I loved your book, the story it´s amazing, I really like it, and my question is: Who is the girl on the cover? I know that my question isn´t about the book but is something that I´m wondering since I bought the book.

Hi Mariana,
Thank you so much for your question and for reading My Last Kiss! You've made my day. :)
There's actually an interesting story behind how I found out who the girl on the cover is. When my publisher (Macmillan Teen) revealed the cover on their blog, I was reading the very generous/excited comments and saw one of them was in Russian. Crazy, right?
So I stalked out the commenter on Facebook and discovered she was a Russian photographer named Anna Koshechkina. Further stalking lead me to a series of photos she'd taken of a gorgeous girl with ethereal flowing hair on a desolate beach, and it was Cassidy!
My cover designer Elizabeth Clark purchased rights to the photo then worked her magic removing a ring on the model's left hand, splicing the image to reflect Cassidy's ghostly amnesia & adding spooky trees to evoke the setting of the story.
Super crazy cool, huh? You can find Anna on DeviantArt @afamjaowy, 500px.com & Facebook. And please do. Her photos are stunning.
Happy reading,
