Cover Envy (26): Everneath, Wings of the Wicked and Goddess Interrupted

It's that time of week again! I'm showing another couple of covers that make me green with envy and stuck sitting on my hands until the novels they cover come out.


I hope you enjoy!


Everneath by Brodi Ashton- Everything about this cover is drop dead gorgeous. The red fading into grey, the pale skin tone. I just wish the background color was a little more popping and her lips were as shocking red as her dress. These are minor things though. Her dress curling into smoke is gorgeous.


Goodreads:

Last spring, Nikki Beckett vanished, sucked into an underworld known as the Everneath, where immortals Feed on the emotions of despairing humans. Now she's returned- to her old life, her family, her friends- before being banished back to the underworld... this time forever. 


She has six months before the Everneath comes to claim her, six months for good-byes she can't find the words for, six months to find redemption, if it exists. 
Nikki longs to spend these months reconnecting with her boyfriend, Jack, the one person she loves more than anything. But there's a problem: Cole, the smoldering immortal who first enticed her to the Everneath, has followed Nikki to the mortal world. And he'll do whatever it takes to bring her back- this time as his queen. 
Everneath is out January 2012 by HarperCollins. 

Wings of the Wicked (Angelfire #2) by Courtney Allison Moulton- I really like the contrast between this and the last one. Ellie looks just as fierce as the previous cover and I really like the relaxed pose. I also like that the model is slightly off center because it balances the moon on the book.


Goodreads:

Life as the Preliator is harder than Ellie ever imagined
Balancing real life with the responsibility of being Heaven’s warrior is a challenge for Ellie. Her relationship with Will has become all business, though they both long for each other. And now that the secret of who she really is has come out, so have Hell’s strongest reapers. Grown bold and more vicious, the demonic threaten her in the light of day and stalk her in the night. 
She’s been warned
Cadan, a demonic reaper, comes to her with information about Bastian’s new plan to destroy Ellie’s soul and use an ancient relic to wake all the souls of the damned and unleash them upon humanity. As she fights to stay ahead of Bastian’s schemes , the revelations about those closest to her awaken a dark power within Ellie that threatens to destroy everything—including herself. 
She’ll be betrayed. 
Treachery comes even from those whom she loves, and Ellie is broken by the deaths of those who stood beside her in this Heavenly war. Still, she must find a way to save the world, herself, and her love for Will. If she fails, there will be hell to pay.
Wings of the Wicked will be out 2012 from HarperCollins.

Goddess Interrupted (The Goddess Test #2) by Aimee Carter- I like that this one is really different than the first. In this one, the model looks like she was caught off guard and even though I generally hate the sting on forehead look, I think it really works for this cover. Plus, I really like that they carried the Greek pattern from the last novel to this one on the right hand side.


Goodreads:

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.
Goddess Interrupted is out April 2012 from Harlequin Teen. 


So these are my cover choices for the week. What do you think of them?

Thinking of writing something below? Well, that's why you are awesome! I always love feedback!

This blog is an award free zone. With the demand of a full time job, blogging time is becoming much more precious and I just don't have the time to meet the demands of awards. Thanks so much for thinking of me anyway!
