Still, nice cover!

I've been really really lucky with my covers, and the foreign ones have been a treat. It is my own fault that I have a very sick imagination and can never see a pram like that without thinking of a horror movie. I think I did get some tentacles into Girl from Mars (and definitely into Close Encounters). But not One Night Stand. And I think on the cover, this woman isn't pregnant any more, as she's pushing the pram, presumably with a baby in it. She is much more stylish than my heroine, but that's not a bad thing at all.

She must be related to Nicole Kidman. And I think that's a tentacle, not a claw. Which would make a cool cover for Girl from Mars, if the girl was actually from Mars and that actually was a tentacle. Just saying. Either way, it's pink. It's pretty. And I like the fonts, especially that crooked L at the end. Bring on the alien eyeball!

It shows you what a sick individual I am that on this cover, I immediately looked for an evil claw-like thing coming out of the pram, like the poster for It's Alive: http://www.alltimetoptenmovies.com/scariest/Its_Alive.htm But what do I know? The next cover I'll post has an alien eyeball on it. (PS The book does not feature evil claws.) I do think this is a lovely cover, though not as beautiful as the original UK cover, which I adore.
