First things first this morning - HERE IT IS!  *as I hold my breath, waiting to hear what you all think* 


I've already mentioned that I adore my cover but what do you all think???  To me it's simple, classic, falls in line with my story and well, ROCKS!  But I tend to be a bit biased.  Imagine that.
