I am thrilled
Esther’s cover design for volume one of my “Recollections & Reflections” is outstanding. It is both beautiful and easy to read. I am thrilled with the result and I receive many compliments from readers and potential buyers. I will certainly ask Esther to design the cover for volume two when the time comes.
Gorgeous covers!!
Esther is such a dream to work with! She went above and beyond making sure that I was happy and I have gotten soooo many compliments on my entire series because of the covers. I have recommended her to many authors and they’ve all been thrilled with her work as well. 10/10 she’s amazing!
Simply the best!
Esther is an amazing cover designer. She has done TEN covers for me and we will be starting out eleventh shortly. So trust me when I say she is professional, she is reliable, and every time we have worked together she has taken both my vision and my feedback, improved upon it (because I’m a better writer than designer lol) and given me something that is both professional and exceeded my expectations. I am not surprised every single one of these reviews is five stars, because her work ethic is such that she would never settle for less, for you or her. I highly, HIGHLY recommend.
Easy and timely
Esther made designing a cover painless. I initially hired someone else who couldn’t do what I needed done, which was really frustrating. Esther got it right every time and she is very timely to get things complete. I am using her for my next book.
A wonderful experience!
Meraki Cover Design created the cover for my debut novel Lunar Destiny. Esther brought my vision to life with an incredible eye for detail. We worked and reworked ideas until the cover was perfect and I’m so happy Esther took the time to ensure a quality product. Any questions I had were answered promptly and efficiently. The cover was finished faster than I anticipated and better than I could have imagined. Meraki Cover Design blew me away with the finished product and I’m so happy I entrusted my very first book to Esther. I can’;t wait to work on other covers with Meraki Cover Design to see what Esther comes up with next for my series.
Esther understood the assignment!!
I can’t say enough good things about Esther. She took my brain dump of random information/themes I wanted to be included on the cover (and even a hand-drawn design) and turned my chaos into a genuinely magical cover. I have so many miscellaneous comments and suggestions, and Esther listened to everything I had to say and incorporated the changes swimmingly. I 100% recommend having Esther design your cover, and I’m excited to see what she comes up with for the next four books in the series!!
It’s beautiful 😍
I’m so happy with how my cover came out! It’s really amazing to see my vision come to life! Writing a book is hard enough so it was really relieving to have Esther create the gorgeous cover for me. She’s so professional and knowledgeable. I can’t thank her enough for the beautiful work she’s done for me.
Easy to work with and very responsive
I was looking for a premade cover for a Christmas romance title and needed a quick turnaround. Esther had just what I was looking for that perfectly matched my story. Better yet, she said she could help me with creating additional covers for the series. She was very responsive and easy to work with. I’d recommend working with her without any hesitation.
Premades and custom - both are easy when working with Esther.
Honestly, every experience I’ve had working with Esther has been wonderful. Her premade covers that I purchased were lovely; and when I needed to add a fourth book that matched, the custom cover came out beautifully. I look forward to working with her again on future book projects.
Unbeatable value for money
We all know how important a book cover is. It’s crucial to the success of the book and the author. What isn’t stated alongside having an eye catching, genre specific book cover, is the importance of a working relationship between yourself and the cover designer. And I can declare with confidence that working with Esther at Meraki Cover Design is the perfect combination I’ve been searching for. Not only is her creative side astonishing, her communications are outstanding.
I will put my hand up and admit I’m very picky when it comes to my covers. And from previous experience, other designers usually offer only one or two edits to their creation. Thankfully, this wasn’t the case with Esther and Meraki Cover Design. When the package I purchased stated it was unlimited revisions that is exactly what happened when it came to getting mine just right. At no point did Esther complain or question the many alterations and suggestions I threw at her. She listened, gave advice to what worked best for the design and incorporated what was best practice for my book baby.
All I can say to you, other than highly recommending Meraki Cover Design as a brilliant service, is that if you’re torn between one or two other cover designers, please go and check to see how many revisions are allowed and how good the communications are. Because if you don’t check there’s a very good chance you’ll regret it and your pride and joy may suffer as a consequence.
What I received:
Value for money.
Exceptional communications.
Design brilliance.
