So in the name of research…(romance writers get to call a lot of fun stuff “research”)…what kind of eye candy do you like your book covers to have? I wouldn’t want to ask you to make an uninformed decision, so here are a few examples:
Do you like smolderin’ shoulders?

Or smokin’ abs?

Are you a chest chick?

A leg lady?

A back babe?

A butt bandit?

Do you love the ladies?

Or do you just want to see some lovin’?

Or is it all good????
Warning: Too much eye candy won’t rot your teeth, but if what my grandma said is true, it might make you go blind.

I really like LA Day's covers. VERY HOT!!!! They Both Belong to me is nice!!! Cowboy Games is good too. :)
Great post, Wendi. Thanks for using my covers. The good news is I'm 42 and I'm not blind yet but I might need glasses soon.
Thanks Jambrea!
Thanks, Jambrea! I do love a hot set of abs. :) And, LA, I feel your pain, every trip to the eye doctor I hear my grandma's warning. :)
Thanks for playing along today!

Hell I'm not going blind and my teeth are all there. I love it all. Never could answer that question: "What's the first thing you notice about a man?" My basic answer was, "depends from what angle and is he coming or going?" ROFLMAO.
AWWWWW.....My Gabriel cover. I'm sooo going to miss seeing him staring back at me. Of course you know with the closing of Dark Eden I am putting Gabe on the shelf for a while. Need to find him another home so I can finish the series. In the meantime though, he will be sitting here on our blog so I can always come back and take a sneak peak.
Thanks for featuring my babe Gabe!
Ah yes, got to love eye candy...delish! Man have covers come a long waayyyy...I think winding up with glasses is a small price to pay...teehee~
Huggers
Tess, we definitely need to keep Gabe around as long as we can. *wink* Best of luck finding him a new home.
And AnneMarie, it's a small price indeed! :D
Thanks for stopping by!

OKay. My Eyeballs have just exploded. SNORT. Sorry for the scary visual. LOL. Thanks for featuring One Dependable Man (back) and Tempting Tess (shoulders) but honey, I've gotta agree with Tess. It depends one which direction I'm looking. Abs,chest,butt, etc. I love a hot man on a cover!!!
Love this post! Hugs!
Oops. That was my comment. Accidentally did the anonymous thingy. My bad.
Rita/Regina
I love to look at muscle men, but a man who looks a little more natural is what I like. Pretty woman but no skinny women, more naturally average size, and all the rest, hair, lips, unless of course they are from another planet
I am a back babe. lol But I'll take the chest too. lol Oh, well. :) All these books look good! :)
opps I forgot to leave my name Krista. lol But yeah again definitely a back babe. :)
Krista
Rita, that's quite a visual! LOL!!! The cover gods have definitely been on your side, my friend!
Saroya, do you like them au naturale, too???? ;)
Krista, I love a good strong back, too....yumm!
Thanks so much for playing along!!!

My My!! That was quite alot of very enlightening eye candy!! I already wear glasses, just hoping I don't go blind. Great covers, all of them!!
i love them all, i cant pick one....such great covers.....
I'm an upper body babe, so ripped shoulders, arms and abs, totally works for me.
GOtta go with an ass for me, a nice female one ;)
Any of you ever buy books with hot covers only to be disappointed later on?
Sascha
Sascha, yes! But at least I have the eye candy. ;)
Judy, if I'm not blind yet, I think you're safe. :D
Cathy, we have the same taste indeed!
Savannah, they're all nice aren't they?
Wendi Darlin
My fav is the "They Both Belong to Me" cover. You get it all!!
Shelley~
Give me them allllllllll! They're ALL MINE!!
OK, I'll just go quietly blind, then. :P
Cassidy
Shelley, it is definitely ALL good!
Cassidy, you can lead me, or I can lead you...the blind leading the... I think you know the rest! LOL!!
Thanks for playing along. I love all the fun people who hang out around here. :)

I'm in the "it's all good" camp. I do like sexy shoulders, but I'll look at it all. :)
I like the abs. And I'm a sucker for strong, well-defined but not nasty overblown ARMS.
Cynthya and Amy, I have to say, you ladies have exquisite taste!! ;) Thanks for stopping by!

I like all kinds of covers. Most covers w/half-naked guys catch my attention, but I also like covers with fully clothed people or with facial close-ups.
The only thing I HATE is when the people on the cover look nothing at all like the people in the book. For instance, if the cover has a ripped blond guy on it, the hero had better not be a slim dark-haired guy, or I get annoyed. Since I'm not a very visual person, the covers help me picture the people.
Hi Wendi, Great job. Personally I like the last two covers. LOL, wink
Cassandra, I agree with you COMPLETELY!!! When I turned in info to my cover artist for Cowboy Games, I described Gavin to her and said, "If you can't find a model that matches this description, please just use a really hot torso shot." I guess she couldn't find anyone as hot as my Gavin, and I'm not complaining a bit. :)
Yes, Dee, those last two are definitely hot. *wink*

I like me some lovin'. I want to see the couple and imagine them in love as I'm reading the book.
Enjoyed all the eye candy.
Thanks, for stopping in, Jill! Lovin' is nice...very...very...nice. :D
