Hi Everybody!
I'm pretty excited today. I'm almost finished making a set of new
covers for all the Fortune Bay books. Such a lot of work! But I think 's
worth it. The first three covers are totally finished and up on Amazon, so
to celebrate getting the job done, I'm holding a raffle and giving away 3 copies of the Fortune Bay Ebook "boxed-set," Welcome to Fortune Bay.
The boxed-set includes the first three books of the Fortune Bay series. (Check out the new covers below!)
Can't wait? CLICK HERE to go to the Rafflecopter page to enter.
And here are the new covers - Ta-Da!
I looked long and hard for images that would be inviting. Summer of Fortune looks the way I think the porch at the cabin would be.
My editor Stephanie thought the fence in the cover of book two said, "good neighbors," so, perfect.
And I really love the winter scene I chose for the cover of Home for Christmas. It's a little more Blue's log cabin than the Murphy cabin, but that works for this story.
I think these covers reflect the genre better than the single woman covers I had before. I loved those covers - at the time - but if you read books by Kay Correll, Judith Keim or the other authors Amazon groups my books with, you'll see that my covers looked nothing like theirs.
Does that matter? You bet it does.
If you think about when you are looking for a new book to sink into, you often just have the little Amazon thumbnail photo to go by. It has to communicate to you that this is a place you want to spend a few hours. It has to communicate what kind of story you are buying. I hope that's what these covers do. Let me know what you think in the comments below.
And don't forget to enter my raffle for a chance to win a copy of the trilogy, and by joining my mailing list everyone gets a free e-copy of the 100-page series prequel, Lake of Dreams.
This raffle is only on until Sunday, so don't wait!
I'll post the winners on my facebook page - https://www.facebook.com/JudithHudsonAuthor/ and contact them personally by email.
Great giveaway!
