Fierce, seductive mermaid Syrenka falls in love with Ezra, a young naturalist. When she abandons her life underwater for a chance at happiness on land, she is unaware that this decision comes with horrific and deadly consequences.
Almost one hundred forty years later, seventeen-year-old Hester meets a mysterious stranger named Ezra and feels overwhelmingly, inexplicably drawn to him. For generations, love has resulted in death for the women in her family. Is it an undiagnosed genetic defect . . . or a curse? With Ezra’s help, Hester investigates her family’s strange, sad history. The answers she seeks are waiting in the graveyard, the crypt, and at the bottom of the ocean—but powerful forces will do anything to keep her from uncovering her connection to Syrenka and to the tragedy of so long ago

A novella from the male character's POV in Caged Moon.
Tormented by a repressed past, Liam is faced with the responsibility of raising, and taking care of a pack of younger, obnoxious ‘pups’. He’d do anything for them; guilt from prior mistakes, driving him to protect them at any cost. Until a strange human girl, bearing the scent of a wolf, throws his world into chaos. Instinct says she’s his mate. Logic says she’s a danger to the pack. Curiosity can’t keep him away.
The Caged Moon series:
What do we all think!? I really like them. The cover for Teeth could be great in real life! I imagine it very flashy and shiny! I think the redesign for Monstrous Beauty is gorgeous. I love the bright covers. I also really like the dark vibe of the Alpha Moon cover!
Leave me your thoughts!
Wow. Teeth sounds creepy, but amazing. And as for Monstrous Beauty, I prefer the new cover. The old one is just... blegh.
ReplyDeleteI'm gonna go check out Teeth! ;)
LOVE them. Especially TEETH. Sadly, I prefer the older cover of the second book. :(
ReplyDeleteTeeth caught my attention right away and while I like the new cover of Monstrous Beauty..i kinda like the old cover too.
ReplyDeleteAwesome cover reveals:)
oooh, I LOVE the cover for Teeth! So clever!
ReplyDeleteWait... so... they're CHANGING the cover for Monstrous Beauty, or is it, like, the UK cover? SO INTRIGUED :O
OOooOO Teeth is new to me and ... ohhh that sounds great!!!! Since I read Of Poseidon I'm more inclined giving fish stories a try! This one truly has an unique sound to it!!
ReplyDeleteThe first two books caught my attention.
ReplyDeleteOoh, these are some really interesting and creepy covers!
ReplyDeleteHmm. I love the cover of Teeth and it sounds liek a fishy version of The Magician's Nephew! I don't like the new cover of Monstrous Beauty but the story sounds pretty good. ^^

Alpha Moon sounds interesting and I really like the cover. I have Caged Moon a while now and still haven't read it. I think I'll have to move it up my list because it is a series that sounds really good.
ReplyDeleteMonstrous Beauty, I much prefer the old cover. The colouring and background appeal to me much more.
And unfortunately I don't like the cover for Teeth and the blurb doesn't really call out to me either.
Thanks for sharing :)
@Sarah: It looks like they changed it completely.
ReplyDeleteoh i like the Teeth cover as for Monstrous Beauty I really prefer the old cover!
ReplyDelete- juhina
Not sure how I feel about the new version of Monstrous Beauty. It looks... a little gross maybe.
ReplyDeleteOh Teeth sounds interesting. I really like the original cover for Monstrous Beauty better than the new one. At least they did the cover change before the book comes out.
ReplyDeleteI would have to say my favorite in your post is Teeth. Pretty awesome. I like clever covers. Also, I think I like the old cover of Monstrous Beauty. Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteOoooh MY GOD! So Teeth looks and sounds EPIC! AND I'd never heard of Caged Moon before!!! I liked the old cover for Monsterous Beauty WAY better!!! :(
ReplyDeleteI really love the cover for Teeth. So simple but there's so much depth to it with the hooks and the fish scales. I like the newer cover for Monstrous Beauty better too, definitely an upgrade!
ReplyDeleteWow is right!
ReplyDeleteJen
Wow teeth sure does sound interesting lol. However, I just wish it was a bit more expressive of the book. Seems a little plane.
ReplyDeleteI definitely like Teeth's cover best. It also looks kind of fishy. Don't they look like scales in the background?
ReplyDeleteNot in love with either Monstrous Beauty cover.
ZOMG. Just noticed the heart is made out of fishing lures. That's awesome and terrifying!
ReplyDeleteSome beautiful covers Giselle! I love the cover to Teeth! Also for Monstrous Beauty I can't decide, both covers look amazing! I think I prefer the old one slightly more! :)
ReplyDeleteOh I LOVE the cover of Teeth. Maybe it's because I like fishing, I don't know. It's gorgeous though. And the story sound very interesting.
ReplyDeleteTeeth sounds awesome! For Monstrous Beauty i like the old one beter, the new one's just meh!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the share! =D
Oh really? I liked the old cover of Monstrous Beauty so much. It's one of the reasons I was drawn to it. That's sort of a bummer. Hopefully in real life the new cover will impress me just as much.
ReplyDeleteThe MONSTROUS BEAUTY redesign is beautiful. AND the book is amazing. Congratulations to Elizabeth Fama!
ReplyDeleteAnd WHOA T
Teeth: half-teenager, half-fish? :D Haha, sounds super! I like the color. Monstrous beauty is creepy.
