Bitten is a compilation of goth erotic short stories, or as the subtitle says: dark erotic stories. It’s edited by Susie Bright who also compiled X: The Erotic Treasury. The cover illustration is by Hannah Stouffer who also illustrated X.
This has a paperback cover with spot gloss over the snake scales, embossing on the title and author name, and spot metallic ink in the background.
The book block or page edges are dyed black to emphasize the “dark” in erotica, and to add refinement to the overall object.
And I love that it is shiny!
The interior has a traditional design, like X, with Avenir titles and Caslon body text. Hannah Stouffer also created little spot illustrations for the start of each story.