If you want anything else more than stated above you’re asking for the impossible. Go ahead and buy with confidence.

Brought my vision to life!
Esther is an amazing artist. She was very patient as I attempted to explain the vision I had in my head, and she knocked it out of the park. She’s very responsive and was an absolute joy to work with. I love my cover so much, I cannot wait to publish! I’m so glad to have found a cover artist I can come back to for any subsequent novels I create!
Provided me a cover that completely blew me away!
Esther completely surpassed all of my dreams with the cover that she created me! She worked with me through my questions and provided me many proofs to let me choose from. I ended up going a complete opposite direction than what I originally had in mind and I couldn’t be happier! I can’t wait to work with her on future books because I know she will be able to make all my ideas and book covers come to life.
Offered a pre-made and made it fit my story perfectly!
Esther was so great to with with-kind, quick, and generous! I’m so glad to have discovered her and her covers. 🙂
Amazing to work with
Esther was fantastic from start to finish. She listened to and absorbed the vision I had for my women’s fiction manuscript and delivered above and beyond. She’s a pleasure to work with and so patient. I’ll definitely work with Esther again in the future!
Infertility Success Series Makeover HUGE SUCCESS!
I was so nervous about what a redesign would look like for my first book so that all 4 of my book series would look like a family. Esther showed me several different styles and one of them was just perfect! I loved how patient she was with my need to have a high attention to detail and helped me along the way with design decisions that incorporated my individual tastes. Would highly recommend her services to anyone looking for a book cover artist.
Esther is so amazing!
Esther is so amazing!! She’s so kind and understanding. She was patient with me and my lack of understanding and knowledge on how this all works. She thought of things I didn’t and really helped me! I love my cover!!! Will be using her for my next book cover!
Amazing to work with and a super talented designer!
Esther was such a joy to work with. She’s fast, personable, amazingly talented, and has a keen eye for detail. I’m so happy with my cover design and look forward to working with her again for future projects!
Fast, Friendly, and Freaking Beautiful!
Esther was so great to work with. She was very prompt and responsive, never left me hanging. She listened to my desires and created a cover that perfectly encapsulated my story. And it’s beautiful. I’m so pleased with the final product and my experience. Thank you!!! ❤️
Amazing!
Esther is amazing! She patiently worked with me and my cover artist to put together the most amazing cover I could ask for! She is very prompt and organized.
Esther is AMAZING!
Esther was incredible to work with. She is talented, driven, and dedicated. I absolutely love the book cover she designed for me. She was highly communicative and incredibly patient and professional through the process. I can’t imagine anyone being any better to work with than her. If I decide to write another book, I will ask her to be my book designer again – without hesitation. Five stars is not nearly enough stars for her. Thank you, Esther!
Incredible
Esther was absolutely incredible. We connected and almost immediately she dove into research on the latest, most popular covers. She gave me multiple covers to look at for samples and was willing to tweak them no matter what I was asking for. She was kind, prompt, and so wonderful as we worked together. I highly recommend her and suggest that anyone with a precious book-baby trust her fully. She’s wonderful and so creative – you won’t be disappointed. Did I mention how fast she was!? If you’re impatient… you’ll love her!
if you need a cover, contact her first!
she’s prompt, responsive, open to collaboration, and the project was done in a timely manner. excellent work!
Instant gratification
I purchased two of Esther’s wonderful Christmas covers and could not be more pleased. I am very happy with the results and will definitely come back to her for more covers. An excellent transaction all around.
Amazing
Esther has been amazing. She’s quick to respond and her design is EXACTLY what I was looking for.
Amazing illustrator and would 100% recommend
I worked with Esther on my 4th book and she is one of the most professional illustrators I’ve worked with, she is collaborative, very responsive, creative and willing to make edits as needed. I highly recommend her and hope to work with her on my next book.
A BEAUTIFUL PROCESS
This is my first time publishing a book. It is quite a daunting experience. I had a design in mind for my book cover. I conveyed my general idea to Esther. She is a great listener! She listened with great patience. I don’t want to say I was indecisive but she just gave me so many great choices. I am SO HAPPY with the final design and SO THANKFUL for Esther’s ability to “get inside my head.” I will have to write another book so we can work together again soon.
