Covers (Cause they're fun to look at)














These are all covers for the same book. The first one is the original North American cover. The second is the French cover. And the third, the South American one.

Which one do you like the best? I admit I'm torn. I think they all look pretty great (though there is in fact no white wedding in the book). Opinions?

I like the American... although the South American looks hot, too. :-)

Hi Cynthia :) The American one is actually one of my all-time favorite covers - because it's so different and evocative.

What I like about the SA one is that they got the sensual tension really well. And that half-open shirt....;)

Hey Okie Amber! :) Hmm, yep, it is subtle isn't it? I have a really large file of the original jpeg and it's amazing the details in that cover - down to the exquisite rendition of the bracelet.

Nalini,
I like the american cover. It leaves more to the imagination, more sensual and also is a closer description to the theme of the book.

I think the American Desire cover. It jumped off the shelf right into my hands. It's one of my favorite covers, ever.

Congrats on your Cata win, btw!

Yvonne - I seriously have no clue. Sometimes the non-US covers use covers for other books, but other times you get covers that look like they were especially made for the book, like this one.

Hi Barbara! It does have the whole desert thing doesn't it? Which I love!!

Emma - Lol! Hmm, I don't know about the titles. Must find people who speak those languages to translate. I could do it on the internet but I'll probably get something weird *g*

Hi Alice! What? I won something?? I must know what?!

Nalini and Emma!
The spanish translation is not even close to the tittle in English. I like the English tittle better.
Craving Beauty in Spanish is translate into " Anhelando belleza or Deseando belleza"

Thanks for the translation, Barbara! I love the English title too. :)
