‘Cover Crush’ is a regular feature here at BCC. We love covers – they’re the first thing that catches our eye and will be the primary reason we pick up a book. This feature is where we highlight gorgeous covers of books we’ve seen either around the blogosphere or at the bookshop. These posts run sporadically, as soon as we see a cover we love, we’ll post it!
CAROLYN’S COVER CRUSH


I love the ‘Sabina Kane‘ series, and I’ve loved each new cover more than the last, and “Blue-Blooded Vamp” is no exception. It is by far the best in the series. I love Sabina’s sexy leather top, her gun, the red highlights in her hair – I also love the backdrop and the blue tones. It’s just an awesome cover!

Summary
Sabina Kane is on the hunt. Her prey: Cain, the father of the vampire race and the one who murdered her family and her friends. Unfortunately, Cain is hunting Sabina, too. 

The one man who holds the key to defeating Cain is, of course, Abel. A mage with secrets to spare and, hopefully, the power to match it. Unfortunately, for Sabina, he’s in Rome and may not want to be found.

Sabina sets out for Italy with her friends, Giguhl and Adam Lazarus, to track down the only man who can get her the revenge she hungers for. But will he help her or oppose her? And just who is Abel, really? Worst of all, when Sabina figures out the goddess Lilith has a plan for her, she realizes this trip is getting deadlier by the minute. As they say: when in Rome – SURVIVE. (Goodreads)

LAURA’S COVER CRUSH

Rachel Vincent has recently released the US cover for ‘Shadow Bound’ book number two in her new Urban Fantasy series Unbound out in May 2012. I think that this cover has more of a paranormal romance feel to it, what do you think?

It’s often the use of colour that attracts me to book covers, and this one is no exception. Particularly as green and lilac are two of my favourite colours. It’s got both a magical and sexy feel to it. Looking forward to the UK cover being released.

Summary
If you live in the dark long enough, you begin to forget the light… 

KORI DANIELS is a shadow-walker, able to travel instantly from one shadow to another. After weeks of confinement for betraying her boss, she’s ready to break free of the Tower syndicate for good. But Jake Tower has one final job for Kori, one chance to secure freedom for herself and her sister, Kenley, even if that means taking it from someone else… 

The job? Recruit Ian Holt—or kill him. 

Ian’s ability to manipulate the dark has drawn interest from every syndicate in the world, most notably an invitation from Jake Tower. Though he has no interest in organized crime, Ian accepts the invite, because he’s on a mission of his own. Ian has come to kill Tower’s top Binder: Kori’s little sister. 

Amid the tangle of lies, an unexpected thread of truth connecting Ian and Kori comes to light. But with opposing goals, they’ll have to choose between love and liberty… (Goodreads)
