Escapist cover for Brenda Novak’s newest HarperCollins novel

Meet Me in Italy

Georgie Stewart shapes a radiant, escapist cover for Brenda Novak’s newest HarperCollins novel.

Georgie's cover art adorns Meet Me in Italy, the new novel by the New York Times bestselling author, set to be published by HarperCollins in April 2026.

Designed as an invitation to escape, the illustration immerses readers in a warm Mediterranean palette, capturing the promise of a perfect summer read. Georgie’s composition blends romance, wanderlust, and an easy sense of adventure, in line with the tone and setting of the story.

The project is accompanied by an artist interview with Novak, offering readers a behind-the-scenes look at Georgie’s creative process and the journey that led to the final artwork.
