Cover Reveal!

I’m so excited to finally be able to share the cover for my second novel, THE CURIOSITIES–a story of artists, secrets, inspiration, and how to reinvent your life with purpose and flair, coming in February 2019 from William Morrow/HarperCollins, with the same publisher and editor I worked with for my first novel, VINTAGE.  My publisher, agent, and I considered many different concepts, and even a title change, before deciding on this cover, and I’m just thrilled with how the final version turned out.

The setting for the novel is an artists’ colony run out of a lakeside mansion formerly owned by Betsy Barrett, a secondary character from my first novel, VINTAGE. So, although THE CURIOSITIES involves an all-new cast of characters, readers will get a glimpse of Betsy’s jet-setting, art-collecting life, as well as some cameos of other characters from VINTAGE. I’m thrilled to be able to finally share the cover with all of you. You can read more or pre-order here: https://amzn.to/2LIxfbd
