{Blog Tour} TRUE COLORS by Melissa Pearl -- with Guest Post, Excerpt, and giveaway!







Cover Designer by Kate Strawbridge of Dwell Design & Press
Hosted by Mrs Potter's Book Publicity Services

Caitlyn Davis always cruised through life, not being the type to ruffle feathers or involve herself in high school drama…until a chance encounter with a strange, homeless man changes everything.

Suddenly, Caitlyn has the ability to see behind people’s masks. She discovers that her life isn’t as simple as she imagined and her high school is filled with secrets…some very sinister ones.

Unable to ignore her new gift, Caitlyn embarks on a mission to learn why one of her friends now appears terrified, but masks her fear behind a bright, smiling veneer. Will Caitlyn’s new ability lead her into hot water? Or is her new found vision a blessing that will expose her friends’ true colors?

Her quest will lead Caitlyn to lose friends, stand up for those in need, and even find love.

At Palisades High School every face tells a story…

Luscious Love
 
What's a good book without a divine love interest?
I usually try and make my male leads good looking, but not over the top. I like them to be human and real. I get so sick of reading books about these stunningly beautiful people. I prefer a touch of reality.
In saying all that, with Eric, I couldn't help myself. To me he is just beautiful. When I was designing the cast of True Colors, he stuck out to me as this super hot surfer. The kind that makes your jaw go slack. The one you can't take your eyes off whenever he's around. It was so cool to write such a gorgeous character and I love the way Caitlyn swoons whenever she's near him.
Now he's still flawed. He has a slightly fiery personality when he's pushed and he has a few trust issues that he's going to have to work through, but when it comes to looks, Eric Shore is perfection and I have to say, it was SO much fun to write such a sexy character.

“Hey Caity.” Eric’s sweet voice made my insides flutter.
He was standing on his lawn, leaning his surfboard against the fence. He finished drying off his hair and spread the towel out to dry.
I tried not to stumble as I descended the stairs towards him. He propped his arms on the fence as he waited for me. His bare skin smelt fresh and salty. I wondered if he knew how much his shirtless form undid a girl. I’m sure he’d wear more clothes if he knew how much it undid me anyway.
Trying not to gaze longingly at his chiseled frame was hard work. I licked my bottom lip and forced myself to look into his eyes. They were glimmering with a small smile.
