Today we have the extreme pleasure of helping reveal the cover for Sweet Peril by Wendy Higgins! Sweet Peril is book 2 in her Sweet Series, with Sweet Evil being book 1.
The YA Sisterhood loved, loved, loved Sweet Evil, and we cannot wait to read Sweet Peril! We are dying for more Kaidan--as I'm sure many are considering how many nominations he got for the YA Crush Tourney this summer! Sweet Evil had only been out for a few months, and Kaidan made the tourney! That's amazing!!!
Sweet Peril will be released April 30, 2013
Book 3, Sweet Reckoning, is slated for spring/summer 2014

Never read Sweet Evil? Check out what it's about:
Embrace the Forbidden
What if there were teens whose lives literally depended on being bad influences?
This is the reality for sons and daughters of fallen angels.
Tenderhearted Southern girl Anna Whitt was born with the sixth sense to see and feel emotions of other people. She's aware of a struggle within herself, an inexplicable pull toward danger, but Anna, the ultimate good girl, has always had the advantage of her angel side to balance the darkness within. It isn't until she turns sixteen and meets the alluring Kaidan Rowe that she discovers her terrifying heritage and her willpower is put to the test. He's the boy your daddy warned you about. If only someone had warned Anna.
Forced to face her destiny, will Anna embrace her halo or her horns?
*****************************************
So...without further ado!!!!
Anna Whitt, daughter of a guardian angel and a demon, promised herself she’d never do the work of her father—polluting souls. She’d been naive to make such a claim. She’d been naive about a lot of things.
Haunted by demon whisperers, Anna does whatever she can to survive, even if it means embracing her dark side and earning an unwanted reputation as her school’s party girl. Her life has never looked more bleak. And all the while there’s Kaidan Rowe, son of the Duke of Lust, plaguing her heart and mind.
When an unexpected lost message from the angels surfaces, Anna finds herself traveling the globe with Kopano, son of Wrath, in an attempt to gain support of fellow Nephilim and give them hope for the first time. It soon becomes clear that whatever freedoms Anna and the rest of the Neph are hoping to win will not be gained without a fight. Until then, Anna and Kaidan must put aside the issues between them, overcome the steamiest of temptations yet, and face the ultimate question: is loving someone worth risking their life?
************************************************
Isn't it gorgeous? I love the look of the sky in this cover---the orangy-red and black! I'm betting its symbolic of the turmoil that Anna and Kaidan are going to go through! Oh...the angst! I can't wait!
Well, there it is! I hope you like it!
Let us know what you think in the comments!!!
