Gollancz in the UK is publishing the Immortality Bites series by Michelle Rowen and here are the covers for the first two books in the series, Bitten & Smitten and Fanged & Fabulous. I am really liking these covers, they do remind me a little bit of the covers for the Sookie Stackhouse series, but I think they are eye catching and classy. I will definitely be buying this series! Tell me what you guys think – do you like them better than the US Editions?

Bitten & Smitten, Book 1

Bitten & Smitten
Michelle Rowen
July 2010
Gollancz (Paranormal Romance)

Summary
Sarah Dearly’s blind date has an unexpected outcome; she has become a vampire. Soon Sarah encounters suicidal master vampire Thierry de Bennicoeur. Thierry agrees to help Sarah learn how to live as a vampire if she will help him end his life. But in Sarah he might have found his reason for living. (Gollancz)

Fanged & Fabulous, Book 2

August 2010
Gollancz (Paranormal Romance)

Summary
My name is Sarah Dearly, and I’ve got major problems. Last month, I was turned into a vampire by the world’s worst blind date. Then I may have, totally by accident, started a war between the mostly peaceful bloodsuckers and a bunch of sociopathic vamp hunters who have nicknamed me the Slayer of Slayers. Now I’m being used as bait to draw out the hunters’ bad-ass leader, while my gorgeous 600-year-old boyfriend Thierry seems to be blowing me off, and my sizzle-hot, fanged friend Quinn is trying to turn my self-defense lessons into make-out sessions. So you know what? I’m done. I’ve had it. There comes a time when a vamp has to just suck it up and go after what she wants. And as soon as I figure out what that is, that’s exactly what I’ll do… (Goodreads)

Wow, those covers are so different! The US covers make the books seem much more like fun chick-lit style, which seems to match the titles. The UK versions are much more sexy and mysterious. The UK covers are definitely prettier, but which match the stories better? Either way, I'm intrigued and am adding the books to my to-read list, thanks!

I think that second cover looks a lot like the True Blood tv series posters…

Thanks for stopping by guys – you know, the more I look at the covers the more I like them, I think they are really pretty. I agree that they are totally different to the US covers, more serious. I haven't read these books before but when they are released in the UK I will buy them and see if the story matches with the covers :)
