It’s that time again — Tuesday! — which means I attempt to brighten your day with half-naked men. Read on at your own risk. 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.
Pants or no pants? And… go.
Alejandro Ramirez’s Were-Cougar mother drove him out after his first transformation, leaving him to seek out his human father and find the family his human side craved but that his animal side can never embrace. Now a man, he finds himself responsible for a traumatized Were-Cougar child. When he turns to the Weres for help, they send him to a human.
Dr. Gabriela St. Jerome hates the Cougars with every fiber of her being. But now she must swallow that hatred to work with Alejandro to help this Were child who has been thrown into transformation far too early by the horrific death of his mother. As they are forced together in the remote woods of the North Georgia Mountains, both find their mutual attraction overwhelming. But if Brie gives in to this man and her own passions, it will cost her life.

Amanda @ On a Book Bender October 23, 2012 at 11:59 am
That’s my vote, too!
Sarah (saz101) October 23, 2012 at 5:54 am
…I… come expecting cover wih mantittery and assery to laugh at and and and… This doesn’t scare the bejeezus out of mw :O
But seriously, dude should watch his ass. That cougar is COMING for it.

“But seriously, dude should watch his ass. That cougar is COMING for it.”
Sarah, I’m going to have to #GutterPass you for that comment. I also think that the cougar has a very strong orgasm face. RAWR.
Kelly @ Reading the Paranormal October 23, 2012 at 1:03 pm
Bwahahahaha! Cougar’s O face is FIERCE!
Felicia October 23, 2012 at 7:26 am
OK—hot men should always go without pants!
That being said, if you are in the jungle with a cougar coming for ya–pants might be useful (along with a shirt, knife, or maybe not being in the jungle at all so you can hang out pantless all the time).
Amanda @ On a Book Bender October 23, 2012 at 12:01 pm
I vote no jungle for being pantless all the time.
Hannah @ Once Upon A Time October 23, 2012 at 7:42 am
What a pretty kitty!
Amanda @ On a Book Bender October 23, 2012 at 12:02 pm
Rawr. :)
Kelly @ Reading the Paranormal October 23, 2012 at 8:05 am
No pants!
Man, I love No Pants Tuesday.
Amanda @ On a Book Bender October 23, 2012 at 12:02 pm
No Pants Tuesday. Ha. Who needs Top Off Tuesday when you have No Pants Tuesday?
Seriously.
Christi Snow October 23, 2012 at 8:55 am
I have to say that I personally like the no-pants, but the cougar doesn’t seem as pleased. Hmmm, cougar shifters….the story sounds pretty good! smiles….
Amanda @ On a Book Bender October 23, 2012 at 12:03 pm
Maybe it’s more that the cougar wants his pussy and he’s not getting it? I don’t know. ;)
Jenny October 23, 2012 at 10:21 am
Is that a mossy rock hiding his junk from me? Or fabric? I’m having trouble figuring it out. Or, it’s possible I just enjoy staring at his nether regions and need an excuse to do so. Whichever Amanda:)
Amanda @ On a Book Bender October 23, 2012 at 12:05 pm
Either way, Jenny, I think it’s rude to hide his junk from us. We are master peen inspectors, after all. Gotta make sure everything is okay.
Jenny October 23, 2012 at 1:50 pm
Oh my god. MASTER PEEN INSPECTORS?! I just died. I need to make us business cards that have that listed as our titles. Think of the graphic we could include….
Amanda @ On a Book Bender October 23, 2012 at 1:53 pm
You might be interested to see this conversation I had with Sarah last week about being peen inspectors: http://onabookbender.com/2012/10/16/top-off-tuesday-71/#comment-9993
*smiles* *wanders off to think about peen swelling reduction techniques*
Mariana October 23, 2012 at 12:21 pm
My vote is always no pants!! why have them? There’s no use!!
Loved the cover by the way!
Amanda @ On a Book Bender October 23, 2012 at 12:29 pm
Down with pants! (Literally, as the case may be.)
SaraO@TheLibrarianReads October 23, 2012 at 2:00 pm
Ok, while I enjoy your picture each Tuesday – I tend to be a silent observer of the muscle.
But I’m sorry, I was so distracted by the roaring mountain-lion (is that what the cat in the background is? a cougar maybe?) that I couldn’t properly enjoy the man’s very nice arms…and abs…and other extremities.
All I can think is “watch out behind you!”. Also, that he’s not properly prepared for such wild mountain dangers. Can’t the hot guy get a shot gun at least? Dare I suggest pants?
Amanda @ On a Book Bender October 23, 2012 at 2:03 pm
We think it’s an orgasming cougar (it’s coming for the guy’s ass).
*lets you think about that for a while*
Jess @ Gone with the Words October 23, 2012 at 5:37 pm
I can’t vote pants or no pants without seeing what the cougar is growling at!!!
But most likely no pants.
Amanda @ On a Book Bender October 23, 2012 at 5:58 pm
Voting no pants would be a lot better if we could see for ourselves, no?
Mary @ BookSwarm October 23, 2012 at 6:54 pm
Oh damnation! Who put that rock outcropping there? They deserve to be shot!
Still…abs and arms you could bounce a quarter off. Nice.
Amanda @ On a Book Bender October 24, 2012 at 10:33 am
*readies the shotgun*
Ruby October 23, 2012 at 7:07 pm
Is the cougar going to bite that nice man’s butt? I think he is. Bad kitty!
Amanda @ On a Book Bender October 24, 2012 at 10:38 am
I think the cougar is showing appreciation for the man’s butt.
Vanessa The Jeep Diva October 24, 2012 at 8:20 am
I totally hate it when I forget my pants while running from big cats.
Amanda @ On a Book Bender October 24, 2012 at 10:39 am
Ha. Isn’t it a tragedy?
Kristilyn (Reading in Winter) October 24, 2012 at 8:54 am
Definitely no pants. I mean, the cougar’s just yelling, “NICE ASS!”
Amanda @ On a Book Bender October 24, 2012 at 10:39 am
RAWR!
Caitlin (The Siren's Tale) October 24, 2012 at 2:33 pm
I vote no pants! The cover alone could make me read this book. Clearly, the wild cat is feeling heated up.
Amanda @ On a Book Bender October 24, 2012 at 5:06 pm
Heh. Pussy’s in heat?
Caitlin (The Siren's Tale) October 25, 2012 at 10:20 am
Oh man, I just let out the loudest laugh! My poor co-worker had a near heart attack I startled her so much. Too funny!
Amanda @ On a Book Bender October 25, 2012 at 10:30 am
*finger guns* Glad we could keep the morning entertaining. :)
