"Unwritten Melody" Cover Reveal!

I'm so excited to share with you all the cover of my upcoming YA contemporary novel, UNWRITTEN MELODY! (Which releases in less than a month ... Nov. 10th!) 

This is one of my favorite parts about being an author. It's when the project you've spent hours upon hours upon hours (upon hours!) working on officially has a face. And it's then that you realize -- the story and characters you first brainstormed over five years ago? They're not going to remain stuck in your imagination only for much longer.

Isn't it beautiful?! I may or may not have kept my eyes glued to this cover since I first received it. The cover artist did a fabulous job at perfectly capturing the essence of the book. Thanks so much to the team at Clean Reads for the hard work you've put into this project! Also a huge thank you to my readers and everyone who has already shown your support for the release of UNWRITTEN MELODY. It's almost time to share this story to you! {Make sure you're signed up for my mailing list so you can receive updates!}

What others are saying ...

"Troubled musician James helps caged-bird Cassie find her voice in this moving story of first love and the redemptive power of creativity."  

- Laurel Garver, YA Christian fiction author of Never Gone and Almost There

"In this lyrical, coming-of-age novel, Hall deftly captures the tension found in longing for freedom and learning to embrace who you were made to be. The dreams, struggles, and daily lives of Cassie and James ring true to the teenage experience, while themes of purpose, love, and redemption harmoize to leave readers feeling inspired and encouraged to never give up hope. Unwritten Melody is sure to become a favorite, like a song you'll want to keep on repeat." 

- Anna Schaeffer, YA Christian fiction author of All of This

"Unwritten Melody pulls on your heart strings in all the right places. Tessa Emily Hall delivers a poignant story of two teens' love for music and struggles for independence. She beautifully blends themes of love and trust with perceived realities and discoveries of the truth. This is a story you will want to read again and again." 

- Katy Kauffman, award-winning author, Refresh Bible Study Magazine editor, and co-founder of Lighthouse Bible Studies

"Realistic and relatable, UNWRITTEN MELODY takes readers on a satisfying journey of self discovery as the characters struggle through the confusion of first love and their fear of striving for their dreams, and attempt to identify the unique songs of their hearts." 

- Betsy St. Amant, multi-published author of Confessions of a PK, Return to Love, and A Valentine's Wish
