Here is the beautiful cover for my September release, The Reluctant Bride,
written under my Beverley Eikli name. Last December I had the enormous good fortune and excitement of winning Choc-Lit’s Search for an Australian Star. Since then my publisher has been absolutely wonderful about keeping me in the loop regarding so many aspects of book’s progress towards publication and today I received this absolutely gorgeous cover.
I’ve mentioned a little about it in my previous post (Her Gilded Prison by Beverley Oakley) and I’ll just add a bit more. This story, which is set in 1813, has had a long and interesting life. It won a Romance Writers of Australia competition, was rewritten three times as the plot took on multiple twists and turns.
Finally, the battle between conflicting loyalties of a half French bride and the returning war hero whom she marries in order to keep the child she’s to bear her dead betrothed lover will come to a head in September with its release.
A lot of murky water keeps these two from entirely trusting each other and it’s only a when lives hang in the balance that my bride risks her own to redeem herself in the eyes of the noble man she’s reluctantly grown to love.

Hey, thanks, Sydney. I’m so glad you love the cover as much as I do. I wasn’t sure if I loved it *just* because it was *my* cover or if it really was as stand-out as I liked to believe it was – is.
I can’t wait to read more.
Thanks,

Thanks, Tawania. I just got the 3D image – the first time a publisher has done that. It’s really exciting.
It is a beautiful cover. I would love to read it when it’s out.
