Romantic Fiction Cover Design

I’m getting ready to publish a new work of fiction and I need a cover that instantly signals “romantic” without slipping into tired clichés. Think warm, inviting colours, subtle tension, and a layout that will look just as good as a thumbnail on Amazon as it does on a printed shelf.

Here’s what I’ll hand over as soon as we start: the final title and subtitle, author name, back-cover blurb, ISBN, and trim size (6"×9"). From you, I’d like:

• Front, spine, and back cover—print-ready for KDP (300 dpi PDF with bleed)
• An e-book version (high-res JPEG/PNG)
• The layered working file (PSD or AI) so I can tweak text later if needed
• Proof that any fonts, stock photos, or textures are licensed for commercial use

The mood must stay firmly romantic—no horror shadows or sci-fi neon—while still feeling fresh and contemporary. If you prefer character illustration, photography, or a symbolic motif, I’m open, as long as the final piece makes readers feel they’re about to fall in love.

Please send a short note linking to two or three covers you’ve designed in a similar tone and let me know how many rounds of revisions you include. I’m eager to collaborate and launch this story with a cover that truly earns its place in the romance aisle.
