Cover Reveal: Salvation by Skyla Madi

SALVATION by Skyla Madi

Guardian Angel #3

Release Date: April 2013

From Limitless Publishing

Cover Reveal Organized by: YA Bound

In the aftermath of a battle that forced Ruby to flee the safety of the guardian angels, she settles into a small town, hoping to blend in and forget about the ones she loved. It isn’t until Hunter stumbles across her working in a bar and a well-timed email from Ivan Aleksandrov that she realised she could go back to Sage Sanctum—for a few days, at least.

Out for revenge, Lucian will stop at nothing until he has Ruby for himself, but he isn’t the only one that needs her. The council, a group of gods/goddesses have a mysterious hand in Ruby’s return to Sage Sanctum and Mr Aleksandrov is eager to find out what it is.

Destroying Lucian is the least of her worries when Ruby comes face to face with Eli De Luca, the love of her life. It seems her departure has affected him more than she thought it would, but his frustration with her isn’t strong enough to hide the electricity that crackles relentlessly between them.

Determined to end her very real nightmare once and for all, Ruby fights the biggest battle of her life, one that affects not only her, but everyone involved.

Cover Reveal: Destiny Gift by Juliana Haygert

DESTINY GIFT by Juliana Haygert

Everlast, #1

Expected Publication: April 9th, 2013

 New Adult Paranormal Romance

 Cover designed by Okay Creations

Thirty years in the future, a sinister New York City exists in permanent darkness.

A student at the secured NYU, nineteen-year-old Nadine has visions of Victor Gianni, an imaginary guy she has real feelings for. Afraid of being truly insane, she explains the visions away as simple daydreams, but she can no longer deny them when she bumps into Victor in real life. But this Victor doesn’t know her, and turns her away. After the encounter, Nadine’s visions change to those of eerie fates, gods she’s never heard of, demons with sharp claws they are not too timid to use … and instructions.

To discover if she’s losing her mind, Nadine follows the vague directions—with the real, rude and reluctant Victor—leading to a man who knows it all: Nadine can restore an ancient creed by unveiling the clues on her visions, and bring sunlight and peace to the world again. But that’s only if the demons and the other evil forces behind the darkness don’t stop her first.

Cover/Blurb Reveal: Something Darker by S.A. Price (Giveaway)

Expected publication: December 18th 2012

SOMETHING DARKER (book one of the Inferii Dii)

The one thing Syrus Alcot, the God of Death Osiris in the Egyptian Pantheon, wants in all the worlds is the woman he loved and lost returned to him. When he gave up his powers, and freedom for a life of service he was promised her return. That was over one thousand years ago. A member of a team of dark gods charged with keeping humanity safe, he leads a loveless existence in New York City, searching for the one thing that could bring his wife back to him, a lapis scarab that was lost to him ages before.

Gwen Stapleton, a mild mannered librarian, is unaware that she holds the key to not only Syrus’ happiness, but her own. Seemingly stuck in a hopeless relationship with a man she doesn’t love, she has no idea that a chance meeting in Alphabet City will start a landslide to her heart’s content. Because Gwen is the keeper of the scarab, and is everything Syrus has ever wanted… and he's not the only one.

An Ancient evil is waking, and its servants will stop at nothing to see it seize its rightful place as the new pantheon of earth. And in order for Syrus and his team to save the world, Gwen is going to have to accept him, and show that love does make all the difference.

FBF Book Spotlight: Underworld by Meg Cabot

Underworld (Abandon Trilogy #2)
by Meg Cabot
Published May 8th 2012 by Point

Seventeen-year-old Pierce Oliviera isn’t dead.

Not this time.

But she is being held against her will in the dim, twilit world between heaven and hell, where spirits of the deceased wait before embarking upon their final journey.

Her captor, John Hayden, claims it’s for her own safety. Because not all the departed are dear. Some are so unhappy with where they ended up after leaving the Underworld, they’ve come back as Furies, intent on vengeance…on the one who sent them there and on the one whom he loves.

But while Pierce might be safe from the Furies in the Underworld, far worse dangers could be lurking for her there…and they might have more to do with its ruler than with his enemies.

And unless Pierce is careful, this time there’ll be no escape.

