Duet in darkness

Duet in Darkness front cover: Two women are displayed in an indoors setting. One of them, a black woman with short, straight black hair, sits on the wooden floor in a white negligee. Her left side faces the reader, and she sits with her left leg bent at the knee and turned outward toward her back, her foot bare. Her left hand is posed on her left calf and has a ring on its ring finger. Her right hand touches the edge of a blue and black cushioned sofa to her right. Her head is turned sharply to her left, and she looks straight out at the reader with a serious expression on her face. In the background, beside her on the sofa, a redhead with straight hair to her shoulder sits, with both legs folded atop the seat, feet facing right of the image. She is wearing a short, denim skirt and a brown, sleeveless blouse with buttons at the front and a V-neck. Her left hand is blocked by the figure who sits on the floor, and her right hand is holding a cigarette, elbow rested on the back of the chair. She is almost facing the reader; her body slightly twisted to her right. Her head faces the reader, but her sight is directed toward the other woman, with a serious expression. The scene is lit with natural light coming slightly from the left, casting a shadow of the black woman on the sofa and on the brick wall in the background.

Third lust (The)

The Third Lust front cover. The setting is a living room with a green sofa, two coffee tables, and paintings on the background wall. A redhead lies on her back on the sofa, with her head propped on a white pillow, to the left of the reader. Her hair is in disarray and seems to be long and loose. She is wearing a white negligee, her right breast partially visible. Her legs are bent and she is touching her hair with both hands. She is looking up, with a slight smile and parted lips, at a brunette with short hair who stands in front of the sofa with her back fully towards the reader. She is wearing a black slip with lace and high heels, and is removing what appears to be a white silk blouse. Her head is tilted to the left and bowed forward, as if looking directly at the redhead on the sofa. In the foreground, to the right of the reader, a round coffee table with a glass top holds an ashtray. To the left of the reader, another table, wooden, holds a glass of wine. Behind the sofa, there is a wall with paintings and a wall candle holder. The scene is lit from the left of the reader, and a shadow is cast toward the top right.

This too is love

This Too is Love front cover. A blonde sits on a white, carpeted floor, leaning on her left elbow, supported by a pile of cushions. She is barefoot, and her stilettos are seen next to the cushions along with a pack of cigarettes and an open matchbook. She wears a red, short, velvet dress with multi-row spaghetti straps. She faces the reader in a three-quarter angle towards the center-right of the image, and her knees are bent, legs and feet close together. Her left foot is raised from the heel, the toes touching her right heel. She holds a cigarette in her right hand, which arches over her right knee. Her chin rests on the back of her left hand. Her face faces the reader, but her slightly squinted eyes look toward her right, where another woman sits up from a lying position, stretched on a camel-back green sofa on the right side of her body. The woman is a brunette with hair to her nape and is dressed in a yellow blouse and brown capri pants. Her left arm is stretched over her left leg, and her torso is slightly lifted, resting on her right elbow. She looks straight at the blond with a half-smile. The scene is lit from the left, with the most light placed on the blonde.
