Archer’s Lady: Awesome cover OR THE MOST AWESOME COVER?

Posted on January 25, 2012 by  

Guys, I’m in love.

IN. LOVE.

Archer's Lady
The hat! The steampunky, recently fired guns! The angry face! The mysterious gunslinger demeanor!  The PROXIMITY TO EXPLOSIONS.

It’s Archer, in art format. And I’m. In. Love.

Thank you thank you THANK YOU to cover artist Kanaxa, who can not get more awesome.  Look at what she’s given us:

Wilder's MateHunter's PreyArcher's Lady
Wheeee! And in honor of that beautiful cover, how about an advance peek of the Archer’s Lady blurb?  This is NOT final, so I’m not going to put it on our website yet…but it’ll give you an idea of what the story is about.

Archer has a grim future ahead of him. Accused of betraying the Bloodhound Guild once, his only chance at regaining the trust of his fellow hounds is to earn their respect, one dangerous job at a time. Crystal Springs may be the worst yet. The town has been deserted by all but the poor and the desperate, but the vampires stalking the edges of the settlement haven’t closed for the kill.  Now Archer has to figure out why.

Someone is clearly hiding secrets, and no one has more of them than Grace Linwood.  A professional liar, she’s been masquerading as a border schoolteacher for so long she’s almost fallen for her own con.  The frontier was supposed to be her chance at a respectable life, but now the cowardly part of her wants to flee.  When Archer catches her considering a run for safety, she knows it’s only a matter of time until he sees through her charade.

Both in search of atonement, they become allies in the quest to uncover the mysteries of Crystal Springs. But every knot they unravel ties them closer together.  Grace soothes a hunger Archer didn’t know he had.  Archer awakes a passion Grace didn’t know she wanted.  They both know their pasts are too shattered for a hopeful future—until their investigation uncovers a secret about the Bloodhound Guild.  One that could make betraying the Guild the only path to redemption.        

I’m so excited I’m dancing! It’s a sleepy sort of dance, but dancing all the same.

    When I saw this on Twitter yesterday I couldn’t get my eyes off it. The other covers have been great. Archer’s Lady blows them away. The pose is just so menacing in all the right ways. :D

    Ok, this is the first time I post a comment as Kanaxa on someone else’s blog, but dudes, really, you’re making me blush and warm and all fuzzy inside. I am so excited with how this series is looking so far.

    Can you believe I obsessed for HOURS (literally!) just working on the hat?! I’m thrilled some of you mentioned the hat! LOL

    Moira, keep them Bloodhounds coming!

    You guys always have such awesome covers! I loved Hunter’s Prey sooooo much! I’m so glad that I won an ARC of it…thanks again! But since I am a spoiled fan, I wanted to know if Merrick’s Destiny will be available on Amazon for the Kindle? I see that it is on All Romance ebooks now (because I’ve been compulsively checking for it) but I was curious about if it would be available elsewhere. I’m so glad that it’s finally up at ARE though, because I am really excited to read it! You guys have me addicted to the Bloodhounds (and all your other series)!

    You guys are amazing authors and Nat/Kanaxa you are an amazing artist!
