I can see her shyness, and his care with her. In the book, he's always been her hero and her protector, though until now he's never thought of her in that special way...Christine Rimmerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10842946198044248663noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36709846.post-38350801513401881942007-09-26T15:09:00.000-07:002007-09-26T15:09:00.000-07:00I like the new one.

The older one is more flirtatious and bold... and I tend to be drawn to characters who have a bit more of the quiet strength than the bold loud brazen-ness.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00539286824195140523noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36709846.post-15940916554582683572007-09-26T07:19:00.000-07:002007-09-26T07:19:00.000-07:00Laura K, hot and sweaty, exactly.

Thank you!<BR/><BR/>Lois, I'm with you. As a rule, if there are characters, I prefer a photo-type image. <BR/><BR/>Michelle, love your interpretation of what the two covers evoke.

I'm glad you gave a synopsis because each book cover gave me a different interpretation of the story. And depending on the mood I'm in, one could appeal over the other.<BR/><BR/>The first cover had bolder colors, the poses were bolder, the title said it all.
