Cover Reveal: Marriage Under Fire

Deciding on cover art is a nerve-wracking process for authors. How do you capture 80K, 50K or even 20K words in a single image? Will the image engage readers’ attention? Will it inspire them to pick up the book or click through on Amazon for more information?

According to The Book Designer, fiction book covers have a variety of goals, including:

  • Convey genre (i.e. historical, contemporary, suspense)
  • Establish tone (i.e. gritty, flirty, humorous)
  • Generate excitement

Kim Killion of The Killion Group designs the cover for both of my romantic suspense series, The Code Breakers and Grayce Walters. I had the opportunity to meet Harvey Stables, one of Kim’s most popular cover models at a local conference.

Picture with Harvey Gaudan StablesThat clinch, delightful as it was, isn’t cover worthy, but Harvey and Kim still managed to get the job done when I needed a cover for MARRIAGE UNDER FIRE.

Cover Reveal: MEN UNDER FIRE

MEN UNDER FIRE, Book 3 in the Grayce Walters series has a cover! Meet Nick Welby. He looks exactly as I imagined my hero from WOMEN UNDER FIRE. Nick brings Talley, his bomb-sniffing dog, to Grayce for help in treating the dog’s PTSD following an IED explosion having heard of Grayce’s healing abilities using animal acupuncture. Thanks to Kim Killion for another fantastic cover design.
