My fabulous friend and stellar writer, Ronie Kendig, has just released the last cover in her Quiet Professionals Series ~ FALCON ~ which releases in May 2015 (groan, groan, I know!) .
I’ve long admired Kirk DouPonce‘s design and creativity but this cover is terrific at showcasing this story.
That’s still not the best part – there is a great story behind this cover. As with the cover models for Raptor 6 and Hawk, “Falcon” is another authentic, or as we would say down under, dinky-di American hero – Marine Sergeant Gabriel Martinez, a double amputee and Purple Heart recipient. And a husband, father, and…you know, a paralympian on the side 😉 You will be hearing more about Gabriel from Ronie soon. Ronie is incredibly honoured to have him featured in this way. Knowing the heart Ronie has for those in military service, I just love that she has had this opportunity to highlight the sacrifices made by so many soldiers and their families, through her books and now on her covers.
If you are yet to read a Ronie Kendig novel then you are truly missing out. Get started now with Raptor 6 so you are ready to go when Hawk releases this November and Falcon next year!
TA~DA!

Wow. This pairing of heroism and fabulous design has been all “keepers” for this 3-book series. But *sniff* not until May?? At least we get ‘Hawk’ in between. 😉
Congrats on another dynamic cover, Ronie.

I like the Falcon cover because it’s so action-oriented–zipping down the rope, helicopter in the background, smoke in the air—you can just tell the story will be action-packed. And I’ve got to be honest—it’s not a hardship to look at the guy 🙂

I would like to tell Roni that as the mother of a US Marine who served 26 years and just retired That I am grateful for her dedication and honor that she has given to all our service members through her book covers and story lines. What a beautiful way to honor them and I know that it means a great deal to them and their families. That is what I love about the books and covers that are very well done.
Blessings,

I think the cover is exciting. I especially like the background with the helicopter and the special forces emblem overlay. The guy’s not bad either 🙂
