All these goddamn good covers are making me lose my edge. I’ve spent a good ten minutes just staring at this cover–I’m supposed to be studying for my finals, I know–trying to figure out why the hell it looks so familiar. It’s the pose, you see, with the woman baring her neck to the man showing 1) submission 2) that she trusts him implicitly. Anyway, I couldn’t quite remember where I’ve seen it before, so I went through all of my posts and then I found it. Check it out, the women are even wearing the same top, except this one is in black and it’s less skanky. Also, this woman is not as skinny. It looks like she eats more than two Tic-tacs a day.

Oh, and this woman has better hair. I just love this woman’s pretty, pretty hair. It’s like a Pantene Pro-V commercial. My ruler-straight, stick-thin Asian hair is very jealous of it. I covet this hair. I want to wrap myself in it like it’s a Pashmina shawl and roll around in it and sniff it. Eww. I just grossed myself out. I’m more attracted to this woman’s hair than I am to the man’s nipple. I was just so fascinated by this woman that I didn’t even notice the man at first. She just looks like she smells good. Like sunshine and flowers and springtime. Aw, crap… I think I’m liking chicks more than boys again. Ha-ha. Just kidding. Don’t tell Tim.

Oddly enough, she looks a lot more angelic than the man holding hair her who has BIG FUCKING WINGS, by the way. I wonder if the angel character was at all inspired by Warren Kenneth Worthington III. That’d be awesome. I love that guy.

Oh man, I can’t wait for this book. I just sent another email begging Meljean to send me an ARC as soon as it’s available. I think she’s thisclose to slapping me with a restraining order.
