All About Eva It was so wonderful to see a true Latina on your cover [OGarden of Eva,O April]Nand one who is very proud of where she comes from. Eva Longoria demonstrates that background doesnOt matter, and anything is possible. Rosie Merlan Moreno Valley, CA

I canOt thank you enough for putting Eva Longoria on your April cover. She is by far the sexiest Housewife, and probably the reason why a lot of men tune in every Sunday night. The story was great, and the pictures were breathtaking. Raina Miller Via email

I shook my head in disbelief when I read that Eva LongoriaOs mother warned her not to show her grandmother a picture of Eva and her boyfriend, Tony Parker, because heOs black.

Thank you for such an eloquent and hopeful reminder that I am not alone. J.W. Via email
