First of all, no fisticuffs on the page and let’s keep it civil! LOL! I’ve been thinking about how some of my fav actors have aged and decided it was time to have you weigh in on that. So two of my favs are Rob Lowe and Brad Pitt. I always thought of Rob as a pretty boy while Brad is a little more rugged. Both are still HAWT but I have to lean toward favoring Rob. What about you? Who do you think has aged better. P.S. – If I ever got to see One Last Night, my st**my military romance as a movie, both of these men would be fabulous to play the hero, Marine Lieutenant Trevor Mason. One Last Night is an emotional story about a man heading back to war, a father who blows off their dinner date, and Maggie Sullivan, the young woman who can’t leave him alone on his one last night before returning to duty.

They say you can’t choose a book by its cover and yet that’s the number one thing that readers look at when deciding whether to read a book. So, a cover is really important and when authors or publishers work on a cover, they have a ton of decisions to make. One decision is whether or not to show a hero’s face. Some readers don’t want to see the face because they want to create their own impression of the hero. Other readers just love seeing the hunky hero’s features on the cover. When I did the cover for The Prince’s Gamble, I opted to just tease you with the face because I wanted the prince to be a little mysterious especially since the heroine thinks he’s the main suspect in a human trafficking ring. For Brickell Avenue Ambush, the publisher thought it was important to show the hero’s face and he’s definitely like I pictured him! Ricky is very much a suit kind of guy since he’s a psychologist helping his family protect a woman whose ex has a deadly secret! I love both covers, but I wonder how you feel about the face/no face question. Do you like to fill in the features or do you like seeing the hero’s face on the cover?
