It’s time for Ka Waylon to finally face her deepest fear in the Land of Water.

With Sloan by her side, Ka searches for the Water stone. But when they arrive in the Land of Water, Ka quickly learns that not all her family is keen on her success. The Water queen is frighteningly beautiful and dangerously narcissistic. And intent on keeping Sloan trapped in her watery world.

In order to rescue him and find the stone, Ka will find an unlikely ally that just may save her—and Sloan’s—life. Time is of the essence as Sloan falls under the Water queen’s spell, and the Imminent Darkness prepares to unleash its biggest evil yet on the colonists of Xon 9.

. . . and added to The Elementals series.

➜ I have not added the cover from your author website because it doesn't appear to be a final cover. (Hovering the mouse cursor over ithe image displays this: “Water Alternate Cover Idea 2”.) Better to get the cover from Amazon once published.

Jennifer Kelly (jenniferlkelly) | 24 comments Thank you, but it will be the exact same file as that is the name I went with. Do I really need to change the file name to have the word official for you to use it? I am the one who designs, publishes, uploads and maintains all of my files, sites, and accounts. Including uploading to Amazon through Createspace.

Jennifer Kelly (jenniferlkelly) | 24 comments I also want my advanced readers to easily find it and the cover has generated a lot of positive buzz on my Instagram. It seems silly to rename the file, take down the file on my website and then reupload a new image file simply because of the name I used for the file.

Codex | 3400 comments #3 ⇢ #4:
All we need is confirmation that the cover is final. (Once a cover is uploaded to GR it can’t be changed without a lot of red tape—trying to avoid that.)

Based on your confirmation, the cover from your website has been uploaded for both hardcover and paperback.

Jennifer Kelly (jenniferlkelly) | 24 comments Thank you so much for understanding. I'll rename files accordingly before uploading to my website in the future.

Actually, the file name itself is essentially irrelevant (and should be). In this case, the main issue was the future publication date, which—together with the file name—appeared to suggest that the cover might not be final. Your confirmation cleared that up. :-)
