Cover Reveal: The Princess And I


February 14, 2017


   I love doing cover reveals - and I knew I couldn't pass up the chance to show off the gorgeous artwork for Rebekah Eddy's book, The Princess And I. The cover was created by Alea Harper and it looks just as beautiful as the book sounds!

   Megan is content with her life, despite her parents' death and her brother Malcolm's job that keeps him busy at the King's castle. But when she is offered the position as Princess Christine's lady-in-waiting, Megan is glad of the change in scenery and accepts it with the hope that she can spend more time with her brother. The promise from Malcolm of lessons in swordsmanship only adds to her enthusiasm.

   However, helping keep an eye on the emotional and excitable young lady proves to be much harder than becoming her friend. As rumors of war circulate the castle, Megan strives to encourage her new friend even as she tries to settle the doubts and fears in her own heart when her responsibility in protecting the Princess is put to the test. Follow the unwanted adventure which serves to teach her that loyal friendship, true love, and God's amazing grace will always triumph over revenge, greed, and hate.

Rebekah grew up surrounded by family members who appreciated and read good literature. First, she fell in love with the stories her parents read aloud to her from the Bible and books like The Chronicles of Narnia, Great Expectations, The Hobbit, and Anne of Green Gables. After learning to read on her own, she discovered other fantastic books which helped to build her ever growing imagination.

She completed her first written work at the tender age of eight and now uses it to humble herself whenever the need arises. The story did serve to show her that God had given her a desire to write, however, and from that moment on Rebekah has never looked back or regretted picking up her pencil and becoming an author.

This eighteen-year-old homeschool graduate lives in rainy Western Washington and is currently working on receiving her BA in English in order to further her passion for creating worlds on paper.

   *insert moment of flailing* Isn't it gorgeous? Alea never fails to impress with her artwork - I was super excited to show off this cover. I may or may not have squealed just a little when I saw it in the email Rebekah sent out. (also, it's green. I'm partial to green xD)

   What do you think of the cover? What's a book (other than The Princess And I) that you think has a gorgeous cover?

    I like the covers of the divergent book series by Veronica Roth. They are (i think) really cool looking...and the book is pretty good too. :)
