HE’S MY TEACHER. I SHOULDN’T BE ALONE WITH HIM. BUT I CAN’T HELP THAT HE’S IRRESISTIBLE.I let the door silently close at my back. He stared at me, and a taut quiet stretched between us.“I like hearing you play,” I said, moving toward him.He turned, in sync with my slow approach. He looked up at me but didn’t say anything. I rested my clammy hand on the cold, slick body of the baby grand. “May I?”The muscles in his throat shifted, then he swallowed. “Eden.”My knees weakened, like a soft tickling kiss had just been blown against …

During a brief trip to Vegas, Charlie Howard – mystery writer and professional thief – is nonplussed to find his agent, Victoria, being charmed by a stage illusionist at a high stakes roulette table. It doesn’t help that the illusionist, Josh Masters, has invited Victoria to his sell-out show, nor that he seems to be doing very well at roulette. Still, Charlie’s not one to hold a grudge, least of all when he could be holding Masters’ wallet.

Matters are complicated however when Charlie discovers the trussed-up corpse of Masters’ beautiful assistant lying in the bath.When Masters disappears and Charlie is …

Book Blurb:
What fortune awaited sweet, timid Percy Parker at Athens Academy? Hidden in the dark heart of Victorian London, the Romanesque school was dreadfully imposing, a veritable fortress, and little could Percy guess what lay inside. She had never met its powerful and mysterious Professor Alexi Rychman, knew nothing of the growing shadows, of the Ripper and other supernatural terrors against which his coterie stood guard. She saw simply that she was different, haunted, with her snow white hair, pearlescent skin and uncanny gift. This arched …
This week we decided to start something new in this post series. We will now each week choose our favorite covers in a genre and tell you why we chose them. It would be awesome if you could tell us which cover in this genre is your favorite and perhaps we will all find some new to us cover candies we can obsess about.
For the first week we chose Urban Fantasy and here are the covers we adore most at the moment:

If that isn’t bad enough, her mom decides to throw her a 3-0 birthday bash in the family funeral home.
