I've been going through my published books and, where necessary, creating a much improved cover.
I've done this now for Lady Ann's Holiday, the prequel to our current serial, Lady Ann's Folly!
In Lady Ann's Holiday, the beautiful but petulant Ann Neville gains possession of a pendant that has the power to swap her body with somebody else. It seems the perfect way to get out of a tedious trip to her grandmother's but clearly Ann has a deeper ulterior motive.
When it gets down to it, she yearns to experience life as a commoner and as a man with no propriety to hold her back. She longs to speak badly and have her wicked way with any strumpet who takes her fancy. And so the story begins as Ann trades lives with Burt Harper, the strapping stablehand on her father's estate, but as she starts to shag her way through Yorkshire's population of available slags she also begins to get some pretty heavy-handed lessons on the downsides of being a servant.
The longer Ann stays in Burt's body, the more like him she becomes, and as her education, intelligence and breeding start to slip away, Ann becomes increasingly confused about her feelings. Part of her hates how trapped she feels in her new subservient life, but part of her...
... Part of her, quite frankly, gets off on it and wants to take it to its limit, wallowing in her new lower status and limited prospects.
But what of Burt?
Burt meanwhile is cast into the life of the beautiful Ann and must learn the manners of a titled lady as quickly as he can. He is a fish out of water but it isn't long before he too becomes acclimatised to his new form and life and starts to warm to being a cultured lady.
It is a life he would never have chosen, but when he meets the charming Lord Hurley, he even starts to wonder if he might like to stay this way forever.
Lady Ann's Holiday is the epic journey of these two characters as they explore their new lives in perhaps greater detail than any other bodyswap story before or since. If you're following Lady Ann's Folly then you absolutely HAVE to read this. It's got a nice spatter of rumpy pumpy, some good explorations of gender change, a slow creep of personality change, some nice vocal transformation and accent alterations and of course the potent drop and climb in status of the two protagonists.
It's available on Amazon, Kobo and Smashwords.

Thanks Rob. It is about a hundred times better than the crappy old one.
DeleteI like this picture it fits Ann perfectly
ReplyDeleteYeah. It has her beauty and aloofness as well as her thoughtful yearning for a new life.
