Description
In 1888, following her mother's sudden death, seventeen-year-old Arabella Sharp goes to live with her grandmother in a posh London neighborhood. At her grandmother's request, Abbie volunteers at Whitechapel Hospital, where she discovers a passion for helping the unfortunate women and children there. But within days, female patients begin turning up brutally murdered at the hands of Jack the Ripper. Even more horrifying, Abbie starts having strange visions that lead her straight to the Ripper's next massacres. As her apparent psychic connection with the twisted killer grows stronger, Abbie is drawn into a deadly mystery involving the murders, her mother's shadowed past, and a secret brotherhood of immortals—who'll stop at nothing to lure Abbie into its "humanitarian" aims.

DescriptionMirabelle's past is shrouded in secrecy, from her parents' tragic deaths to her guardians' half-truths about why she can't return to her birthplace, Beau Rivage. Desperate to see the town, Mira runs away a week before her sixteenth birthday—and discovers a world she never could have imagined.
In Beau Rivage, nothing is what it seems—the strangely pale girl with a morbid interest in apples, the obnoxious playboy who's a beast to everyone he meets, and the chivalrous guy who has a thing for damsels in distress. Here, fairy tales come to life, curses are awakened, and ancient stories are played out again and again.
But fairy tales aren't pretty things, and they don't always end in happily ever after. Mira has a role to play, a fairy tale destiny to embrace or resist. As she struggles to take control of her fate, Mira is drawn into the lives of two brothers with fairy tale curses of their own . . . brothers who share a dark secret. And she'll find that love, just like fairy tales, can have sharp edges and hidden thorns.

DescriptionViolet kept her morbid ability to sense dead bodies a secret from everyone except her family and her childhood-best-friend-turned-boyfriend, Jay Heaton. That is until forensic psychologist Sara Priest discovered Violet's talent and invited her to use her gift to track down murderers. Now, as she works with an eclectic group of individuals—including mysterious and dangerously attractive Rafe—it's Violet's job to help those who have been murdered by bringing their killers to justice.

Couvertures
Allez, on va clore la partie couverture avec Wicked Scribes.
Une anthologie publiée par Charlaine Harris. J'avoue que ce qui m'intéresse c'est uniquement la mention de Ilona Andrews sur la couverture.
Bref, disponible en version reliée le 4 septembre.
Le quatrième tome d'une saga que j'ai eu l'occasion de commencer, House of Comarre, va voir le jour le 30 octobre sous la plume de Kristen Painter.
Les couverture sont belles, mais j'ai vu des critiques assez moyennes des tomes 2 et 3 où l'auteur tourne un peu en rond et manque de punch :/

I started counting time for you.
I want to change who I am for you.
You are my Grace.
He was too full and there weren’t enough words.
He said, “I did not know I needed grace until I met you.”
Extrait :
"Oracle’s Moon has hands-down one of the best sex scenes I have ever read."
