Hot Guys and Facial Hair

This is the cover of my January SuperRomance. The artist went to a lot of trouble to match it to the characters, even giving Gabriel his chest tattoo--TERCO--which means STUBBORN in Spanish. That said, I'm not sure the moustache works. I'm afraid he looks kind of, well, scuzzy. What do you think?

I mean, tell me I'm wrong. I love this story, by the way. It takes place in a school. It involves a biracial relationship and a sad history and healing and redemption and troubled kids who get a fresh start.

The Romantic Times Book Club review gave it 4 STARS and said

"This is a well-written story with lots of great chemistry."

Here's the book description from the review:

When Felicity Spencer begins her new job as magnet school principal, she reconnects with Gabe Cassidy, older brother of her high school boyfriend whose gang activity led to his death.

Gabe’s running a martial arts gym out of her school, and Felicity wants the space for an after-school program.

At first, Gabe’s still angry over Felicity’s abandonment of his brother, and over her decision to eventually close his school, but the two soon find themselves working together and unable to resist each other.

Here's hoping readers agree.
Best,
Dawn Atkins
