Welcome to Shelf Candy Saturday, a Saturday meme, hosted by Five Alarm Book Reviews.
This is where I feature a favorite cover and its artist, which does not have to come from a new release or something that I received in my mailbox. Any cover that I discover and love will fit the bill.
My pick this week is Much Ado About Rogues (Blackthorn Brothers #3) by Kasey Michaels.
Summary:
Meet the Blackthorn Brothers—three unrepentant scoundrels infamous for being mad, bad and perilous to love.
Who is the darkly handsome Don John “Black Jack” Blackthorn? With his air of mystery and menace, the whispers about him hint of highwayman or government agent or even dark prince. But no one knows what it is Black Jack does… or how dangerous he can truly be. Now Jack’s mentor has disappeared, and Jack must track him down before it’s too late. His unlikely help: the man’s daughter—the very woman Jack had once wooed and betrayed.
Lady Tess Fonteneau knows more about the fine art of clandestine activities—and about the mysterious Mr. Blackthorn—than he realizes. As their journey leads them on the adventure of a lifetime, their reunion is fraught with passion, high-stakes danger and the one twist of fate Jack never saw coming…
My Thoughts:
I love this cover and as it is a historical romance novel, it automatically goes to my TBR list. Well, the plot is really inviting. And so is the cover..romantic! :) I think if I see this book in any of the bookstores, I will surely go for it.
This ARC was provided by Harlequin publishers. And I am also going to post this as one of the Valentine week's cover reveal next week.
So, you like it? And what do you think about the title? ;-)
When I was a little girl, there was a clothing store that had a dress in the window that I wanted soooo... badly. It was an adult size and wasn't for sale, but this reminds me of that dress. It is a beautiful presentation of color. Thanks for sharing your Shelf Candy post.
ReplyDeletethis is a very romantic cover and I think the dress is beautiful. I think this is a fabulous pick that is perfect for valentines day that is right around the corner! And who doesn't love a Rogue??? I know I do!

I like the cover :) it's got a great dress, and great colours, and the font is very pretty :) Love the swirls with "Ado" and "Rogues," it really emphasizes them :) Happy reading!
