UNKNOWN (that is the actual name haha I got confused when I first saw it too!)

The one really interesting thing is she is moving from Young Adult to New Adult there is a big blog post about her decision to do this plus some more interesting points about how she got to this series. She gave a lot of hints and bits about her new series from her blog post, check out the full post on her blog here:

Here's what I can tell you so far about the Unknown series:

~It will be at least 3-4 books in total
~It will follow at least 2 female main characters. Book 1 will focus on Amber Tate. Book 2 will introduce us to Jasmine, and will go back-and-forth between Amber and Jasmine's viewpoints for the remainder of the series, both told in first person point of view, both with their own romance threads.
~There will be no male POV in these books.
~The first book will be mostly backstory and introductions, along with the world's downfall. You will be left with more questions than answers in book 1. I love you. Don't hate me.
~I am hoping to get the first book written this winter/spring, edited in early summer, and published in August. That is if all goes well and there are no set backs. But I will not put out a rushed product, so if I don't feel it's ready by August I will adjust the publication date.

~And lastly, the incredibly talented graphic artist Jennifer Munswami is working on a cover! *flails* 

And now for the Cover and Synopsis!
Don't forget to add it to your Goodreads list!

"Amber Tate believes the worst thing she’ll suffer in life is dealing with the unrequited love she feels for her brother’s best friend, Rylen Fite. She also believes war is something unfortunate that happens places far, far away from her rural Nevada town. She’s wrong on both counts. 

When an unknown organization meticulously bombs major cities in the United States and across the globe, a trickle-down effect spreads to remaining towns at an alarming speed—everything from food and water sources to technological communications are compromised. Without leadership, the nation is split between paralysis and panic, but Amber isn’t one to hide or watch helplessly. She’s determined to put her nursing skills to use, despite the danger, even if it means working alongside the man she can never have. 

In this first installment of NY Times bestselling author, Wendy Higgins’s debut New Adult series, a frighteningly realistic apocalyptic America is brought to life, entwined with searing romantic tension that will leave you eager for more."

Check out Wendy's Twitter, Facebook, Instagram and Website where you can find out all about her other Young Adult series and her, she is great with fans of her books plus she will like always reply. One of the things I really like about her is that, she is such a cool person!
