Here And There And Everywhere
I frequently see a cover and try to remember where I saw one just like that recently. I had one of those moments when checking out Marjorie Liu’s cover for Soul Song, a July ‘07 release. The cover sent me searching because it reminded me of one I just saw somewhere. That’s when I remembered the cover for Wild Thing, an anthology by Maggie Shayne, Marjorie Liu, Alyssa Day and Meljean Brook.
I’m not alone, right? These two look the same and share an author…right? But, I swear I’ve seen this photo on another cover. Just can’t remember where.

Jaid Black’s “Deep, Dark and Dangerous”. I think it’s actually the same shot as Marjorie’s, just with a different background.

For a moment I thought this was the new Alyssa Day book. But the covers are not quite the same. However, it may resemble The Nymph King by Gena Showalter.

I do a double take every time I see the covers of Atlantis Rising (alyssa Day) and Unleashed (Rebecca York, Susan Kearney, et al.) They are so similar, right down to the embossed red titles.

Yep, I think Shannon is right — Jaid’s cover is the same.

You will see a lot of a person of 2 people running on lots of romantic suspense books - cant think of any titles offhand.

The Nymph King by Gena Showalter

Pat, that running couple gets a workout on Suzanne Brockmann’s covers.

I gotta disagree with the commenters saying it looks like the Nymph King. I toted that cover around DC for a week, looking for a necklace to match the one the guy on the Showalter cover was wearing. I don’t think he looks like these guys at all. Perhaps it’s hard to tell, but my jpg didn’t have the “showalter” running across the dude’s face, as the final cover does, and he looks NOTHING like these fellows. His eyes and nose are very different.
It’s not the same person.

THE NYMPH KING cover is tough to compare because of the way the guy is positioned. If this is the same guy, huge congrats to HQN for putting the cover together so it doesn’t look exactly like these two and every other one out there. I wish more publishers would do that. If it’s a different guy - and, like Diana, I think it is - then I want to know just where all of these hot dark guys are hanging out when they’re not posing for these covers.
And, yeah, I checked out the Jaid Black cover. That one is WOWZA similar to the cover of Lui’s upcoming release.

And lots of other books too, Shannon. Are you the Shannon from RRAH?
