Cover Reveal: Shadow of the Mark by Leigh Fallon


Hello lovelies,
So today I have a special treat for you! You know I really adore Leigh and her writing and today she's letting me be part of her special cover reveal. First, meet Leigh!



I started out life in South Africa. A year later
my parents moved home to Dublin, Ireland. When I was older and realized myparents had moved me from exotic Durban, to sedate Rathfarnham, Dublin 16, Iwas rightly ticked off.Giving up lions for sheep, I grew up in the foothills ofthe Dublin Mountains where I went to a convent school and had to contend withuniforms, gabardines, and nuns. When not dodging the beady glare of  the Sistersof Mercy, I was devouring every book I could get my hands on.I traveled all over Europe while working in banking andtreasury, but I gave up my calculator in favor of a keyboard and haven?tstopped writing since. My first book, Carrier of the Mark, was published byHarperTeen in 2011.Our home is in Cork in the south of Ireland, but we?re currently on loanto Massachusetts in the US where I continue to write books about  magic, ghosts,and romance, with a bit of Irish flavor.


About the coverI know, there's no mistaking it. This is definitely a Carrier Series  cover, but that was the intention. After the amazing reception to the  cover of Carrier of the Mark, HarperCollins wanted Shadow's cover to  be instantly recognizable. And it is, but the new darker color palette  reflects the darker tone that this installment brings, and the pink  and purple really make it pop. I love it and think HarperCollins have  done another amazing job. I hope you like it too.


Now take a look!!


Life for Megan Rosenberg just got a lot more complicated.

While she evoked the air element, and her feelings for Adam
intensified, a web of lies, deceit, and betrayal has been spun around  her.  With the Order tightening its hold, and the
reinstatement of the Mark Knights, Megan has more questions than  answers as the
Marked Ones grow in strength.

New people arouse suspicion, the DeRises start behaving
strangely, and Megan begins to unravel a destiny shrouded in mystery.   It?s a destiny the Order has struggled to hide,
and a destiny someone from the past?far in the past, has already laid claim to.

Alliances will be made, and friends will be lost, as the
Order?s dark secrets are revealed by the very thing they sought to destroy.
