OH MY GOSH......Isn't it so BEAUTIFUL!!!! *FANGIRLING*
When I first got a glimpse at the cover of Morning Glory my mouth dropped to the floor. I think this is one of the most beautiful covers I have seen in a long time! The color scheme is gorgeous, all of the colors compliment each other so well. And can we just talk about the model's hair! I envy it. I am also a redhead, but would love my hair to be this shade of red. I can keep rambling about the cover, but I'll move on. I am also anxiously awaiting what Morning Glory will be about. Amber is keeping us in suspense. (Well played, Amber!) But I can assure you with the talent that is Amber Stokes, Morning Glory will be a MUST read!
I loved Bleeding Heart and I can't wait to read Morning Glory!!!

  2. Ha! I envy this hair color, too, Alyssa! I don't have naturally red hair but do color it auburn and LOVE it... however because my natural shade is so dark, it's hard to notice the "red tones." Ah, well! I'll just dream it's this color. ;)

    ...I agree; well played, Amber. Keeping us in suspense like this! ;)

    1. Well, I'm not a natural redhead either. Ha, I color mine as well!

    2. LOL, Rissi! I'm sure your hair is gorgeous. :) I actually had Lena add some reddish tones to the model's hair for Forget Me Not, as I refer to Elizabeth's hair shining red in the light... I think darker hair with some red tones is lovely!

      And we're all in suspense, hehe! I'm eager to know what happens to Myghal, too! ;)

  3. OK, I just LOVE this post and the comments! It's an absolute joy to have someone fangirling about my latest cover - thank you for that! :) I'm right there with you about the colors. I fell in love with them even in the initial stages of the design, when there were still watermarks on the pics and all that!

    Regarding the red hair... LOL. Even the model didn't have this shade of red originally. ;) You can see the original pic in cover reveal post. But I so agree that it's gorgeous, and I've always admired people with curly/wavy hair! Mine is the straightest it comes. ;) And sadly, it can't hold a curl for very long!

    As for keeping you in suspense... I'm keeping myself in suspense, too, haha! I'm so glad you're looking forward to reading it, regardless. :) Can't wait to share it with you, and I appreciate your vote of confidence!

  4. Hi, Alyssa,

    Thanks so much for the lovely post on Amber's cover. So glad you like the design. It was truly a pleasure to work on, but then it's always a pleasure to work with Amber!

    Thanks to Ganise too and *waves to Rissi*!

    I have an affinity for red hair too. Alas, I have never been a natural redhead. I do have a few in-the-sun red highlights though! ;)
