Dear friends, I have missed you! I’ve been quite ill, but that’s a story for another time. Today we are here to celebrate the re-release of the newly revised and expanded Darling! Here is the cover reveal, created by the talented Jennifer Hrabota Lesser. She is an absolute delight, and isn’t this cover gorgeous? I love how it’s both sinister and beautiful. Jennifer captured the Darling ambiance perfectly and I couldn’t be happier! Eeeeeee!
Cherry thought Darling was firmly in her rearview; she was wrong.
