Four Book "Royal Blood" Series Covers
This contest is to find somebody to design a series of 4 covers and a single Full series cover (5 total). Feel free to design only one or two covers for this contest, as the full set will be handled via a separate 99Designs Project. These will all need to be provided in .psd editable Photoshop versions (as we need to update titles for translations). These professional-quality covers should clearly communicate that these novellas are: romance, adult, vampire-themed, and set in a contemporary timeframe.
A series is about a family of vampire royals, fighting to control their kingdom. The setting is the contemporary, modern world (modern clothing), where magic and supernatural creatures exist. These books are not YA and have explicit sexual content.
We'll need the title and author name included on all covers; subtitles and series name can be included or not as you see fit
