Bay Area man on more than 600 romance novel covers is retiring
Manufactured passion is the bread and butter of romance novels, but Jason Baca, who has appeared on the covers of more than 600 paperbacks, says that's just the thing he's lacking.
"I still enjoy being on a book cover, but the passion isn't there," he told People recently.
It wasn't always this way for the 45-year-old Los Gatos native: "I knew what I wanted, being on covers was the object of my desire."
