This is a leap of faith because the end of this story isn't yet completed - nor is the third book which this one wraps around... (That will be my November project, I guess!)
Also, this cover will change as soon as I get my good computer up and running since we're still in the process of settling into our new home in Wisconsin. (That computer is where my DAZ 3D is set up, so I can't do any models until then.) The font is also incorrect, so another thing that will change once I've got my good machine up again.
The background image is from PXFuel and will probably remain the background even when I've done the modeling.
