Covers for upcoming releases:

The Lady of the Rivers by Philippa Gregory.  This is the UK cover - release date September 15, 2011.

Jacquetta, daughter of the Count of Luxembourg and kinswoman to half the royalty of Europe, was married to the great Englishman John, Duke of Bedford, uncle to Henry VI. Widowed at the age of nineteen she took the extraordinary risk of marrying a gentleman of her house-hold for love, and then carved out a life for herself as Queen Margaret of Anjou's close friend and a Lancaster supporter - until the day that her daughter Elizabeth Woodville fell in love and married the rival king Edward IV. Of all the little-known but important women of the period, her dramatic story is the most neglected. With her links to Melusina, and to the founder of the house of Luxembourg, together with her reputation for making magic, she is the most haunting of heroines.





The Other Countess by Eve Edwards.  Young Adult.  US release date July 12, 2011 (released in the UK in 2010).

England, 1582


Ellie—Lady Eleanor Rodriguez, Countess of San Jaime—possesses a worthless title, but her feisty spirit captivates the elite of the Queen's court—especially the dashing new Earl of Dorset.

William Lacey, Earl of Dorset, has inherited his father's title—and his financial ruin. Now Will must seek a wealthy bride and restore his family's fortune. If only he hadn't fallen for the beautiful but penniless Ellie. . . .

Sparks fly whenever Ellie and Will are together, but circumstances—and the conniving interference of others—threaten to keep them apart.

    The Lady of the Rivers cover is excellent. I love it. However, it is different than her others. I'm kinda surprised by it.

    That PG cover is amazing! And I agree with the above comment, it's way different from her other covers. The Red Queen was a hideous cover. Ugly chick. LOL. This one is nice.

    The model they used for the cover of PG's book looks very familiar. I swear I've seen her in a movie or something.
