Divided

A new heart, a new life, a new love...and a mystery she can't explain. Can she unite her divided heart?

Mishca Richardson’s life is at an all-time high after her heart transplant. With new boyfriend, Ryder, she has the perfect summer romance. Even the nightmares plaguing her sleep since her operation can’t dull her new dream world.

Yet, life starts to unravel when Mishca develops superhuman abilities. She does her best to hide them so as not to end up a laboratory experiment, but she can’t ignore the strange instant attraction she experiences when she meets her university professor, Colin Read.

Torn between love and obsession, Mishca must unite her divided heart and decide between the two men. But when the truth about her weird powers comes to light, she’ll have a lot more to worry about than romance.

"Authors like Sharon M. Johnston keep the genre from getting stale by taking a creative bent and exploring overlapping elements." - LIBRARY JOURNAL

AUTHOR INTERVIEW

Q: Tell us about your writing style.

A: My writing is inspired by the “What if” scenario. What if there were people who delivered Karma? This is a novel in progress expanding on a short story I wrote that was runner up in the Australian Literary Review’s YA short story competition. What if my dad had been diagnosed with terminal cancer when I was at high school? A story I’m currently writing. What if males went extinct? A story I’m currently querying. What if Puck was in love with Titania? A short story Shakespeare retelling I wrote for an anthology coming out in June.

I love daydreaming and letting my mind take me to these weird and wonderful places and when the idea sticks, I write it.

Q: What do you write?

A: I write a lot of weird stuff that would fall under the Speculative Fiction umbrella and often mash two genres together. Science Fiction plays a strong role in my stories, probably because I like making stuff up and creating new things. I do also write contemporaries, but they usually come from something very difficult I have faced in my life.

Q: Why should readers pick up your books?

A: Divided is a story that proves great Young Adult or New Adult stories don’t have to be straight contemporary. Mischa’s story takes you on a journey of mystery and intrigue, with a twist at the end that you just won’t see coming. It’s perfect for readers who want to love Sci Fi with more Fi than Sci, especially when it has a healthy dose of romance. And Divided has one of the best book boyfriends ever with Ryder.
