Angela asked Anne Marie Citro:

Lyrics Heart & Soul. ... I almost didn't stop to read about this story. That being said, the write up for this story sounds nice. It sounds like it will have something positive to say. I look at the cover though and all it says to me is 'sex'. ... Why do You think that a book cover has to say 'sex' for it to sell?

Anne Marie Citro Dear Angela, Thank you for your question. I love the cover of the book and I really want to get people's attention. Out of the thousands of pictures I looked at this one spoke to me. I had to do modifications because it was way too sexy, she didn't have under wear. My characters deal with some heavy issues but they also deal with intimacy issues. Becoming comfortable in their own skin is essential to the story. The cover represents the playfullness and the freedom they worked for. It is sexy and it meant to be. They had to overcome a lot to get to the image on the cover. I am really proud of these characters and I really hope you read it.
