🌈 Hey Reading Rainbows! It’s time for our first artist reveal for the July Roll for Romance crate! First up is Dani (@/Danisaur.Art) who illustrated the endpapers for The No-Girlfriend Rule by Christen Randall (@bycrandall)!

How excited are you to see the new endpapers?

From the artist:

Dani Figueroa is an American graphic designer based in the Netherlands, who specializes in stylized repeating patterns. She loves finding the small pieces of books or games that represent the whole and bringing them together with bright color palettes. When she's not doodling, she can usually be found with her nose in a book!

Synopsis: The era of magic was once thought to be a myth, but after the Reemergence ushered forces both dark and light into the mundane world, it has since become a harsh reality. Now those affected by this strange power—a specialized group of Empowered, called Jokers, known collectively as Cardplay—must protect their world from the darkness that threatens to consume it, all the while fighting for equality in a society clinging to normalcy.

But the Reemergence was only the beginning.

When another influx occurs on the seventh anniversary of that fateful event, an unfortunate encounter at ground zero lands Iori Ryone, a teenage boy in possession of a corrupt and legendary magic, in the care of recent Joker graduate Ellen Amelia Jane. From him, she learns the Reemergence may not have been the inevitable natural disaster it first seemed.

Someone is trying to tear down the barrier that separates the magical realms from the mundane. The question is, can Cardplay stop them before it’s too late?
