I don't care what the cover says about the heroine. Lots of times she doesn't look anything like it; it's just the lure for buyers to show a beautiful picture.
I actually like a plain Jane as heroine. She's sensible and just average looking. In Holt's books more often than not her hair is her one good quality. I want to think people like our heroine because of her character and not of her looks.
What I want most in a heroine is common sense. When she does stupid things, I don't feel like identifying with her anymore.
