Hi all,
These are the final cover designs from six different artists. At this point, no major changes will be made. Please review them for final input. I am including the synopsis at the end.
The genre is contemporary women's fiction and the cover should be intriguing and appealing to women, particularly. Please rate the designs and give me your overall thoughts. Feel free to note whether or not there are particular elements that don't fit, or a vibe that you do or don't like.
I expect to decide within a week. Your help is very much appreciated!

SYNOPSIS:
When her brother dies suddenly and she’s named legal guardian to three children she’s never met, Lita Bravo, a tattooed, thirty-two-year-old amateur mixed martial arts fighter, leaves her high desert home in Arizona for the Bay Area in California to pick up a future she never wanted.
For Jade McGovern, a serious twelve-year-old who color-coordinates her clothes and can’t stand disorder, life becomes unhinged when her parents die. Thrust into a new home life with a coarse, incompetent aunt, Jade decides to do everything she can to get back to California.
Evie Long, whose life, loves and libations have always come first, really wants a drink. She doesn’t recognize the daughter who ran away nearly twenty years ago and wonders why her son and husband aren’t coming to take her home.
SHADOWS ON THE HEART is told from the perspective of three unique narrators, one with dementia, and explores the bonds of family, friendship and the rippling impact of loss, grief and addiction across generations.
