What do you guys think of this one for a new A Sense of Duty - A Medieval Romance cover?

I like this cover; the female figure with the sword says 'feminine but gutsy'.

The tower on the right is maybe a bit too phallic? Which may or may not be relevant to the book.

Hmmm, that's actually how the towers were shaped back then. That's a real tower image. I'm not sure how I could alter it and still have it be a medieval tower. I'll ponder ...

Like Grace, I also like the cover. It's clean and has the strong female figure on the front. Like the title as well. Strong and punchy.

The tower does look phallic but I think that adds to the strength of the cover. I think they may have built them like that on purpose. Just a thought. I don't know much about Medieval times.

Thank you guys so much!

I've polished up Aspen Allegation's cover to give it more contrast. Right is the new version. Thoughts?



The photo shows the actual location the dead body was found in .

I have done it. I have loaded a new cover for A Sense of Duty to Kindle and paperback. They'll be live soon! Only 11 more to go! .

Here's the new cover for Trusting In Faith. Thoughts? This is a medieval romance; Sarah is a midwife. She risks her life for the women in her care. And then a Templar comes along ... can she trust him?

The new cover idea for In A Glance - A Medieval Romance. Thoughts? Suggestions?

I just published three new books on journaling. There's a main book on the basics of journaling and then two books on prompts. One on gratitude prompts and one on love prompts. What do you think of the covers?

I LOVE the journaling covers! The delicate but bright pastels are perfect with the white background, and the origami is ingenuous. It suggests emotions taking flight into expression via writing on paper. I especially like the hummingbird.

I like the gold award seal on all the books, which really jumps out and looks good. The Aspen cover is good too -- very dark and textured and suggestive of a mystery. The romance covers I also like except for the one where she's riding the horse straight out the reader. Not sure why that bothers me except that it has a less polished look compared to the others. Maybe it's all that blue that merges. Though I do like the sunlight in her hair. The others, though, are gorgeous and remind me of this very nice cover from a romance I recently reviewed:
