Title AND Cover Reveal!!!

So, I have this book coming out next January...some of you may have heard about it, the second book in the Pledge trilogy???

I've known the title for, like, forever. And I saw the cover ages ago too. But I haven't been able to share either of them with you guys.

Until now...

THE ESSENCE



Just some of the things I love about this cover:

1.  It's the same model from The Pledge. 

2. The red! Dear lord, the red!

3.  I love her expression. She looks fierce.

4.  Did I mention the red?!?!


So...I'd love to hear what you think...

Love it? Hate it? Want to cut it out and plaster your walls with it (or is that just me)???


(And look! You can add it to your Goodreads shelf here!)

A Backwards Story - Yeah, I'm not sure why the move to January, but I think it might have been a strategic decision. The whole publishing machine still astounds me. I just smile and nod.
