The Good, the Bad and the Are-You-Kidding-Me?

This week we have a special topic to talk about. Covers that are just plain wrong, literally. We decided to make this post after seeing a tweet from Nicole Peeler about her new German cover. She pointed out the wrongness of it and we couldn’t resist. We noticed this in the past and thought we will show you our top 3 of just stupidly wrong covers.

Susi: Okay this cover is wrong in so many ways. I don’t know why German publishers does this so often but it’s rather common here to show something totally wrong and deceiving on the cover. So here we have a book about Selkies showing a mermaid. O_O And not even pretty one for that. I don’t really like blueish covers and this …

Tyger Tyger by Kersten Hamilton

Teagan Wylltson’s best friend, Abby, dreams that horrifying creatures–goblins, shape-shifters, and beings of unearthly beauty but terrible cruelty–are hunting Teagan. Abby is always coming up with crazy stuff, though, so Teagan isn’t worried. Her life isn’t in danger. In fact, it’s perfect. She’s on track for a college scholarship. She has a great job. She’s focused on school, work, and her future. No boys, no heartaches, no problems.

Until Finn Mac Cumhaill arrives. Finn’s a bit on the unearthly beautiful side himself. He has a killer accent and a knee-weakening smile.

Finn knows a thing or two about fighting. Which is a …

What kind of woman can charm a charming rake? . . .by Lila DiPasqua
I’ve written a historical romance anthology for Berkley. It’s rather scandalous. My new release, (second in my Fiery Tales series), THE PRINCESS IN HIS BED, is a Fiery Tales collection – steamy retellings of three classic fairy tales in the one book. I love it when historical heroes are sinfully seductive bad …

My Wishlist- My favorite Couples

Hello and welcome to another edition of My Wishlist.

This week I am going to be discussing my favorite fictional heroes/heroines from some of my all time favorite book series.

Excerpt one of the books list below, these are on my TBB Wish list this week.

I can still remember the first time I fell in love… with my fictional hero and his leading lady..

Vane and Bride from Dark Hunter series novel, Night Play..

I still get the chills every time I read their story.  Vane was the one very first heroes that I fell head over heels for. In fact it was the first time I ever read a book from Sherrilyn Kenyon… From then one I became hooked on this series.
If it wasn’t for the way Sherrilyn created …
