Here is the gorgeous cover for my April 27, 2010 release Mistress by Mistake!!! I could not be more excited! Thank you cover designer Kristine Mills-Noble, illustrator Alan Ayers, and my editor Megan Records at Kensington, who wrote the perfect, perfect cover copy.
My scanner did not quite pick up the rich reds and maroons. In person, the coverflat is darker, more raspberry than orange, absolutely exquisite. I’m off to have a little cry.
I am still squeeing with delight! This cover is gorgeous and sexy. Plus, how awesome is Anna Campbell's quote. Mistress by Mistake is going to fly off shelves come next May 2010!!!!
YAY!!!! WOOHOO!!!!!
Happy dancing for you!!!
WOW, that was fast! 🙂
It's amazingly gorgeous, congrats!
