SURRENDER Cover Reveal!!

Dude, okay, I may or may not have been waiting for this day for, oh, forever. I saw this cover a while ago--before I even had edits!--and it's been eating at me, and eating at me.

We revealed the title of the companion novel to POSSESSION a while ago, but not the whole cover.


I seriously thought nothing could hold a candle to the enthusiasm and excitement I had for my first book.

I was wrong.

Click here to see the full cover of SURRENDER. Then come back here and tell me what you think!!

So...what do you think?

Check out what the other Bookanistas are up to this week at the Reading Room.

    Love it. Going with the same theme is an awesome idea. Trapped butterfly, trapped bird, it's totally perfect for the story.

    LOVE the hummmingbird and how it is consistent with Possession but yet distinctly different and keeps with the simple lay-out, which I like!!

  50. Angela BrownOctober 27, 2011 at 11:38 AM

    I love it. It keeps in line with the simplicity and strong symbolism of the first. I get that "I know why the caged bird sings" feeling and I just want to shatter than encapsulating glass and let that beautiful creature fly free.

    Sorry, I get emotional sometimes :-)

    I probably would understand the significance of the drawn hummingbird, as opposed to the real butterfly in 'Possession', if I'd actually read 'Possession'. Beautiful cover nonetheless, and it really does match well.
