One of the pivotal stages of a new book's launch is the cover reveal, and I blew it! The blog post email notifications failed to display the big reveal. Urgg. It's always something with tech! I haven't found a permanent "fix," but I've found a workaround (fingers crossed). My apologies for the earlier blog post failure. Here it is again:
Cover reveals are one of the highlights of a writer's career. It's also a major milestone for the book and becomes the centrepiece for marketing and promoting the book. So you can imagine how excited I am to share the cover for Hexborn.
The designers at 100 covers have nailed the branding of The Thorne Witch novels. Not only is the colour exquisite, but the use of poisonous belladonna, aka nightshade, hints at the story’s dark side.
Witch by birth, warlock by trade.
Adeline Thorne is a witch. The magic inside her is not.
The warlock magic coursing through her veins is volatile, incompatible with her witch blood, and growing more unstable by the day. When Luke Churchwell, a powerful runecaster, returns and sees how far her magic has spiralled, he steps in to train her—but every lesson is a gamble, and his desire for her may take them both down.
Far across the country, the hexborn are tracking a killer whose trail leads straight to Adeline.
The hunter is closing in. And the secret that created him is deadlier than the man himself.
