I remember reading this book when I was at school (I pretty much lived in the library and the sci-fi section was my idea of heaven <3) so it would have been 1985-ish through to 2000-ish?
But literally the only thing I can remember is the book cover *facepalm*

I’m pretty sure it was a reddish or pinkish colour (but honestly, don’t take that as gospel, I could be mis-remembering it, I was only a teen at the time).

The cover had a huge galaxy like Andromeda or the Milky Way galaxy in the sky of a planet (the pov was from the planet looking at the galaxy in the sky) and it was never truly night because the galaxy was so bright all the time. I remember a character commenting on how it was never fully dark because the galaxy was so bright.

It was either a hardcover, or large library edition paperback. I feel like it was a well known sci-fi author of that time but can’t remember a name.

It looked sort like the style of this book cover…

…with a full galaxy in the sky of a planet, but it was more like daytime, and more of an 80’s-90’s art style, and the galaxy was larger in the planets sky, also the planet had atmosphere, no spacesuits needed.

If this book cover is familiar to anyone, please help me find it again?

I read this book somewhere between 2005 and 2012. I don’t know if it was published before this time period but definitely not after.

The book is a duopoly. It is a historical fiction with a romantic plot central to the storyline. The setting is not modern and felt more medieval. The main female character was the daughter of a nobleman and the love interest was of more common birth. They fell in love but for some reason couldn’t be together. That’s all I remember from book one unfortunately.

Book 2 starts with the main guy character (having felt betrayed by the female love interest) leaving and going back to Ireland or Scotland (I always get those confused in stories). The main female character follows him and tries to win back his love and while in Ireland/Scotland she stays with his family. They fall in love
With her and welcome her but it takes the whole second book to win back the affection of the male love interest as he is pretty cold to her.

I just remember the romantic plot line of these two books being amazing! I know it’s not much to go on but I have hope. Thank you!
