And Meredith Duran's cover. And Spymaster's Lady. I get what you're saying, that the naked chest image suggests cheap thrills rather than beautiful writing, but I don't see it that way. If the novel is sensual and romantic, shouldn't the cover reflect that? I don't think sexiness negates quality. Love Victoria Dahl. I'll be picking this one up. Great review, thanks.

I haven't read any of Victoria Dahl's books for a while (not sure why), but this is tempting :) Lancaster sounds...interesting! And perhaps someone needs to start an online petition for the fair treatment of romance book covers? Thank you Ana!

There is a bunch of really good, incredible romance writers at the moment, like Victoria Dahl and Meredith Duran, who are really talented and write good <em>books</em> but who unfortunately get these horrible covers from their publishers. Don't be put off by them - what's inside it what matters right? :mrgreen: Tracy - I love Victoria's historicals , more than her contemporaries. Give this one a go! WM - thanks for the comment! :D Adrienne, believe me , I feel your pain.