She is very professional
We went over a few things, and her first presentation was a hit with my family and me. And after a few touches, we have the cover of my dreams. I would recommend Esther to anyone looking for quick and professional work.
Timely, Prompt, and Visually Beautiful
I will return for more work in the future. The diligence and dedication to my vision was fantastic. That I could give my stipulations and they be met while I still receive a thoughtful cover has left me more than pleased. I cannot say enough for how happy I am with my first cover or the amount of communication given throughout the process. Thank you for the absolutely fantastic work.
A wonderful experience
Working with Esther was a wonderful experience, from beginning to end. She took my design idea and delivered, and then when I changed my mind about half of it, she found an even better idea and helped me bring the spirit of my story to life. Her patience, attention to detail, and her unwillingness to quit until it was just PERFECT, went above and beyond any other designer I’ve worked with. Even after I we were done she found a few additional subtle ways to make it pop. I adore my cover. I will be hiring her again, hopefully soon. I absolutely, positively, one-hundred percent recommend her for your cover work, and promotional material. You won’t be disappointed! Thank you Esther!
Amazing!
I just want to say thank you!! Without your expert eye and creativity, my cover would look like a two year old created it. I appreciate the extra steps you took to make the full wrap mix with the story line and allowing me to “stay married” to the photo I supplied. If anyone is hesitant to give Esther a try, hesitate no more! 5 Stars!!
So easy to work with
Esther brought the ideas for my fantasy romance cover to life. She listened to the ideas I had, offered a few to help nail down the ideas I had in my head, and hit it out of the park with an awesome design. She was easy and fun to communicate with and was so quick. If you are looking for a fabulous cover designer, look no further! I can’t wait to share my design.
Knowledgable, helpful and easy to work with
Esther was very helpful and gave me many insights about design and production. Her input including finding appropriate images was especially useful. I’ve been doing this for a while but she zeroed in on having my covers specific for my genre (thrillers). I will definitely be talking to her about reviewing all my back list covers. It really pays to get a professional opinion.
Very helpful and nice to work with
Esther helped me make my cover much better. She did a masterful job blending together the very different pictures that I’d picked out. I’d been struggling to make a nice-looking cover with my meager design skills.
I was so excited when I got my cover, I literally screamed!
I can’t say enough good things about Esther! She was so easy to work with, super responsive and open to all of my ideas about the cover design. I had a vague idea about the elements I wanted present on the cover and she took them and made something amazing. I really couldn’t believe it when I saw the awesome cover she had put together from my vague idea. She was super encouraging but also very realistic with my expectations. I know nothing about design and she was very upfront and helpful when it came to what could and could not be accomplished. I think the thing that impressed me the most was her turn around time. She was extremely efficient and in this day and age I feel it’s an extremely rare quality to find in someone. I really can’t say enough good things about my experience with Ester! I love love love my cover and I 100% recommend her for any of your design needs. I will be coming back for hopefully my second and third and beyond book covers!
Would 100% recommend!!
Esther took the idea I had for the cover for my vella and made it into a beautiful reality. She provided timely and helpful feedback about ideas that she thought would or wouldn’t work, making it a truly collaborative process. And the end result was perfect and exactly what I wanted! I would 100% recommend Meraki Cover Design!!
Esther helped me to bring my cover design home!
Esther helped me to bring my cover design home! I am writing and illustrating a children’s book and had a very difficult time with the cover. The cover is so very important for numerous reasons including first impression, thumbnail, accurately portraying content, and portraying the story’s vibe. Esther helped me by suggesting a different image for the cover, finding the perfect font that I sweated over finding for months, and some critical design decisions that helped the readers’ eyes go where I wanted them to go in the hierarchy of title, subtitle, and image placements. Esther is a consummate professional and responds very quickly to communications. She listens to your vision and helps make adjustments based on your needs and what is best for marketing the book. While I am not ready to unveil the book yet, she’ll be able to post the final cover design in summer of 2022. Meanwhile! Trust me when I say I have gone through my share of designers and will be coming back to Esther for all my needs! She’s the whole package. Thanks, Esther
