Cover Art by Robert McGinnis

My post Look of Love (inspired by the wonderful book of Jennifer McKnight-Trontz) shows you how romance covers are changed the from the '20 to the end of the twenty century. Wonderful covers (and many of them so you are warned the post is heavy!) by the biggest names of Graphic Design like Geralg Gregg, Barye Phillips, Bob Stanley, Robert Maguire, Lou Marchetti, Robert McGinnis and many others. Enjoy!

Regarding the cover for "Tender is the Storm"
I must say the hero has an interesting way of keeping himself covered up---nothing like draping the heroine over his privates. LOL !!!!

Someone says that this is a new way to do a bj... It's one of my fav covers, I would like to be a fly when this cover was on the bookstores to see the reaction! Elisa

I think it was a proposition by Jules Jones

Then maybe we can't call it a "bj" anymore---we must call it a boobjob XD

A boobjob? LOL, you invented a new term! Elisa
