White Mountain – Carolina Rodriguez Fuenmayor

White Mountain – Carolina Rodriguez Fuenmayor (Illustration Ltd, illustrator, publishing)

Carolina Rodriguez Fuenmayor illustrates her second book in Ruby Jean Cottle’s Black River duology, commissioned by Simon & Schuster through Atria Books.

There’s a restless feeling running through Carolina Fuenmayor’s new cover for the final instalment of the Black River duology.

Made for Atria Books ahead of the novel’s September 2026 release, the piece leans into the tension at the centre of the story: desire tangled up with fear, loyalty shadowed by secrecy.

This is vampire fiction at its most emotional -  the cover settles naturally into the darker, romantic tone that has shaped the books from the beginning.

Svetlana Moldochenko – FairyLoot

Svetlana Moldochenko – FairyLoot (Illustration Ltd, publishing)

Svetlana Molodchenko crafts a spring-to-summer visual narrative across cover and edges for FairyLoot.

Svetlana was commissioned by FairyLoot to produce a dust jacket and digital edge illustrations for The Swan’s Daughter, bringing a sense of quiet enchantment to the exclusive edition.

Svetlana Moldochenko – FairyLoot (Illustration Ltd, publishing)

Her approach centres on the fragile shift from spring to summer, where soft florals and light-drenched tones echo the novel’s themes of power, survival, and love. Subtle references to the text are woven throughout, giving the artwork a layered, almost heirloom quality.

Extending the imagery across the book’s edges, Svetlana turns the object itself into a continuous scene, inviting the reader to step into a suspended fairytale moment.
