My favorites are probably the hero-alone covers--if they get the hero right!
I do love my NINE-MONTH PROTECTOR cover with the pregnant heroine--but mostly because the DID get Detective Cooper Bellamy right, and, the palette of colors is just so soothing and gorgeous. It really conveys tenderness, shelter, protection to me--that tender ambiance is a rarity on Intrigues.
Diane and Karin--I'm with you... it can nag at my subconscious when I'm reading a book if the cover art doesn't match the character description on the pages. It won't stop me from buying the book, but it'll bug me ;)
Hey, gang-- A thousand apologies for not responding to your comments on Monday. I ended up having to deal with some family stuff that took most of the day, and I just plumb forgot!
Everything is fine now, but I wanted to drop by and apologize. I appreciate all the kind comments about my books and about Intrigue and its covers.
The covers really went through some changes, yes? I think it's an interesting glimpse of our cultural history and how what "sells" a book has changed over the years.
