My Thoughts:
This is a spinoff new YA series based on her Vampire Huntress series. The blood dipped wing is definitely a popular image (Hush, Hush).

Book Description:
While they are secreted away in the Temt Tchaas Academy, (aka Neteru Academy), these students must learn to fight evil as well as learn to resist the temptation of fighting with each other. Although these young people have super powers, they still struggle with the same dramas and insecurities like any other high school student – and just because their parents may be superhuman doesn’t mean their parents are perfect. Far from it. That only makes life more confusing, as peer pressure, budding romances, decisions about whether or not to snitch, or whether or not to use one’s supernatural gifts for personal gain must be sorted out. In this coming of age story, Sarah Rivera and her twin brother, Alejandro, must figure out when to use their wings or fangs, how to get along with their compound siblings, how to fit in with others in a huge new school, and perhaps most importantly, how to pick their battles to always fight for what is right.

Title: Haunted Honeymoon (Casa Dracula #4)

Author Comments:
Hurrah! I just got my cover art for Haunted Honeymoon (Casa Dracula Book 4) and I wanted to share it with all of you first. Last week when I was blogging about blue/black cover schemes, I secretly wished for one, but didn't think I would get one since my previous covers have been red/black/white. So I was thrilled when my editor sent this to me.
I also love the artwork. Although the model doesn't look the way I've pictured Milagro, my heroine, she definitely has Milagro's playful sensuality. Yes, this is a girl who will find fabulous men, trouble, and parties. This is easily my favorite cover to date. (Although I'm still very fond of the fun and sexy Russian covers.)
My Thoughts:
I agree with Marta, a big thumbs up on the blue/black cover scheme, but I also agree that the model doesn’t really look like the Hispanic Milangro. Still, this is easily my favorite cover of the series.

My Thoughts:
Lovely! The color scheme is both strong and soft. And the story sounds even better,

Book Description:
When seventeen-year-old Ellie starts seeing reapers--monstrous creatures who devour humans and send their souls to Hell--she finds herself on the front lines of a supernatural war between Seraphim and the Fallen and faced with the possible destruction of her soul.
A mysterious boy named Will reveals she is the reincarnation of an ancient warrior, the only one capable of fighting the reapers, and he is an immortal sworn to protect her in battle. Now that Ellie's powers have been awakened, a powerful reaper called Bastian has come forward to challenge her. He has employed a fierce assassin to eliminate her--an assassin who has already killed her once.
While balancing her dwindling social life and reaper-hunting extracurriculars, she and Will discover Bastian is searching for a dormant creature believed to be a true soul reaper. Bastian plans to use this weapon to destroy Ellie's soul forever, ending her rebirth cycle. Now, she must face an army of Bastian's most frightening reapers, prevent the soul reaper from consuming her soul, and uncover the secrets of her past lives--including truths that may be too frightening to remember.
