I love when you do these cover artist posts. The pictures here and on her site are beautiful. I especially love the one on the far right in the "Mystery" section, the shirtless cop. He makes me think of our detective, Jason Chen ^_^

That one was used for the last book by Janelle Denison, Wilde for Him. And thanks, I like these post even if maybe you are among the few who liked them back :-)
