Cover Art Reveals--Some Girls Bite & White Hot Kiss

So here are some cover reveals! The first is for the Mass Market release of Some Girls Bite, compared to the older one on the right:

Okay, I like the new one, not saying anything is wrong with it, but I have to say, I like the old one better. The old one shows Merit as we meet her. True she turns vampire, but she was a jeans wearing, tank-top layered kind of chick. She wasn't the kickass leather-wearing, sword-wielding Sentinel that we come to know and love. Her fashion choices definitely change over the covers and it's not til book 3 that the leather breaks out, which I think was an appropriate time. The new cover for book 1 in the series just seems to be jumping the gun a bit in character development. But it's still pretty damn cool!

The new cover releases March 4, 2014

And if I am understanding Chloe's blog post right, this cover will also be available in Trade as well as Mass.


And next, Jennifer showed off the cover to White Hot Kiss!

One kiss could be the last.

Seventeen-year-old Layla just wants to be normal. But with a kiss that kills anything with a soul, she's anything but normal. Half demon, half gargoyle, Layla has abilities no one else possesses.

Raised among the Wardens—a race of gargoyles tasked with hunting demons and keeping humanity safe—Layla tries to fit in, but that means hiding her own dark side from those she loves the most. Especially Zayne, the swoon-worthy, incredibly gorgeous and completely off-limits Warden she's crushed on since forever.

Then she meets Roth—a tattooed, sinfully hot demon who claims to know all her secrets. Layla knows she should stay away, but she's not sure she wants to—especially when that whole no-kissing thing isn't an issue, considering Roth has no soul.

But when Layla discovers she's the reason for the violent demon uprising, trusting Roth could not only ruin her chances with Zayne…it could brand her a traitor to her family. Worse yet, it could become a one-way ticket to the end of the world.


Now I like it! It's super hot and definitely showing off the "kiss" part very well! Jennifer has made some sort of comment that there's something about the cover, but she didn't really say what it was. I don't think it was a negative remark, but you know how hard it is to read context in writing!

My issue, slight as it may be is, wasn't this supposed to be a YA novel? To me the cover looks more fitting on an adult read or even NA. Double checking the description gave me a big fat yes, since the heroine is 17. I like it regardless, but just wondering if it's a little too risque for a YA read?

What do you guys think? 

White Hot Kiss releases sometime...really cannot figure it out! Seeing wayyy too many different release dates ranging from December 2013 to January 2014 to March 2014. You already know what my vote would be!

  2. I love the new cover but it does look like the new Merit. I don't think she's that Merit until book 3 or 4. This would be a cool cover for a new book, which I though it was when I first saw it.

    Eh, nothing special about the cover of White Hot Kiss but the book sounds good!
