Deeply, Desperately

Ooooh, I got my cover flats in the mail yesterday. The cover for DD is just gorgeous. The sunset colors pop, pulling me in (and hopefully lots of other people too!). The title, the window framing Lucy and Sean, my name, and the little pot of flowers are all embossed which is very cool.

The tag for this book: Sometimes love can be lost and found.
(On the updated cover, this is written on the front cover, in the upper righthand corner.)

Here's the back cover copy:

The irrepressible star of Truly, Madly is back in business. This time, Lucy Valentine will go to the ends of the earth to find true love for her clients...and maybe even herself.

Lucy wants to breathe new life into her family's Boston-based matchmaking company. But how? Even though she comes from a long line of ancestors blessed by Cupid with psychic abilities, a freak accident left Lucy with only one special skill: finding things. Car keys, socks in the dryer, needles in haystacks...and now, in a stroke of professional genius, lost loves!


It's not long before Lucy's on a winning streak, helping old flames reunite and create new sparks. Business is booming. But when Lucy finds herself involved in a possible case of murder, she realizes she's in too deep. Enter Sean Donahue. Lucy's handsome fire-fighter-turned private eye neighbor, Sean is just the man she needs to help her on the job. Could he also be the man she's been looking for all along? When it comes to Valentine, Inc., falling in love is always serious business...


I'm really excited to see this book hit shelves (August 3rd--now available for pre-order!). It was truly a labor of love to write it.

  5. I love this cover and August can't come quick enough for me.

    I like that the colors pop out and it is very appealing.

    I'm trying to remember if you had input in the color scheme.

    I just realized something, on the first book cover, Lucy opened the door and in this one, they appear to be kissing. I can't wait to see what the third cover will be.

    Have a good Tuesday.

  12. Thanks, everyone! The funny thing is, doesn't this cover scream summer??? Well, the book takes place at Christmas. LOL. But, I love the cover, so I'm not complaining.

    I'm *fairly* sure there will be ARCs--just not sure how many.

  13. I can't wait for this to come out! I love the colors on this as well! And the book is coming out during the summer, so it matches, even though it takes place at Christmas! Christmas in August! :) And I love the pink brick building!
