COVER REVEAL - INIQUITY by Melody Winter


It gives me great pleasure, amid squeals of excitement, to reveal the cover of INIQUITY!!!
My cover designer, Amalia Chitulescu, has done a wonderful job of capturing the whole book.
 



Publication date: October 25th, 2016
Genre: New Adult, Dark Romantic Fantasy

 
Book Blurb:
Athena Harrow is about to turn twenty-one, but there will be no celebration. What is there to celebrate when the world is ruled by demons?

She hates the darkness the demons brought with them and longs for the light to return to the world—a world she only vaguely remembers. The people in her forest village blindly accept the life the demons forced upon them, even tolerating the yearly ascension ceremony where all the girls who have turned twenty-one are either sent away to serve the Master Demon or left in the village and forced to procreate.

But Paymon, the assigned village demon, selects a different role for Athena, a role that pits her against the village. While she adapts to her new life, Erebus, a younger, more powerful demon, arrives, and Athena must play a dangerous game with his emotions in return for information about the demon’s reign of darkness.


As Athena’s dreams of restoring the light begin to fade, her life with Erebus takes an unexpected turn, and this time it’s her life being put to the test. Who is playing who?

Set in the forest around Buttercrambe in North Yorkshire, England, INIQUITY explores the frightening, darker side of romance and the uncontrolled emotions it can unleash.

About Me:
Growing up, Melody showed a natural ability in art, a head for maths, and a tendency to write too long English essays. Difficult to place in the world when she graduated, she pursued a career in teaching, but ended up working in finance. Melody is convinced the methodical times she spends working with numbers fuel her desire to drift into dream worlds and write about the illusory characters in her head.
Melody Winter lives in York, North Yorkshire, England with her husband and two sons. When not dealing with football, rugby, and a whole plethora of ‘boy’ activities, she will be found scribbling notes for her stories, or preparing for another trip to the nearby beaches at Scarborough and Whitby. With an obsession for anything mythical, Melody revels in reading and writing about such creatures, and creating her own.

SILENCE IS GOLDEN

Today, the 15th September, marks my coming out of the editing cave that I've hidden in for . . . ohhh . . . let's say, quite a few months. I've been shocking at keeping things up to date because I've wanted to give my readers the best I could with INIQUITY.





I've put myself under enormous pressure to get this book sorted because it's my first self-published adventure. I feel like I've got to get this right, every step of the way. I've already made a few mistakes, the first--not keeping everyone updated with what I'm doing!

So, as an apology for my silence, I have decided to send out the prologue of INIQUITY, YES another prologue, to all subscribers of my mailing list/Newsletter. (If you're not on my list then please sign up here: Melody Winter Newsletter)






Things are busy in the lead up to the release, so I thought I'd list what's happening:

15th September: INIQUITY available to pre-order at a reduced price until release day when it will be at standard price.

amazon UK:    Link to Iniquity on amazon UK

amazon US:    Link to Iniquity on amazon US  

27th September: Iniquity cover reveal day

29th September: Iniquity video trailer revealed

Teasers posted throughout October.

25th October: Iniquity release day.

It would be great if you could join me on these days, and hopefully share in the craziness that will unfold. Grab you pre-order whilst you can, and I'll see you soon.
