I’m happy to present the cover for Sarah Hegger’s debut novel…
Blurb
It’s 1153 in the period dubbed ‘The Anarchy’, King Stephen and Empress Maud are not the only ones embroiled in a fierce battle of the sexes.
Determined to control her own destiny, wilful Helena of Lystanwold has chosen just the husband to suit her purposes. But, when her banished guardian uncle attempts to secure her future and climbs through her bedroom window with a new husband by a proxy marriage, she understandably balks. Notorious warrior Guy of Helston is everything Helena swore she would never marry; a man who lives by the sword, like the man who murdered her sister.
This marriage finally brings Guy close to his lifetime dream of gaining lands and a title. He is not about to let his feisty bride stand in his way. A master strategist, Guy sets out to woo and conquer his lady.
Against a backdrop of vengeance, war and betrayal, Guy and Helena must learn to forge a united front or risk losing everything.
This is my very first cover and it marks one of those milestones for me as a writer. I’m still struggling to get past my name on the cover.
Feel free to tell me what you think.
Or drop by and see me on…

Great post, great author, really great reveal!
Thanks, Kim. Every one needs one of you but they can’t have mine because you’re taken.
I am a huge fan of Sarah’s writing and am looking forward to reading this!! Great cover and love the blurb!
Right back at ya, Jess
I love it.
Thanks, Karen. Still feeling a bit surreal.
His eyes, his eyes. Wow!
I totally agree and so right for Guy of Helston, who is (to put it politely) a little non-verbal
I can feel the tension just from your blurb! And what an intriguing cover 🙂 Every success. — katie o’boyle
Thank you, Katie. Hopefully I keep that tension going through the book, LOL
Morning Joanne,
Thank you so much for hosting me today. Your continued support is invaluable.
My pleasure, Sarah. 🙂
