Hello fellow romance readers,
That's a fun video, isn't it?
Now a days, most covers are fashioned by taking fabulous photos from shoots already done and having a cover designer fix it to fit a specific book. One of the funnest things about being an indie romance author is browsing through tons of luscious photos and choosing out the one that's the best match for my book. Yes, part of my job is looking through photos of hunks and hotties until I say, “Okay, I’ll take that one.” And then I buy him…I mean...I buy the cover photo. It's a hard job but someone has to do it.
I use to put women by themselves on some of my covers but now I go for a man alone or a couple.
As romance readers seem to like seeing a brawn, ripped man much better…whether alone or with the heroine. I like that better too. And it also communicates to the reader that as part of a great story there are some sizzling love scenes as well.

Book blurbs and book covers are considered in the publishing industry as a whole to be some of the most important selling points of a book.
Here are some of my favorite covers of my books and their blurbs.
