Release Date: May 7th 2013
The personification of
Aryan purity, Ellyssa's spent her whole life under her creator's strict
training and guidance; her purpose is to eradicate inferior beings. She
was genetically engineered to be the perfect soldier: strong,
intelligent, unemotional, and telepathic.
Only Ellyssa isn't perfect.
Ellyssa feels emotions--a fact she's spent her life concealing. Until she encounters the epitome of inferiority: a dark-haired boy raised among renegades hiding since the Nazis won the war a century ago. He speaks to her telepathically, pushing thoughts into her mind, despite the impossibility of such a substandard person having psychic abilities.
But he does.
His unspoken words and visions of a place she's never visited make Ellyssa question her creator. Confused and afraid her secret will be discovered, Ellyssa runs away, embarking on a journey where she discovers there is more to her than perfection

This cover is simple, it's simplicity makes it a little more of a contemporary rather than dystopian.. I like the eye with the butterfly. The book sounds great, I hope the cover could be improved a little.
So What do you think?
