a special place for women
I instantly was drawn to the cover for A Special Place for Women by Laura Hankin. The pink tones, monoline illustrations, and glowing lights immediately inspired a vision of exactly how I wanted the branding of this book to go. This novel is set in New York City, and involves a secret society of women who have a mysterious hidden secret. I created multiple promotional materials for this title, which you can find below.

A book club kit is available to readers to get book extras like a letter from the author, q&a’s, playlists, and more.
