You guys! You guys! You guys! If you can't tell, I am so freaking excited. Because I can finally share details with you about my new book! Really good details like the title, release date, a short synopsis, and the COVER!!!! I was going to fill this post with a bunch of Supernatural GIFs to show my extreme enthusiasm, but figured I should probably just get to the goods--as in, the cover--because we all know that's what you're here for. Oh, and the ARC giveaway. (I'll get to that in a minute.) So without any more ado, I present to you the STUNNING (if I do say so myself--which I am--heheh) cover of . . .
The Shadow Prince
(Book One of the Into The Dark series) . . .
Coming March 11, 2014 . . . .
Haden Lord, the disgraced prince of the Underrealm, has been
sent to the mortal world to entice a girl into returning with him to the land
of the dead. Posing as a student at Olympus Hills High—a haven for children of
the rich and famous—Haden must single out the one girl rumored to be able to restore
immortality to his race.
Daphne Raines has dreams much bigger than her tiny southern
Utah town, so when her rock star dad suddenly reappears, offering her full
tuition to Olympus Hills High’s prestigious music program, she sees an
opportunity to catch the break she needs to make it as a singer. But upon
moving into her estranged father’s mansion in California, and attending her
glamorous new school, Daphne soon realizes she isn’t the only student in
Olympus who doesn’t quite belong.
Haden and Daphne—destined for each other—know nothing of the
true stakes their fated courtship entails.
As war between the gods brews, the teenagers’ lives collide. But Daphne
won’t be wooed easily and when it seems their prophesied link could happen,
Haden realizes something he never intended—he’s fallen in love. Now to save
themselves, Haden and Daphne must rewrite their destinies. But as their destinies change, so do the fates of both their worlds.
A pulsating romance of epic proportions, Bree Despain’s The Shadow Prince will leave her fans
breathless for the next book in the Into The Dark series.
[Please note: this is not the official finalized summary of the book.]
I can't even begin to tell you how excited I am about
The Shadow Prince! And the cover literally made me scream with joy when I saw it. Many thanks to the crew at Egmont USA for designing something so incredibly amazing to encapsulate how I feel about this book. It's a story I've been mulling over for several years and it's kind of a combination of all of things I love from Greek mythology to
Avatar: The last Airbender,
Supernatural to
Buffy the Vampire Slayer, hot princes, and indie music. And I just have to say that Haden is by far my most favoritest (yes, that's a word) character I have ever written.
The Shadow Prince will be released on March 11, 2014 but it is already available for pre-order on Amazon
HERE. And I am sure it will be up soon on B&N and IndieBound soon.
But a few of you won't have to wait that long!
