Make Your Book Extra Special

Unique designs for special editions

Level up the look of your romance novel with our special print options.

Edge printing has been the talk of social media and 48 Hour Books happily offers the service. Our edge printing machine prints your colors and designs directly on the cut edges of the paper for clean, polished look. Collectors will cherish your special edition romance book with printed edges.

Diamond 3D covers make your art jump off the book cover. Captivate readers to pick up your book with bold foil book cover artwork that will shine from the shelf. Choose from eight different foil colors or add shine with our Clear Coat or Smart Texture options. You can add Diamond 3D directly to your book cover, or to a dust jacket. Select one feature or combine multiple to make a special edition that is uniquely yours.

Custom Dust Jackets are a great addition to any hardcover book. Our romance book dust jackets feature full color printing on one or both sides and can be enhanced with our Diamond 3D printing options. Add information about the author or a summary of your book on the dust jacket flaps to capture potential readers and draw them in to your story with a teaser of the content inside.