5 Signed Copies will be given away on Friday, May 18, 2012!

This week's eagerly anticipated release is:

Black-Hearted Betrayal (Shades of Fury #3)
by Kasey MacKenzie
Expected publication: June 26th 2012 by Ace

Cover Ogle (#13): The Goddess Legacy by Aimee Carter

Expected publication: July 31st 2012 by Harlequin Teen

via Harlequin TEEN:

Available in August, THE GODDESS LEGACY features five original novellas about Calliope, Ava, Persephone, James and Henry. We can't wait to share more about the world of The Goddess Test!

I'm really excited about these novellas that are to be featured in The Goddess Legacy. I can't wait to see what their about and what happens. It should be interesting. And I love the cover. All the covers in the Goddess Test series are beautiful, but I think this one might be my favorite.

What do you think?

Waiting on Wednesday (#14): Enraptured by Elisabeth Naughton

Waiting On Wednesday is a weekly event, hosted at Breaking The Spine, that spotlights upcoming releases that we're eagerly anticipating.

This week's eagerly anticipated release is:

Enraptured (Eternal Guardians #4)
by Elisabeth Naughton
Expected publication: April 3rd 2012 by Sourcebooks Casablanca

Orpheus may have joined the elite protectors known as Eternal Guardians, but they've never trusted whose side he's really on. And the half-daemon couldn't care less. Orpheus has only one goal: rescue his brother from the Underworld. He's not expecting a woman to get in the way, especially not one sent by Zeus to seduce, entrap, and then ultimately destroy him. A woman who will dredge up a past he doesn't remember, a love that once condemned him, and a dark and deadly secret as old as the Eternal Guardians themselves.

I love the Eternal Guardians series and with this book it looks like things are really going to heat up!

Waiting on Wednesday (#12): Goddess Interrupted by Aimee Carter

Waiting On Wednesday is a weekly event, hosted at Breaking The Spine, that spotlights upcoming releases that we're eagerly anticipating.

This week's eagerly anticipated release is:

Goddess Interrupted (Goddess Test #2)
by Aimee Carter
Expected publication: March 27th 2012 by HarlequinTeen

Kate Winters has won immortality.

But if she wants a life in the Underworld with Henry, she’ll have to fight for it.

Becoming immortal wasn’t supposed to be the easy part. Though Kate is about to be crowned Queen of the Underworld, she’s as isolated as ever. And despite her growing love for Henry, ruler of the Underworld, he’s becoming ever more distant and secretive. Then, in the midst of Kate’s coronation, Henry is abducted by the only being powerful enough to kill him: the King of the Titans.

As the other gods prepare for a war that could end them all, it is up to Kate to save Henry from the depths of Tartarus. But in order to navigate the endless caverns of the Underworld, Kate must enlist the help of the one person who is the greatest threat to her future.

Henry’s first wife, Persephone.

I know that everyone's already made a big fuss over this release, but seeing as today is my last chance to spotlight a March release, I had to choose this one. I'm really excited to see what happens when Kate meets Persephone, and what happens with the King of the Titans. It kind of sucks for Kate, since she already won the right to be in the Underworld with Henry and now she's got to fight to keep her place.

Cover Ogle (#11): South of Surrender by Laura Kaye

Expected publication: December 11th 2012 by Entangled Publisher

Here's the summary:

She’s the only one who can see through his golden boy façade to the broken god within…

Chrysander Notos, Supreme God of the South Wind and Summer, is on a mission: save Eurus from his death sentence and prove his troubled brother can be redeemed. But Eurus fights back, triggering vicious summer storms that threaten the mortal realm, dangerously drain Chrys, and earn the ire of the Olympic gods who ordered Eurus dead.

Laney Summerlyn refuses to give up her grandfather’s horse farm, despite her deteriorating vision. More than ever, she needs the organized routine of her life at Summerlyn Stables, until a ferocious storm brings an impossible—and beautiful—creature crashing down from the heavens.

Injured while fighting Eurus, Chrys finds himself at the mercy of a mortal woman whose compassion and acceptance he can’t resist. As they surrender to the passion flaring between them, immortal enemies close in, forcing Chrys to choose between his brother and the only woman who’s ever loved the real him.

This cover is really awesome! The lightning and fire in the background hint at danger, the black horse symbolizes power, and then there's the hot guy on the cover. There's more color to this cover than the covers to the previous book in the Hearts of Anemoi series. I think this is my favorite so far.
