Taking A Break from IKC for Today's Smooch Stop

Hi Everyone!

I know it's been IKC all the time around here but I just wanted to take a little break and talk about Tempest Unleashed, the follow-up to Tempest Rising.  It hits shelves June 5, 2012 and I finally have the finalized cover for it.  So, with no further ado, here it is:




And as an extra treat, here's the German cover for Tempest Rising.  It's totally different, but I think it's really pretty.  What do you think? 


Don't forget to leave a comment to be entered for today's daily prize on the Around the World in 80 Kisses tour, as well as the weekly and grand prize.  And thanks to everyone who came out for our booksigning this weekend.  We'll post the complete schedule for the rest of the book signing tour later this week.  Happy Wednesday :)
