Congrats to KC (SmokinHotBooks), who won Making Promises (sequel to Keeping Promise Rock) by Amy Lane! Making Promises is being released today (July 26) by Dreamspinner Press.
Welcome to another edition of the Misadventures in Stock Photography! Today you’ll meet Pumkin Ravioli Boy; after I saw that typoed book title, I was completely unable to think of a different name for him. O.o
was
from
by his old flame, a
. Pumkin Ravioli Boy and the
, both
at heart, were completely unprepared to deal with the bad case of
poisoning that they picked up during the rescue.
O noes! What will happen next?!?
P.S. I’m serious. Tell me. Your comments make the Misadventures ever so much fun for me and hopefully for the other readers! Thank you!
“Look deep into my eyes,. You are growing sleepy. Your eyes are growing heavy. You will not look at any more pictures of naughty boys!” -Mayhem
Suddenly Pumpkin Ravioli Boy realises that the only way to save himself and The Ghost of his Past is to confront his problems and look at things from the other side. With the last of his strength, he turns the other cheek in a Zoolander-style move! The Ink in their Blood from Eden Hill magically dissipates, leaving he and The Roman Rebel to move on in their lives together and open up their dream chiropractor business complete with ‘happy ending’ massages.

Noooooooooooooooooo! Not pumkin boy, oh heaven, not him! Save him! Maybe he can find a nice vampire to suck it out, oh and now I sounded dirty

Wow. Kris is on a roll today.
I was thinking in your blood leads to “death” and the misfortune to never grace another cover, and never to be seen on your blog again. Oh the tragedy.
Either that or he’ll end up in a menage with some blonde slut who covers her boobs with a strategically placed arm.

Pumkin Ravioli Boy and his rebel travel to the Castle in the Sky, where they fight a viscious alphabet giant. Having acquired a bright orange P, they change Pumkin Ravioli Boy’s name to Pumpkin and the ink in the blood disease mysteriously vanishes.
A recent post from Seanna Lea..almost too hot to knit
Oh, these are fun! Thanks, guys. (Still giggling over the alphabet giant, Seanna!)
Smith and I are relaxing and enjoying a nice morning. Your story gave us such a great laugh which is the perfect way to start a day!

Mayhem, I fear even your hypnotic skills will stop your mom from her mission.

Obviously that naughty girl sucked out all of the poison, and all was well.
Pumkin Boy and his Roman Rebel got rid of the Red Haired B*tch that caused his illness and after sucking out “the poison”, many many times, both men were feeling great and looking forward to their HEA future. Ain’t love grand?

Fainting dead over the word “Pumkin.”
Oh my…. Pumpkin boy to the rescue!! He dones his orange cape… Slaps on his spandex tights…. And puts his mask on to hide the identity of himself…. (what, everyone would want a piece of him, roflmao)…. To rescue the damsel in distress… Sorry I could not resist!
Hope you had a great weekend honey!!!
I think the reason this guy looks so glum is that he’s sick to death of being called Pumkin Ravioli Boy. I mean, come on…how demeaning (and yucky, and misspelled) is that? It’s worse than “Snot Nose.”
A recent post from K. Z. Snow..I can haz book to read!
oh my jesus! ~fans Jordan’s face~ see what you have caused here, Chris??
Jordan does seem to be unusually sensitive to catastrophic cover misspellings… Whoops.
Say what you will, I cannot find it in my heart to be critical of Pumkin Boy. I, too, have slept wrong on a new pillow or jerked my head around to stare at an attractive man and suffered from the dreaded ‘head is stuck in this position’ situation. Luckily, I keep a chiropractor on speed dial for just this type of emergency.
Wait, is it just a poorly done fake tan or does he have a certain orange tinted countenance on a couple of those covers? I guess that’s only to be expected. Poor Pumkin.
Alas! I cannot be witty; am too hypnotized by Miss May. Too… tired…
Wait. I don’t think Mayhem had anything to do with that. I was tired BEFORE I read your MiSP post…

Too funny! I think that must be the saddest thing on earth for an author to get a huge whopping typo (especially on an easy word like “pumpkin”) in his book title. At least the publisher managed to spell his name correctly. 🙂
A recent post from Val Kovalin..How to finish writing your rough draft no matter what!
How do you do it? It flows beautifully and you’re soo good at creating a tale all on its own *Brava*
A recent post from Anna Shah Hoque..My first review has been posted at DDR!!! Yes Im that excited grin
Chris give that cat her meds – who does she think she is…..
Was that really a typo – I thought that was the name of the book… Sad!!
🙂

She just wants the ravioli…
Both the author and the editor deserve to be shot for that one.
…The ink in the blood poisoning wouldn’t be so bad if it hadn’t done that thing to his neck. He’d give anything to look straight ahead again. Then, true to his name, he started eating pumkin ravioli. The pumkin soaked up the ink and all was right with the world. 😉
But seriously, when I see that book title, I think of childrens books.
A recent post from Sydney..Why yes- I do knit
Pumkin Ravioli Boy prevails and goes on to rescue the Ghost of His Past, who isn’t a ghost at all – in fact, he never died! He’s been alive all along, working at Casino Rama as an Elvis impersonator. PRB and TGOHP move in together, make blueberry pancakes every morning and live life to its fullest each day.
(I will never look at pumpkin ravioli the same way again.)
LMAO!
PBR makes my neck hurt, but now I want blueberry pancakes.

May – you want me to WHAT?
It’s nice to see that Pumpkin Ravoli Boy is turning the other cheek regardless of his circumstances 🙂
A recent post from orannia..Making History
ROFL! And now you’ve given him this mistypoed nickname to live with eternaly. Maybe it’s not such a bad thing he’s poisoned with the ink, he can use the ink in his blood to write the p back into his name 😉
I want to know why half the books even bother to use that picture when they cover up the best part?
‘kay– I just keep thinking that it’s got to be some sort of dirty euphemism… like, you know, “I’ll go pump’in in the ravioli!” but omg– IT’S STILL MISSPELLED!
I am under the command of the Chaotic Beast… must look away now
I’m laughing at EH’s comment!
May doesn’t need meds – she is trying to save us all from Pumpkin Ravioli Boy (OMG) LOL…
And then PRB and his mate found they were growing stronger from the Ink In the Blood Poisoning, until they ultimately became pumpkin colored superheroes and set out to save the world….
The End.. 😛
