Celebrate Romance Every Day - Iconic Cover Models

From Chris Keniston's February newsletter ...

Y'all remember Fabio, don't you? He held the world's record for most romance novel covers, with his iconic face on the front of 460 romance books. That record was recently broken by a popular cover model from Saratoga, Calif., named Jason Baca. Jason's accomplishment was reported in the San Francisco Chronicle.

Jason is now THE top romance cover model!

Why should I care, you ask? Guess whose cover is number 461? That's right. Saved by a Seal is the cover that broke Fabio's record!

What do ya think of that? I sure hope this sells more books because 100% of author proceeds are being donated to benefit disabled veterans by providing them with service dogs through America's VetDogs.

Mahalo,

Chris 

From America's Vet Dogs,

In 2003, the Guide Dog Foundation for the Blind (VetDogs parent organization) recognized the need for an assistance dog program for veterans that would incorporate guide dogs, service dogs, and innovative training techniques. America’s VetDogs was created and incorporated to give veterans easy access to the best services possible to improve their lives.

In 2015, VetDogs expanded its programs to include first responders, including fire, police and emergency medical personnel.

All of our services are provided at no cost to veterans and first responders. Our funding comes from the generous contributions of individuals, corporations, foundations, businesses, and service and fraternal clubs.

Check out the website, vetdogs.org, to learn how you can support this effort to help our veterans.

PROTECTING CAROLINE by Susan Stoker 

Matthew “Wolf” Steel hated flying commercial. Luckily his job as a Navy SEAL meant he didn’t have to do it very often. He’d been unlucky enough to be assigned a middle seat on the cramped jet, but fortunately for him, the woman next to him was willing to switch seats with him. Hoping for a relaxing flight, Wolf was pleasantly surprised at the good conversation and sense of humor the woman had as they flew 36,000 feet over the countryside.

When Caroline boarded the plane to Virginia to move across the country for her new job she never expected to be seated next to the hottest guy she’d ever seen. She also never expected he’d be so easy to talk to. She knew he’d never be interested in talking to her if he hadn’t been trapped in the seat next to her, but it was a nice way to spend a long plane ride.

Neither Wolf nor Caroline were prepared for a terrorist hijacking of their plane, but if Caroline thought that would be the last time she’d see, or need, Wolf, she’d be sorely mistaken.
