Cover Reveal: Freedom's Embrace

Hey, Y'all!
I'm super excited to reveal the cover of my next historical romance, Freedom's Embrace. It's coming soon from Ellora's Cave...within the next six weeks or so. I will announce the official release date as soon as I know it, on Facebook, Twitter, my website, and here at the blog. Stay tuned for that!


This is a super awesome moment for me, because  there was a time when I thought this book would never be published.  I wanted a publisher for this one. It needs and deserves a broad audience, and despite the very wonderful readers I have, my name alone won't do.


The story takes place in 1849, and the heroine, Naomi, is a runaway slave. The hero, Jonathan, is an octoroon doctor who passes for white. Something about this setup made some publishers very, very uncomfortable, hence a big pile of rejections for my beloved tale.


Finally, someone saw my vision Krishan Trotman @EC. Now the story will finally be told and I an so thrilled.... and a little emotional.


I think I made you wait long enough. :) Behold, my lovely cover for Freedom's Embrace.

I don't know about you, but I think it's the cat's pajamas. It's evocative, the font is pretty, my name is spelle correctly. Sweet!

Feel free to share the image on your various social networks, I know I will! Also, everyone who answers my question in the comment field or follows this blog will be entered to win a Kianna Alexander swag pack! Here's my question: What's your all time favorite book cover, and why? Good luck!


All the Best,
Kianna
