Cover Reveal: The Sound of Diamonds

I have known Rachelle Rea for several years now, and within that time have known her in the capacity as my fellow devotional-blog-writer, friend, critique-partner, and editor. Today, I am pleased to display the cover of Rachelle's debut novel, The Sound of Diamonds (Book One in the Steadfast Love Series) to be released later on this year by WhiteFire publishing. I had the privilege of reading an early version of the story and found the slightly unusual setting to be a refreshing break from your more common "historical romances." I hope you will join me in congratulating Rachelle on her contract and cover-reveal. I look forward to celebrating The Sound of Diamonds on June 15th of this year. :)

Synopsis: In Reformation-era England, a converted rogue wants to restore his honor—at whatever cost. Running from a tortured past, Dirk Godfrey knows he has only one chance at redemption.

An independent Catholic maiden seeking refuge in the Low Countries finds herself at the center of the Iconoclastic Fury. Jaded by tragedy, Gwyneth’s only hope of getting home is to trust the man she hates, and she soon discovers her poor vision is not the only thing that has been blinding her.

But the home Gwyneth knew is not what she once thought. When a dark secret and a twisted plot for power collide in a castle masquerading as a haven, will the saint and the sinner hold to hope…or be overcome? When Dirk’s plan fails, could all be lost?

Bio: Rachelle Rea plots her novels while driving around the little town she’s lived in all her life in her dream car, a pick-up truck. As a freelance editor, she enjoys mentoring fellow authors in the craft. A homeschool graduate and retired gymnast, she wrote the Sound of Diamonds the summer after her sophomore year of college.
