Today my spotlight author is Alicia Michaels.
Bio:
Ever since she first read books like Chronicles of
Narnia or Goosebumps, Alicia has been a lover of mind-bending fiction. Wherever
imagination takes her, she is more than happy to call that place her home. The
mother of two and wife to an Army sergeant loves chocolate, coffee, and of
course good books. When not writing, you can usually find her with her nose in
a book, shopping for shoes and fabulous jewelry, or spending time with her
loving family.

A twisted take on the tale of Rapunzel. A prequel
to the Lost Kingdom of Fallada series. Novella length.
Blurb:
In the year 1845, before the mystical land of
Fallada was separated from the realm of men forever, the two worlds coexisted
in harmony. Man could mingle freely in the world of the Elves and Faeries at
will and peace reigned. In the hills of Shropshire, England, just miles from
the gate separating the village of Ludlow from the world of mystical creatures,
farmer’s daughter Zara Wells longs for answers. It is not only the golden hair
that trail feet behind her, or the strange hue of her violet eyes that
separates her from the other girls her village. There is something inside of
her, something touched by magic that longs to know more about what lies on the
other side of the gate. In Fallada, darkness has begun to spread. As the
youngest and most beautiful girls of her village begin to disappear, Zara comes
closer to discovering the true circumstances surrounding her birth. Little does
she know, that the closer she comes to the answers she so desperately desires,
the closer she will come to being ensnared in the dark queen’s web of growing
treachery.

The Bionics (Bionics #1)
All I ever wanted was to be a normal girl. I had dreams of joining the ranks of the Military Police and making my family proud. But the nuclear war that laid waste to our country destroyed any hope I had of being normal ever again. They took everything away from me, including my humanity. I am now half-human, half-machine, part of the never-ending freak show that is the Restoration Project.
They hate what they created and they fear us for being powerful.
And so they hunt us, destroying our lives so that they can bury what they built. What they don’t know is this: there is a Resistance out there and The Bionics aren’t going down without a fight

Titanium (Bionics #2)
We stand on the brink of a double rescue mission, a plan so foolhardy that even our bravest men are quaking inside with fear. Storm the capitol, free the prisoners, don’t get killed. It seems like a suicide mission, but not a single one of us has anything to lose.
In my past life, I was a scoundrel; a drug peddling street thug who cared nothing for anyone because I had no one to care for me. The nuclear blasts of 4006 reminded me of the value of life, and a girl with the saddest eyes I’ve ever gazed into gave me someone to care for. Now, as we embark on our most dangerous enterprise, I can only hope that we can make it out alive and that those we have lost can be recovered.
Foolishness … fear … hope … These are the elements that threw our revolution into motion. As the momentum of the Resistance continues to build, we can only pray that hope continues grow larger our fear
