Top-off Tuesday: What better way than to top off a good book than with a GREAT Cover!
Every week, Amanda from On a Book Bender, Christi from Smitten with Reading,and Felicia from the Geeky Blogger’s Book Blog want to see those Top Off covers that grab your attention! To play along, share your favorite covers (old, new, or coming soon). Every once in a while there are covers that just make you say Oh My! Sometimes it is good, sometimes it is bad, and sometimes it is head scratching.
This week’s Top-Off pick is Mark of the Sylph by Rosalie Lario. This book was released awhile ago, but is being re-released with a new cover. I liked the original cover (the second, smaller cover picture), but I really like the man candy covers, especially for romance novels. So, I’m going to say that I prefer the new, muscle-tastic cover. How about you, which cover do you prefer?

Original Cover
Half-demon Taeg is desperate to free his pregnant sister-in-law, who is spellbound to an indestructible book that will create an army of the undead. He is convinced that an ancient sword can destroy the book and the spell forever, but this relic has been hidden for a millennia by a powerful glamour. The clock begins to run out on his search when an old rival goes after the book and Teag’s family in his quest for revenge.
Librarian Maya Flores has a secret: she’s immune to magic and is well aware of the supernatural beings prowling the streets of New York City. Haunted by a brutal demon attack that took her family, she is on a one-woman mission to destroy the evil demons who did it and any others who get in her way.
Maya is Taeg’s best hope for uncovering the sword. Unfortunately, she wants nothing more than to kill him. As he fights for her trust and to save his family, she is forced to face the truth that not all demons are evil. And the worst part? She might be falling in love with one, too.

Other than the massive amount of writing across that mans chest (travesty) I am a fan of the first cover. I picked this one up as one of my two review books this month because I have the first one. I figure I will do a series review. I can’t wait to delve in

Oh, I definitely prefer the muscle-tastic one! And is that a chain he’s holding…or is he just happy to see us?

I have to check out this book. I like both covers (of course I’m partial to the sexy man dominating the cover).
