Look at the cover of Blood Mate by Mina Carter: http://www.goodreads.com/book/photo/17786832-blood-mate

I'm totally avoiding Real because of all I've heard about it, and when I saw the cover of Mina's book my first instinct was "AVOID!" because it's a photo from the same shoot, just a different angle with some tattoos added. I know stock licensing is probably the only way these authors can afford decent covers, but when readers get that feeling of familiarity, it can backfire in a hurry.
I didn't enjoy Real, but of course opinions vary. The duplicate [or close to] covers drives me nuts, it's a huge pet peeve of mine!

I'm surprised this book is free because it's quite popular and rated quite highly also. Surrender by Melody Anne
