Behind the Cover: Rose Meloche

Rose Meloche is another cover artist I like a lot. Her art is digital, but I always feel like in front of an old classic painting when I see her works. And then, the cover for Secrets, Skin and Leather is beautiful, sexy but not vulgar.

Yes! I do like her covers. I especially thought the Soul Mates III cover was nice.

I like also Soul Mates II, but there is a lonely man, so I preferred to post III, two men are better than one! Elisa

I really liked "Secrets, Skin and Leather" and read it because of the sexy cover. It inspired my story called "Tight". :) (http://ashmedai.livejournal.com/20778.html)

I'd be honored - thank you! :D

Oh, it's a QaF fiction. You don't know how I'd like to see this series in Italy, but I think it's pretty impossible... we still have the re-runs of old fiction. Elisa

But you really don't have to see the series to read it - it's just smut basically, LOL!

You are a mage, I just finish it and your message pop up in my email! I like it, it's a very good "porn". And now I want to browse the net to see how this Justin and Brian's guys look like. Elisa

I read on wikipedia a bit: In the end Brian and Justin decide to give up on their relationship, isn't it? It's sad... Elisa

I was depressed at the end of episode 513, in fact they filmed it so you'd cry your eyes out. But it was a realistic ending.

Well, even if it is a realistic ending, I still prefer to have unrealist ending when I go to the cinema or I see a fiction on TV or I read a book... I know, it's childish, but I have enough of bad things in my real life, that I don't want to have it also in my "fantasies". Elisa

I was SO in love with my Soul Mates 2 and 3 covers that I want to get posters made of them :)

I have such a hard time believing her work is digital. As you say, they have that classic painting feel to them and I just love that.

Mmmm, I like the Soul Mates one. :)

You were very lucky with that two covers and I believe they helped a lot also the selling of the print version. Elisa

Ciao Angie. You like the book or you like the cover? I like very much the book, but if I'm true, the cover is not very nice. Elisa

[identity profile] angelabenedetti.livejournal.com 2008-06-12 07:34 am (UTC)(link)
I haven't read the book, but I do like the cover. Guys in corsets don't do anything for me, but the two guys in the second cover are very nice. :)

Ahhh, you like SOUL MATES II! I understood you liked the cover of SOUL MATES I... that is the cover I don't like very much. Yes, cover II and III are beautiful. Elisa

Oh, sorry! LOL! No, I was only talking about the ones you have posted here. :)

*nods* Rose's covers for the Soul Mates books blow me away.

She manages to be sexy without being vulgar... and she is very "elegant". Elisa
