That's true. This cover will definitely help the online sales, even though it's going to cause problems with the literal thinkers. The visual speaks to the characters' internal truth but not the incidents depicted in the story. (Off-stage blindfolding doesn't count. LOL) To keep it safe, I think I would've gone for a mirror shot--a head and (bare) shoulders of Veronique staring dazedly into mirrors reflecting different sides of her face. It would be nice if one of the reflections could show a male figure seated like Conan the Brooding Barbarian in the shadows, but reflections can be hard to manipulate. The image would be a compromise, but if the shot extended to the very top of the nipples, it would provide the titillation factor. Yeah, I'm all about the bookstores. I can't write fast enough to make online sales worthwhile. LOL Hugs,
