Here is an interesting example of how the cover of a book evolved from plain (ebook) to
BOLD (pbook):
The author, Noire, is part of the new wave of Blaxploitation writers. Before Chapter 1, the novel sucks the reader in with a provocative question:
In the beginning …
Have you ever laid down with a man and wasn't sure if you'd ever get back up? Tossed the sheets with a bone-knocking fear that only a cold-blooded hustler could produce? Sexed him like your life depended on it, because, in reality, it did? You still with me? Then let's roll over to my house. Harlem. 145th Street. Music and madness. Dollars and deals. Step inside the hottest recording studio on the East Coast while I put you up on what's real. Grab a seat and brace yourself as I show you the kind of pain that street life and so-called success can bring. My name is Candy Raye Montana. I lost my dreams in the House of Homicide. The house that Hurricane built.
Well, no. But I have laid down with such women, in my dreams.
