You are not going to believe what just happened!
Out of curiosity, I tried a google search of the title of that book to find out more information. I accidently wrote the title wrong. Instead of typing Beyond All Shame, I typed Beyond Shame. This is what Google found for me…
A dangerous world of sex, lust and violence… All Noelle Cunningham has ever wanted is a life beyond-beyond the walls of Eden, where only the righteous are allowed to remain, and beyond her stiflingly restrictive existence as a councilman's daughter. …

My novel is in this genre. Spooky or random coincidence?

I found this quote from the man that drew the cover art.
Turns out that artist Norman Saunders had a theory about why men were attracted to the magazine. Pulp historian and Saunder’s son, David Saunders writes:
Dad felt these [magazines] were geared towards men who had served in the war but had seen no action, so exciting tales of heroic deeds satisfied their frustrated fantasies. By 1962 these magazines had gone over the top into a whole new genre that was aimed at men’s frustrated sexual fantasies, New Man, Man’s Book and Men Today.
I'm not a man, and I think covers look very interesting. I'm the type of woman that gets nosey about what men are reading and doing. Lol
I would read a couple of those magazine just because I'm nosey. -

There’s always been a lascivious component to pulp covers and they often reveal creators and readers’ kinks. Some of the most shocking covers become tame—even quaint—over time. For example, Weird Tales‘ many imperiled ladies are kind of adorable now. I appreciate men’s magazine covers in ways both serious and camp, but after looking at gallery after gallery of them, they run together and man’s life in adventure magazines starts to feel like a big show covering a sense of resentment, loss and even longing.
