Elk Grove, Ca

For you what constitute a great Book cover?

I'm a very visual person, so a striking book cover plays a tremendous part in my reading the book. The essence of the story should be present. Less is more. If it's an image of a neck with a beautiful necklace, or a hand with an engagement ring. I'm set. It gives me an impression of a happy ending.

Give one hot Book Boyfriend that comes to mind?

At the moment it's Martin Sandeke. He is one hot son of a b.. billionaire. I like that he can whisk you away to a place that makes you forget the harsh realities trappings of life. His sport makes you imagine all the dirty things he can do to you with his arms.  

I also like this forceful, brute,domineering, aggressive, seductive heck of a specimen that is Clayton Westmoreland. At the same time, his compassion, generosity and love for his woman really touched me to the core.

Give one Favorite heroine of all time?

Whitney Stone

Fave writers/authors at the moment?

Penny Reid. I read all her books in 4 days. Even though I wasn't so enthused with the cover of Hooker and the Hermit, I read it. Just because her name was there. Lynne Graham. I always go back to her or Mills and Boon whenever I couldn't find a seemingly good book.

Fave Genre at the moment?

Smart Romance. I can't stand paranormal, except if it's from Sherilyn Kenyon

"And now here is my secret, a very simple secret: It is only with the heart that one can see rightly; what is essential is invisible to the eye."

Bacolod City, Philippines

For you what constitute a great Book cover?:

I don't judge a book by it's cover. Most of the time. But we can't deny the fact that the books with the catchy and attractive cover gets our eyes first, not necessarily colorful or with a naked man with a hot bod on it. For me, it varies in color and the design. And when the image on the cover complements the title or it just tells something about what's inside. 

Give one hot Book Boyfriend that comes to mind?

Just one? Darn! This is the hardest question. Ever. The Book Boyfriend(s) that came to my mind will be a mile long list. But the first one that entered my mind was Mitch Lawson from Kristen Ashley's Dream Man Series Law Man.
