Keeping Secrets by L.D. Madison
What's the genre? What is it you like or don't like about this cover? Does it make you want to know more about the book? Does it make you want to BUY the book? Discuss.
Because there are two men on the cover and the title is about secrets, I also would assume that it is a gay romance.
I'm not 100% sold on the image on the top, I think that the nose with the building going up it bugs me. I think that it would be stronger if everything were masked out except the eyes looking down on the other man.
I'd say gay romance/mystery, and I've seen a lot worse than a building in a nose, but yeah, maybe trim the building or opaque the nose or fade it out. Like the font positive/negative contrast, that's a good visual for secrets. I'd read.
The cover artist was Jared Rackler at jared.rackler at yahoo.
ReplyDeleteNice cover! I'd guess gay romance/adventure and I'd take a look at this novel if I came across that cover.
