Comments about cover design
The cover design was to reflect the time element of the story. Time, uncounted and vast like the desert sand. The original photo was a Shutterstock image by Suzanne Tucker that was licensed and modified for the cover.

This one is a stand out. The colors are warm and inviting. My vote.
When I saw this cover I could not wait to dive in. That’s how much it spoke to me. I devoured it and quickly recommended to several of my friends. I can’t wait to read the next book in the series.
The book is a riveting read, but the cover portrays the timeless tale written beneath it.
Great cover and great book!
Aedan Byrnes weaves a magical tale that begins with the cover and keeps on going. The visual captured with this artistic translation could not have been more suitable. Well done 🙂
I freaking love this cover. This to me, stands out among so many others with it’s color and graphics. I made me want to turn the page and take the journey with the characters.
Such a perfect cover for the story!

I love this cover. I think it hits to the very heart of the story. What would you give for the chance with your match mate? How many lifetimes would you search?
We’ve all heard not to judge a book by its cover but this one draws you in. I love the warmth and it makes me want to let the sand sift through my fingers. The symbolism for the journey over many lifetimes is perfect.

This covers pulls you in. The warmth and depth of it mesmerizes me. The symbolism is a direct hit to the heart of the story.
As a history major the cover draws me in. It reminds me of another time when magic and fantasy were much more real then they are now. It also gives a sense of history and the past. The sundial being almost covered by sand makes it look as if someone has recently dug it partially out of the sand while on an archaeological dig. Once you read the book though, you find out that the sundial is a visual metaphor for Cyrenna’s journey to find Tynan and how her time is beginning to run out. I think it’s a brilliant cover.
Every time I look at this stunning cover it takes me back to the times and places that Cyrenna journeyed on her way through the Mist, in order to connect with Tynan. In all the various times throughout history. This Cover represents the Journey of time through the oracles mist so well. If you haven’t read it yet then please judge the book by its Cover and discover the treasures the story has to give you.
The book cover is intriguing! It makes you wonder what the book is about. When you read the book, it absolutely fits!
I’ve read this book and absolutely love this cover. It gives you a glimpse into the story that spans many lifetimes while asking how far would you go to find your perfect match, the other half of your soul. It is also a refreshing change from the numerous cookie-cutter covers that I’ve seen lately.
This is one of those rare times when you actually can judge the book by its cover. The warm colors and symbolism entice the reader to open the cover to discover a profound love story; rich in history and loyalty.
I absolutely love the originality of this cover, the rich and warm colors and the symbolism all work with what the story is about, And though they say never judge a book by its cover, this cover just invites a reader to pick up the book and see what story lies within.
I’ve read the book and the cover depicts the bases of the book. Seven brothers are deposited into the desert sand of another realm by an angry God. As immortals they have to endure the sands of time, as they move through the ages. While Tynan match mate fights to capture his heart as a mortal, having sacrificed her immortal soul for the chance to know the love of her one and only mate.
