The Fractured: Elena is free on Amazon:The Fractured: Elena is a novella based on The Blemished. It tells the story of Elena as she realises that helping Mina escape Area 14 may have put her in grave danger. She needs to get out, and a beauty pageant might just be the answer.
But in a world controlled by the Genetic Enhancement Ministry, beauty pageants aren’t quite what you and I would be used to. They are cut-throat and controversial. Their supporters are fanatical, the opposition is violent. Elena is sucked into this world, which remains her only chance to get out of Area 14 and away the suspicious eyes of Mrs Murgatroyd.
To complicate matters, Elena meets the mysterious Jake Bloom, a guy who is not what he seems. Elena finds herself being pulled into an underground world, the kind of world that resides below churches and in basements, as well as getting herself into life-threatening situations.
The Fractured: Elena is shocking, heart-breaking and action packed. Get this novella exclusively from Amazon for FREE throughout 20th and 21st March. Available here: http://www.amazon.com/Fractured-Elena...

The Vanished
“The Compound bustled with action and anticipation, causing my stomach to do a flip. I stopped in my tracks, realising something, something I hadn't thought of before. We were going to war, and people were going to die.”
The Vanished are the forgotten: those who live beyond law or society. Mina fought for freedom. She fought for a better life – a future. But even a free world can decay.
As Mina begins her new life in the Clans she meets people with surprising knowledge about her power, knowledge that could change everything – even her relationship with Daniel. But as she makes new friends, old friends turn against her in shocking betrayal.
Life in the Compound is tough; there are ways and traditions so strange that Mina begins to suspect foul play at the very heart of her new home. Instead of leaving corruption behind in Area 14, Mina is faced with the rotten core of human nature as a Clan warlord threatens to invade the Compound. The Clans are turning against each other and Mina is stuck in the middle.
The Vanished is the second instalment in the Blemished series and follows Mina’s story as she continues to challenge those in power and seek out new dangers. With even more rebellion, romance and betrayal, The Vanished promises to take the reader on a roller-coaster ride of adventure and emotion.
Will freedom fall?

Hi Byron, A good question and I would answer it by suggesting you read a sample. You can download one from Smashwords and then make up your mind :)
https://www.smashwords.com/books/view...
What I will say about the book is that it is a very real scenario, something that is perhaps more likely to happen than some of the premises I've read in the YA dystopian genre. It is dark and deals with adult themes that not only add to the action and adventure but leave you thinking differently about the world you live in.
I hope you decide to read the book, and if you do, enjoy it.
The blog tour for my book starts tomorrow. There is going to be lots of exclusive content -- interviews, excerpts and reviews -- plus a few ebook giveaways. Check out more information on my website http://theblemished.com/news/
Thanks guys :)

Hi Guys, I've put together a short teaser trailer if anyone would like to take a look:

A beautiful world comes at a price...In a world filled with stunning clones Mina Hart is Blemished. Her genes are worthless and that takes away her rights: her right to an Education, her right to a normal life and her right to have a child.
Mina keeps a dangerous secret which she never thought she could share until she meets Angela on her first day at St Jude's School. But their friendship is soon complicated by Angela’s adoptive brother Daniel. Mina finds herself drawn to his mysterious powers and impulsive nature. Then there is the gorgeous clone Sebastian who Mina is forbidden from even speaking to…
The Blemished is a frightening take on a fractured future where the Genetic Enhancement Ministry have taken control of Britain. It will take you on a ride filled with adventure, romance and rebellion.
Add to your shelves. Released in August ;)
