Cover reveal!!!

Happy Monday, readers!

IYCMI, we recently revealed the cover of my third book, The Amalfi Curse, coming April 2025!

TheAmalfiCurse

Shipwrecks. Sunken secrets. Forbidden lovers. And a coven of witches with unsurpassed power over the sea.

Set along the dazzling, sun-drenched Amalfi coast in both 1821 and present-day, The Amalfi Curse is full of magic, mystery, and--no surprise here--plenty of twists!

Quotes by Sarah Penner (?)

“First, there was trust. Then, there was betrayal. You cannot have one without the other. You cannot be betrayed by someone you do not trust ... what you have learned is the same heart-wrenching journey of every woman to whom I have sold a poison. And it is, indeed, the same path for me.”
― Sarah Penner, The Lost Apothecary
