Causal Enchantment Cover Re-designs and ANOMALY cover REVEAL!

I started talking about a cover re-design for my YA Paranormal fantasy series back in November... and here we are, in May. That should tell you how hard this decision was to make. I love my original covers. They're colorful and unique.

BUT...

I LOVE the new ones that Sarah Hansen of Okay Creations designed for me. We worked together to come up with a theme that fits beautifully with the series. Sarah is brilliant, in case you guys didn't  already know. Give her room to "create" and she will wow you.

So, now I have 3 cover re-designs AND the cover and description for the fourth and final book, ANOMALY, to share with you!

 ANATHEMA:

ASYLUM:

 
ALLEGIANCE 
 

What do you think? I think Sarah did a FANTASTIC job!!

Now... for the cover and description of ANOMALY, coming this fall (no official date set. I could be persuaded with copious amounts of chocolate to set one. But, then I'd have to work all of that chocolate off my a$$ and that would delay my writing... so, it's best that you don't bribe me).




Description:
She was merely a pawn in their game.
And then something happened.
Once the fragile, naïve human, Evangeline has become altogether … different.
A being who holds formidable power, she may be the key to changing the course of fate.
Or she could be the final nail in the world’s coffin.
But Evangeline doesn’t know exactly what she is, what she can do. She knows only that she has to stop an enemy far worse than the Sentinel and the sorceresses—one driven by revenge.
And he’s hunting the man she loves.
As Evangeline fights to keep Caden alive and the human population from eradication, she can’t help but sense the imminent doom.
Find out if fate will prevail in the harrowing conclusion to the Causal Enchantment series.

Release Day! Darkness Kindled by Samantha Young



Happy Release Day, Samantha Young! Her fourth book in her YA series has just released. I first discovered Young's writing with her blockbuster selling book, On Dublin Street (still one of my favs!).




Description:
Ari Johnson wishes adjusting to living with her boyfriend was her only source of excitement and anxiety.
She wishes a lot of things.
But then wishing was what got her here in the first place.

Ari chose to be a Guild Hunter. She wanted to hunt dangerous Jinn and destroy them before they could harm innocent people. But now that Ari is a member of The Guild, she finds herself in the impossible position of hunting her ex-best friend – human-turned-dangerous sorcerer, Charlie Creagh. As Ari struggles to come to terms with her duty, an ancient Jinn and his companion want revenge on her for using the command of the Seal against them; the White King refuses to give up on his quest to resurrect Lilif, and Asmodeus isn’t done toying with her.

When Ari can take no more, rushing to the Sultan Azazil’s side to demand of him the favor he owes her, the events she sets in motion will not only alter everyone’s lives, it will kindle a darkness that will shake the realms to their very core.

ONE TINY LIE Cover Reveal!

I have been staring at this pretty cover on my wall for a month! I'm so happy that we are FINALLY revealing it today. The designers at Atria Books have outdone themselves. They have created the perfect cover for OTL. It has that same soft but haunting quality as TTB but it is sooooo Livie.

So... without further ado, here it is!




Description:
ABOUT ONE TINY LIE:

Livie has always been the stable one of the two Cleary sisters, handling her parents' tragic death and Kacey's self-destructive phase with strength and maturity. But underneath that exterior is a little girl hanging onto the last words her father ever spoke to her. “Make me proud,” he had said. She promised she would...and she’s done her best over the past seven years with every choice, with every word, with every action.

Livie walks into Princeton with a solid plan, and she’s dead set on delivering on it: Rock her classes, set herself up for medical school, and meet a good, respectable guy that she’s going to someday marry. What isn’t part of her plan are Jell-O shots, a lovable, party animal roommate she can’t say ‘no’ to, and Ashton, the gorgeous captain of the men’s rowing team. Definitely him. He’s an arrogant ass who makes Livie’s usually non-existent temper flare and everything she doesn’t want in a guy. Worse, he’s best friends and roommates with Connor, who happens to fits Livie’s criteria perfectly. So why does she keep thinking about Ashton?

As Livie finds herself facing mediocre grades, career aspirations she no longer thinks she can handle, and feelings for Ashton that she shouldn’t have, she’s forced to let go of her last promise to her father and, with it, the only identity that she knows.
 
E-book releases June 11th, 2013. Print version will be available early 2014.
