I love this cover, but I liked the Merit on the earlier covers better than this one pictured. At least she has dark hair on the US ones, unlike those UK covers!
Me too! That's what I meant, the "early" cover - Merit ;-) Because that's pretty much exactly how I picture her. And she does talk about her bangs a lot.
This is defo a cool cover. But Merit is too short besides not having bangs. I really like e backdrop (although not quite what I imagined either).
Hmmm, I like the coloring and the background but Merit looks rather...stocky. JMO though.I'm not reading pre-released chapters this year, lol. I want it all to be new and frech when I buy it at the store.
Getting excited! I think I need to do a re-read of the last book! Think Merit will come clean to Ethan about the red guard in this one? I kind of want some Jonah/Ethan/Merit tension!!!
Chloe put this up yesterday... He stopped behind my chair and held out a hand. The entire table went silent.
“Dance with me,” he said.
My cheeks warmed. “There’s no music.”
Before he had time to respond, the quartet in the corner—a group of Cadogan and Rogue vampires with musical talents—began to play a jazzy tune.
I gave him a sardonic look. “Did you just telepathically direct them to start playing that?”
“What’s the point of being telepathic if you can’t use the connection for a wee bit of wickedness, Sentinel?”
I heard the yearning sigh of a female vampire to my right, and caught the dreamy-eyed gaze of a male vampire to my left. Ethan was an equal-opportunity crush.
He wiggled his fingers. “Merit?”
With the audience’s eyes on me, it would have been difficult to say no to Ethan even if I hadn’t had feelings for him. That I did made it virtually impossible.
“Of course,” I said, putting my hand in his and letting him lead me to the makeshift dance floor.
Oh, my God, could he move.
Ethan whipped a hand around my waist like he’d trained with the cast of a televised dance competition. With moves that were a mix of swing and tango, he led me around the floor like a dance master, all the while keeping those ridiculously green eyes focused on me. Fortunately, I’d been a ballerina in my former (human) life, so I managed to keep up with him. I even tried to put on a good show—or at least as good a show as pants and a fitted leather jacket would allow—to the surprise of Rogue and Cadogan vampires.
The song ended, and Ethan dropped me into a dip, his smile mischievous and his eyes twinkling. The rest of the world came rushing back in a roar of sound as the vampires on the margins of the dance floor burst into applause.
Ethan brought me back to my feet, my ponytail bobbing over a shoulder. “And that, Sentinel, is how you impress a crowd.”
awe.....swoon.....
I started reading this morning since it downloaded onto my NOOK this morning. Was going to read last night, but could not get to download for some reason.
