It’s that time again — Tuesday! — which means I give you shirtless men and you try to steal them away from me. Top Off Tuesdays was started by Felicia, Christi and me. It is where we (and you!) share the book covers that make us swoon. Head over to Felicia’s blog to share your Top Off Tuesday link or to see what everyone has posted.

Ice Man
Feeding and sex go hand in hand when you’re a blood slave to a vampire. It’s like a drug and Rowan is hooked. With the vampire Theron, Rowan has never wanted for more than his next fix. Until he meets Brett. Brett is hot, the sex is incredible and he’s human. Brett is looking for kinky sex when he goes to The Catacombs, an exclusive fetish club for men. Flair bartender Rowan, also known as Ice Man, is sexy and mysterious. Brett isn’t ready to complicate his life with a lover outside The Catacombs and Rowan isn’t interested in club-scene sex but coming together and giving in never felt so good. Rowan’s dark secret could destroy everything. He must never allow Brett to learn of his symbiotic relationship with the vampire. He has to choose-tell Brett the truth or remain a blood slave. He can only hope that Brett will trust in love enough to forgive him.
Iron Man
Rafe is a vampire and Adam is his human blood slave. But Rafe wants more-a blood bond. Adam, not willing to join the vampire world, leaves it all behind and heads for DC and a new life. Back in town for the holidays, Adam and Rafe rekindle their romance and head to the local fetish club, The Catacombs, where Adam is known as Iron Man because of his hardware-a steel cock plug and chain harness. They spend the week having wild, aggressive, kinky-as-hell sex. Anything goes. When it’s time to return to the real world, Adam is torn. Rafe is more than a vampire, more than his lover. He’s his partner. Adam isn’t sure he can give up his humanity, even for the man he loves. He has to decide-a vampire blood bond or his lonely human life in DC?

I want to comment on the nips but, honestly, I can’t stop staring at the one guy’s… junk purse. I almost think that every cover should have one. Or two!
Amanda @ On a Book Bender July 31, 2012 at 10:01 am
Junk purses are very important to have.
Felicia July 31, 2012 at 7:31 am
What Kelly said because I snorted tea out of my nose when I saw that guy’s “clothing” :)
Amanda @ On a Book Bender July 31, 2012 at 10:01 am
Hahahaha. We can always count on Kelly for stellar commentary.

I had to take another look, I couldn’t figure out why he bedazzled his chaps… it’s a junk purse. LOL.
So does August have a theme?
Amanda @ On a Book Bender July 31, 2012 at 10:02 am
I believe August is asstastic. :)

So bad boys don’t wear pants — is that what the title and picture are saying?
I had to take a second look at the second dude … I thought he was wearing chaps for a minute there!
Amanda @ On a Book Bender July 31, 2012 at 10:03 am
Bad boys don’t need pants. The pants get in the way of all their bad boy deeds.
Mary @ Book Swarm July 31, 2012 at 10:00 am
WTF is “Iron man” wearing? Holy crap! I didn’t even notice anything else…my eyes went straight to the package and I couldn’t peel them away!
Amanda @ On a Book Bender July 31, 2012 at 10:04 am
That’s a good place for your eyes to go, Mary. :)

*blinks at cover*
Um. I can’t remember what I was going to type for this comment.
*scrolls back up to look at studded penis-pouch*
When I regained my senses and was able to form coherent thoughts, I read the blurb. Then all thoughts again fled. Whuh. This sounds like one erotic-as-hell book!
Amanda @ On a Book Bender July 31, 2012 at 10:16 am
Penis pouch! *scrolls back up to stare at penis pouch with you*
I don’t think thoughts are really necessary with this one.

*Care Bear stare*
A steel cock plug? Do I even want to know what that is?
LOL
Amanda @ On a Book Bender July 31, 2012 at 12:03 pm
Hmm. You ask the hardest questions, Missie. (Pun intended, heh.)
Missie, The Unread Reader July 31, 2012 at 1:26 pm
Living in this gutter together is quite cozy! :)
Amanda @ On a Book Bender July 31, 2012 at 1:28 pm
There are so many junk purses and penis pouches here! *rolls around a bit*
Ruby July 31, 2012 at 2:39 pm
Well, um…I don’t really have much to say about this one. Awesome find! The guy on the left sure has pointy nipples! Though I’m sure no one but me noticed that because of the junk purse/studded penis pouch. Sometimes it’s hard being me.
Amanda @ On a Book Bender July 31, 2012 at 5:17 pm
We all have our priorities, I guess. I’d take a junk purse/penis pouch any day. ;)
Heather @ Book Savvy Babe July 31, 2012 at 2:55 pm
hahaha, junk purse…love it. And wow, just…wow…. I am actually not sure what to say, but great pick for TOT :) Book Savvy Babe
Amanda @ On a Book Bender July 31, 2012 at 5:17 pm
*finger guns* Thank you. :)
Christi Snow August 1, 2012 at 8:51 am
LOL….loving the comments on this one. All that bedazzling definitely takes the focus away from the nips, no matter how pretty they are. Classic choice from you Amanda…you always excel! :o) smiles….
Amanda @ On a Book Bender August 1, 2012 at 9:07 am
Why, thank you, Christi! I’m so glad you approve my choices! lol.
