Review: Does the cover really portray the book?

Mrs Elliot has written a very nice new Modern Paranormal book. Every time I went back to the book, I kept feeling like the cover didn't fit the book, but then I read the author's comment at the end of the story, and it fits. Mrs. Elliot, use a better cover for book 2. This isn't a light story. It deals with the many issues of being a young mother, as well as the issues of abandonment from when her only parent dies when she was 16. The world of demons she has created is both believable and gritty, another reason to get away from the theme of the first book cover. The water fairy boss is just as inscrutable as she should be. Her 2 partners in crime, one the Templar father of her child and the other her Hunter partner who watched over her at the birth of that same child, are as driven as she is, and just as confused about their relationships whith each other. All 3 has each others backs, as they should, and the story is high action all the way through. This feels like a real world, which is always tough in this genre. This has the potential to equal the worlds of 'The Hollows' from Kim Harrison and Charlaine Harris's 'Sookie Stackhouse' novels. I am eagerly awaiting the next book.
