Today I have the distinct pleasure of unveiling the stunning cover for THE BRIDE GIFT, the upcoming debut from fellow Soul Mate author Sarah Hegger. You may recognize her from the Romance Weekly blog chats. Without further adieu, I'll let Sarah tell you all about her new book!

Book 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:
About Sarah Hegger: Born British and raised in South Africa, Sarah Hegger suffers from an incurable case of wanderlust. Her match? A hot Canadian engineer, whose marriage proposal she accepted six short weeks after they first met. Together they’ve made homes in seven different cities across three different continents (and back again once or twice). If only it made her multilingual, but the best she can manage is idiosyncratic English, fluent Afrikaans, conversant Russian, pigeon Portuguese, even worse Zulu and enough French to get herself into trouble.
Mimicking her globe trotting adventures, Sarah’s career path began as a gainfully employed actress, drifted into public relations, settled a moment in advertising, and eventually took root in the fertile soil of her first love, writing. She also moonlights as a wife and mother.
She currently lives in Salt Lake City with her teenage daughters, two Golden Retrievers and aforementioned husband. Part footloose buccaneer, part quixotic observer of life, Sarah’s restless heart is most content when reading or writing books.
Thanks, Sarah! Please come back to visit us when your book is released. We'd love to help you celebrate! The Bride Gift is set to hit Amazon on May 14th, 2014.
