First, I gotta say I love this cover. Isn’t it so supercool?

Nick’s life as a CIA spy should be fulfilling, but it has only given him unhappiness–a wife who committed suicide and two daughters who resent everything he has become. Now, stuck in the Amazon on the last mission of his career, he must track down Matheus Ferreira, a drug lord and terrorist the U.S. has tried to bring down for years. If he succeeds, he’ll have the chance to start his life over again.

And so this exciting, action-packed story begins. I enjoyed Michelle’s gritty characters–well-drawn and believable. The interweaving of the Monarch butterfly symbolism is skillful and subtle. If you like thrillers with heart, you’ll want to read MONARCH.

I also recommend Michelle’s blog, The Innocent Flower. She has great info there on writing and also her publishing journey, both indie and traditional.
