The book Run Like a Girl is sitting on a running track. A little bit of grass is in the far background. The cover of Run Like a Girl features a young Black woman with lots of braids that are a little past her shoulders. She is wearing gold hoops, bracelets and rings and is holding a pair white running shoes with an orange stripe over her shoulder. She's in an orange tank and orange shorts. She's looking over her shoulder with a slight smile. The background looks like a sunrise with yellow and orange at the bottom an pinks and purples up at the top.

The cover of The Romance Rivalry features a young man and young woman sitting near enough at a table in the library that their fingers are just touching at the edge of an open book. They are both facing forward, but they are looking at each other from the corner of their eyes. There are bookshelves in the background.

Three covers of the book Come Home to My Heart. It shows Two young people sitting together with their backs to the viewer. There is a window frame that is just behind them. Through it we see them and a sunny sky over a home. Looking at them from outside the frame though, the horizon is a night sky behind homes.
