Today I want to share a gorgeous cover for a lovely book by a wonderful lady. (Yes, I mean all those adjectives). I met the sweet Erika through the King's Daughters' Writing Camp and I'm so happy! She's such a blessing. <33
Erika's book Promise's Prayer (Truth from Taerna Book 1) is getting a second edition this fall, complete with new formatting, polish, and a brand-new cover! This is the first book in a clean Christian kingdom adventure series.
Synopsis:
He promised to save the land. She received a divine calling. But how can mere prayer quench his restlessness and her fears?
Walking behind a plow day in and day out gets boring for a nineteen-year-old who longs for nothing more than adventure. In the midst of the rampant lawlessness and love of pleasure that drive their country, Kaelan Ellith longs to make a difference. When a promise at his mother’s deathbed gives him the impetus to do just that, he’s off to the capital city to bring back the knowledge of Adon Olam. But despite his natural leadership skills, his schemes keep going awry, and lost people keep passing into eternity without hope. How can he ever keep such an impossible promise?
Shy and devoted Carita Kostan spends her days seeking Adon Olam, raising her bookish orphaned sister, and helping others. Carita knows the voice of Adon Olam, and she desires nothing more than to follow His calling: “Love. Serve. Pray. Persevere.” Yet how can she minister His love to her neighbors when her soul is simultaneously tormented by their unmet needs and handicapped by her own paralyzing fears?
When the true nature of the promise and the call begins to surface, Kaelan and Carita just might discover how saving the world is entirely different than they imagined. . . if they have the humility and the courage to receive it.
Doesn't it sound absolutely amazing?? I just can't wait to read it!!
