Book 3 in the Covenant Series


History is on repeat, and things didn't go so well the last time.

Alexandria isn’t sure she’s going to make it to her eighteenth birthday—to her Awakening. A long-forgotten, fanatical order is out to kill her, and if the Council ever discovers what she did in the Catskills, she’s a goner... and so is Aiden.

If that’s not freaky enough, whenever Alex and Seth spend time "training"—which really is just Seth's code word for some up-close and personal one-on-one time—she ends up with another mark of the Apollyon, which brings her one step closer to Awakening ahead of schedule. Awesome.

But as her birthday draws near, her entire world shatters with a startling revelation and she’s caught between love and Fate. One will do anything to protect her. One has been lying to her since the beginning. Once the gods have revealed themselves, unleashing their wrath, lives will be irrevocably changed... and destroyed.

Those left standing will discover if love is truly greater than Fate...

- Released on: November 6, 2012

Jen posted a Deity teaser on her blog today

“I’ll talk to Marcus,” Aiden said, voice gruff.
“You already said that.”
“I did?” His head angled slightly. “We should head back.”
I swallowed. Aiden wasn’t moving, and every muscle in my bodydemanded that I cross that tiny space between us. But I pushed back the chair,making a horrible scratching noise. I stood. There didn’t seem to be enough airin the little room with faded, pea green walls. I started toward the door, butstopped when I realized I’d left my bag on the table. I turned around.
Aiden stood in front of me. I hadn’t heard him rise or move towardme. He had my bag in hand, book already tucked inside. And he was standing soclose that the tips of his shoes brushed mine. My heart was racing and it feltlike a dozen butterflies had exploded in my stomach. I was half afraid tobreathe, to feel what I knew I wasn’t allowed.
He placed the strap of my bag over my shoulder and then he tuckedmy hair back behind my ear. I thought that maybe he was going to hug me—orshake me, because that was always a possibility. But then his hand slid over mycheek and his thumb smoothed over my lower lip, careful with the faint scarover the center, even though the pain had long since ceased

Holy crow! I love Jennifer! She sure knows how to paint a scene with words! I can't wait for pure, and now she's giving us this?!

Yes it's because the Pure e-book is already available for everyone to get.

It is?! Where have I been? I must buy it, now!

Yes apparently the e-books are out now.

Got it. Phew. Now I just have to finish Covenant. lol.

I can't wait til November! I. Just. Can't.

i know. pure is brilliant isn't it? cnt wait till june when the arcs =)

Wow. *thrilled*

It sure is, Kay! I'm excited!

I'm super excited. You should be too since if I get an ARC, which I should since I'm on the list for it, I'll send it to you when I've finished

Aw thank you, thank you, Kay!:D :D :D You're an Angel!! I'm very grateful that you would do that. :)

Isn't the cover to Deity interesting??

=D
Yes I love the cover to Deity, I think it's my favourite of the series. I love how it's different from the others but it stays with the same theme as well

Oh I know! :) I'm wondering what color the next cover will be. I'm guessing a yellowish/gold?

I'm trying to figure out the significance of this cover (view spoiler)[ and the little S, snakelike thing?? I hope it's not an S for Seth. But what is it, I wonder? (hide spoiler)]

isn't it funny that we see different things coz I didn't see that as an S at all. I see an O with a flicky thing on the top. I thought it was just some symbol maybe that has to do with the Appolyon

Ah! I see what you mean. hmm maybe it's a rune? It looks like it's on a heart though, no?

See I don't see a heart either. Hmmm lol

this is fun! It reminds me of when was getting ready to be released and a bunch of us were trying to figure out what the little teasers and trailers that the publishers were putting out meant (they were clues). lol

lol. i know =)

I have like 60+ pages left of Pure and I'm trying NOT to finish because I don't want to wait 7 1/2 months for this book to come out. I LOVE the cover and the color is gorgeous.. as all of them have been so far. Eeek!

The symbol is the Greek Letter Delta. That's all I got :)

i already thought the symbol looked familiar. But knowing it is a greek symbol doesn't bring us much closer to it's meaning, does it?

I don't think it brings us any closer to the meaning. It may not even be the letter, but that's what it looks like to me.

I knew it looks familiar. Thanks Emily that's been bugging me for hours haha.
I'm not that surprised that it's a greek symbol you know with it having greek mythology in it =)

It's the Mark of the Apollyon! And I am freaking out to see the cover of Apollyon now that I'm hearing all about it.. ahhh!!!!

Oh that was interesting, Cassandra. Thanks for posting it. I was waaay off! lol

I thought it would have something to do with that.

Holy crap.. JLA just read the blurb for Deity during her vlog and I cannot wait until November.. I need this book NOW!!!!!!

I couldn't be there for the live vlog since it started at like 11pm here :(

I'm glad to hear that, cos i found a pure e-book and i thought it was strange cos i was like a while before the book was actually meant to come out, but i read it anyway, it was awesome!!!! I love the covers for the covenant books!!!
I can't wait for deity!!! How much time left?

Deity comes out in November.
If you have a look there is a release date calander thread.

Can someone post the blurb or tell what it was about. I was really busy last night so I couldn't do the vlog. Thanks!!!

Jennifer asked us not to write it down as she read it, it's not going to be released for quite some time.. she read it as a little sneak peek for those who attended. :/ Sorry.

I thought it was going to come out in August!!
No...wait....that's oynx....whoops
Oh well, i wish it would come out in August.....

I think ARCs are getting sent out June or July *squeal!* I'm very excited. I think ARCs of Cursed go out the same time as well lol

Showing my ignorance here...
What are ARCs?

Advanced Reader Copies
bloggers get them for review

Ah. :) I knew it was something like that, but couldn't figure out what the hell the letters stood for. Thanks!

So Kate from SHP had a contest on her blog and I won so I'm getting an ARC of Deity.. I am SO freakin' excited!!

Jenn said she'd post the Deity blurb in the next few weeks. It was like 11:30pm here in the UK but I still watched the live chat, couldn't finish it though I fell asleep before 1am lol but the Deity blurb sounds even more awesome than Pure!

Congrats Cassandra. Do you know when your getting it?
I'm getting an ARC of it and I think they are going out in June/July time

Thanks.. my boss officially thinks I'm a nutcase because I jumped out of my chair at the email.. haha.

She said she was putting me on the list to receive whichever I choose, I haven't gotten a response since I gave her my choice.. so not positive as to when I will get it.

aww.
I emailed SHP and askes about ARCs for and I've been put on the ARC list for all of them. So excited for them! Deity and Cursed are going out in June or July and the other two I'm not sure because they aren't due out until 2013

Ooh lucky!! I never got a response to my request for 2 ARCs so my guess is I won't be getting them.. oh well. I'll continue reviewing the books I do have and one day I might get some.. haha. It's all good. All 4 of those sounds sooo good!

which ones did you request?

Okay guys. Deity blurb is UP!
I have posted it in comment 1. At the top.

All I can say is I KNEW IT!
I think Aiden is the one that will do anything to protect her and Seth is the one that has lied to her from the beginning! I knew something was up with him from that start and all was not how it seems,
I KNEW IT!

Cursed and one that isn't by JLA.. I'd have to go back and look.

And as far as the blurb goes, everyone freaked out during the vlog and Jennifer said that the one that lied and the one that will protect her aren't necessarily Seth and Aiden and she laughed that everyone jumped to that conclusion.. just some food for thought!! ;)

Nope I'm still adamant that it is. She's just trying to throw us off I think!
