We are beyond excited to announce the next Daphne Press Deluxe offering, Lips Touch by the incredible Laini Taylor (@lainit)!

This edition features a stunning naked hardback wraparound cover created especially for this edition by Jim di Bartolo (@jimdibartolo) and is housed in a purple slipcase with foiled details.

Three tales of supernatural love, each pivoting on a kiss that is no mere kiss, but an action with profound consequences for the kissers' souls:

Goblin Fruit:
In Victorian times, goblin men had only to offer young girls sumptuous fruits to tempt them to sell their souls. But what does it take to tempt today's savvy girls?

Spicy Little Curses:
A demon and the ambassador to Hell tussle over the soul of a beautiful English girl in India. Matters become complicated when she falls in love and decides to test her curse.

Hatchling:
Six days before Esme's fourteenth birthday, her left eye turns from brown to blue. She little suspects what the change heralds, but her small safe life begins to unravel at once. What does the beautiful, fanged man want with her, and how is her fate connected to a mysterious race of demons?

The book also has:

• Two-colour printing throughout
• A ribbon bookmark
• Head and Tail bands
• Designed endpapers
• A full colour signed tip in page with artwork by Jim

This numbered edition is limited to 2,000 copies and is signed by both Laini and Jim.
It is printed on 100gsm Munken print acid free paper.

Our thanks to the team at @hodderscape, Laini Taylor and Jim di Bartolo for working with us on this special release.
