Cover Reveal: A Tale of Two Centuries by Rachel Harris (and Giveaway)

Hello! Today I am honored to share with you the cover of Rachel Harris's second book, A Tale of Two Centuries. Take a look at the first book, My Super Sweet Sixteenth Century:

My Super Sweet Sixteenth Century (My Super Sweet Sixteenth Century, #1)

Gorgeous, right? I adored this book - and I usually dislike time-travel books! Believe me, you do not want to miss this series. I'm so excited for A Tale of Two Centuries! We were left with such a cliffhanger from the ending of My Super Sweet Sixteenth Century o.O

Anyway. HERE is the cover for A Tale of Two Centuries!


A Tale of Two Centuries by Rachel Harris
Book Two of the My Super Sweet Sixteenth Century series
Publisher: Entangled Teen
Publication Date: August 6, 2013

Summary:

Alessandra D’Angeli is in need of an adventure. Tired of her sixteenth-century life in Italy and homesick for her time-traveling cousin, Cat, who visited her for a magical week and dazzled her with tales of the future, Alessandra is lost. Until the stars hear her plea.

One mystical spell later, Alessandra appears on Cat’s Beverly Hills doorstep five hundred years in the future. Surrounded by confusing gadgets, scary transportation, and scandalous clothing, Less is hesitant to live the life of a twenty-first century teen…until she meets the infuriating—and infuriatingly handsome—surfer Austin Michaels. Austin challenges everything she believes in…and introduces her to a world filled with possibility.

With the clock ticking, Less knows she must live every moment of her modern life while she still can. But how will she return to the drab life of her past when the future is what holds everything she’s come to love?



BEAUTIFUL, RIGHT?! I love that the cover has swirls of blue instead of predominately pink. I think the pink fits the first cover well, but I dislike pink. YAY for blue!

About the Author:


As a teen, Rachel Harris threw raging parties that shook her parents’ walls and created embarrassing fodder for future YA novels. As an adult, she reads and writes obsessively, rehashes said embarrassing fodder, and dreams up characters who become her own grown up version of imaginary friends.

When she's not typing furiously or flipping pages in an enthralling romance, you can find her homeschooling her two beautiful princesses, hanging out with her amazing husband, or taking a hot bubble bath…next to a pile of chocolate. A Tale of Two Centuries is her second novel. 


Excerpt:

“The string goes where?” I ask incredulously, dropping the garment from my fingers as if it holds the plague. My heart rate pounds in my ears, already heightened from my shocking meeting with Austin earlier and the crowd in this land of chaos my cousin calls a mall. It is Saturday, apparently the day teenagers descend upon this enormous building, and we are shopping for clothes that will somehow strike a balance between what she calls dorky and what I call common courtesan attire.

“You heard me,” Cat says with a wicked smile and points to the scrap of fabric, causing me to flush even more.

Heat creeps into my scalp and if it were possible for hair to defy all wisdom and burst into flame, mine would. Holding this conversation in public as people bustle past us is horribly and wholly improper.

“It’s called a thong,” she clarifies with glee, “and by putting the string up there, you avoid ugly panty lines. Trust me, no one wants to see that business.”

I clear my throat and take a hesitant step toward the overflowing bins, peering down at the perplexing items again. “But surely it is uncomfortable to be lodged…in such a…spot?”

Cat shrugs. “You learn to live with it.”

  5. It's cute, but you would think with a title like that the people on the cover would be dressed up as such--one being from the 16th and the other from the 21st, or whatever centuries this new (awesome) book is about. Well, at least that is my opinion.
