Gull Harbor Cover Reveal - Kathryn Knight

Thankfully, I've had many inquiries about my next release...Gull Harbor is also a romance with paranormal elements, and I'm very excited about this book.  While I don't have a firm release date yet, I DO have the approved blurb and cover art to share!  Today I'm featuring the cover, by artist Rae Monet.  It's absolutely gorgeous, and it brings together the main elements of my fictional seaside town of Gull Harbor: the coastal waters surrounding the jutting arm of Cape Cod, and the isolated wilderness between the ocean and the bay, dotted with kettle ponds and woodlands.  While the house portrayed on the cover is not meant to be "the" actual haunted house in the book, it accurately conveys the town I've created in my mind...a place that, while beautiful enough to draw tourists from around the world in the summertime, grows eerily quiet in the off-season...a place where secrets may hide and ghosts may lurk...and a place where two people with a painful past find themselves unexpectedly thrown together to face dangers that extend beyond the paranormal.  I hope you enjoy the sneak peek at the cover - blurb to come soon!

  5. That's interesting> Other authors in the group are asked to pre-read?

    Okay, I'm from Texas, live in California and have lived in Florida, but I have no clue what a "kettle" pond is. Enlighten, please? LOL

    1. Hey Joyce,
      I was a reader for TWRP before I became published and still love it so much, I keep going. Never fear - we don't get given the names of the authors when we get the reads, so there is no prejudice before starting, but I remember a title I've read. I get such a thrill when its one of 'mine'. We have such a talented bunch of authors here! :)

  6. Thanks for coming by Joyce! I didn't know authors could be proof-readers either but I would love to sign up, sounds fun :) Kettle ponds were formed by the movement of glaciers a long time ago.

  7. An excellent question - from what I can tell, they are called that b/c the holes are deep and resemble a kettle as opposed to a more shallow pond. But there's not a lot of info on the origination of the name, just the way they were formed.
