Love Bytes is delighted to reveal to you the fabulous new cover of J.T Hall’s upcoming Riptide release “Forest of Thorns and Claws”.
Check out the fabulous cover by L.C Chase below!
Donovan McGinnis, a veterinarian and conservationist at a research center in Sumatra, is fighting to save the rainforest from poachers and politicians alike. One day he discovers a tigress trapped by a snare, and while treating her injuries, she bites him. He becomes ill with strange symptoms that leave him feverish and dreaming of the jungle and blood.
Kersen and his family are part of the Harimau jadian, a clan of tiger shifters hidden away in a secret village near the rainforest. When Kersen’s sister is caught, he knows he must free her before she infects someone with their magic and reveals their secret.
But Donovan has already been turned, and only time will tell if he can control the tiger within. Kersen must help him, but will the fierce attraction between the pair bring ruin to them all? With the rainforest under threat from outside forces, they may be doomed anyway, unless Kersen and Donovan can find a way to defeat the danger from inside and out.
What a beautiful cover… All big cats and handsome men. I love it! Congratulations, L.C.
The cover is gorgeous. I love the brown eyes of the men. They match the tigers perfectly.
This is yet another excellent cover from L.C. Chase. She captured the essence of the novel with the claw mark, the enchanted forest in the background, the guy on the left’s blank face, like he doesn’t know what to do, as if he’s Donovan himself & the guy on the right’s knitted eyebrows, like what the hell he’s (Kersen) going to do with Donovan’s transition.
I’m in awe of L.C. Chase’s talent! Thanks for sharing
Awesome cover and the blurb sounds promising. But still more than a month til the book is out :/
This is just the type of book I love to read. Too bad I have to wait.
Love that intense look, the cats and men complimented each other. Congrats JT and LC for the good collaboration! 🙂
Fantastic cover and the story sounds great too!
Beautiful cover, I love the premise of the story and I’m adding the book to my wish list.
Love the cover, the guy’s ayes are what attracted me first then the tigers. I love it, and the book sounds great.
This Cover is Gorgeous! Looking forward to release day!
Congrats and thanks for the post. Great cover. Those tiger eyes are mesmerizing. I mean the ones on the men. –

Great cover, the story sounds wonderful =)
Congrats on the upcoming release! The cover looks great and the premise sounds fantastic, different from the usual shifter book. I can’t wait!
What a unique premise! This sounds really good and the cover ‘makes’ the story come alive!
A tiger-shifter story set in Sumatra–sounds like a great book, and I love the fact that one of the MCs is so invested in protecting the rain forest and its inhabitants. Found the cover to be compelling and every bit as intriguing as the blurb. Really looking forward to reading this tiger-tale
