The final cover for Surrender the Heart!




































Although there are no tall ships or hint of the sea, I'm quite pleased with this cover! It is attractive and eye-catching and gives the suspenseful feel of the story. What do you think?

The whole thing is gorgeous, especially the dress! The look on her face combined with not knowing what's coming down that corridor...yep, the suspense is there! :o)

All of the covers have been beautiful, but this one really focuses on the character. Her beautiful face, her expression, and the anticipation of things to come shines from her eyes.

It turned out pretty good, MaryLu! I'd definitely pick it up at the bookstore. It has more of the feel of a historical suspense novel to it, which I like.

Rebecca Herman said...

I like a lot! While I do miss the ships I still like it better than the original cover, because I like seeing the main character's face. I don't like headless covers.

Sarah McBride said...

Looks great!! To be honest, I even like it better than your other covers, because it feels more real. You can tell there's danger and mystery!

Diane S. said...

Yes, I love it too! When does the book come out?
