Are there any men who actually look like that?

Where are the beer bellies and 'Dad-bods'?

This objectification of men is highly exaggerated, in my beer-belly opinion.

I thought "Fiction" was assumed in the thread

The XYL is rather shocked! All those men are are computer generated images?

No. They are models. Jon Paul Studios is just one instance who designs covers. They are some really nice guys who go to RT and RWA every year.

Finished Naked in Death. It was ok. Now I am reading Time in Death, a set of 3 shorter stories.

The early novellas were good and added to the series. A few of the later novellas in the paranormal anthologies are too far outside the box for the world she created (IMO). Not sure which ones are in Time of Death.

I like Naked in Death for the beginning of Eve & Roarke's relationship. Also I've reread it so many times there's a nostalgia factor for me. But I agree it doesn't have the best murder mystery.

I always tell people to read the first three books. If you are hooked on Eve by then, the series probably isn't for you.

ETA: I think it's also worth remembering that when she started writing the books back in 1995, there weren't so many billionaire heroes around. The series was pretty unique when it started. And it's still going strong after over twenty years.

The first book in Time had a fake vampire. I assume you mean aren't hooked on Eve.
