Well I'm just tickled. I feel so fortunate that Harlequin really listens to the author's thoughts when designing covers. The Killer Cargo book that comes out this month has a great cover that captures the mood of the story. They say covers really sell the book. So what do you like in a cover? Photos? Simple drawings? Elaborate pictures with clues about the book? Do tell.

Bright, cartoony colors. And dogs.

I like it when, in hindsight, you realize there was a clue in the cover art.

You said to comment on your blog and you would give a second entry into contest.
I love visiting your site every month.
The quote I am thinking came from Benjamin Franklin.
Have a great day.

I really like your cover! I like covers with items or scenery or even cats on them. I don't like to see the characters in the book because they never look the way I want them to look! lol

Hi, I'm leaving a comment to get entered twice into your Amazon drawing! Good idea, by the way.
Ok, so this is what I appreciate about the cover is that it is colorful and dramatic. It draws one into read.
