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.
This one is for my armpit ladies. (Also, that has GOT to be one of the oddest things I’ve said.)

Going Against Orders Book Five in the Men in Love series.
Raised under the iron control of his father, Nicco pushed aside the one true love of his life. When Nicco realizes that nothing short of perfection will garner the love of his father, he decides to take back control of his life. Mac has loved Nicco since they were teenagers. When Nicco joined the Navy, Mac thought he’d lost him forever. He joined the Marines and was shipped overseas. When an explosion almost costs him his life, Mac is saved by his then-lover Amir. After waking in the hospital, Mac makes a promise to himself. If he can’t have Nicco, he’ll have no one. After years of celibacy it seems Nicco has finally decided to go against his father’s orders and love whom he chooses. Life together seems promising for Mac and Nicco, but with Amir still in the background how will their relationship survive?
Tortured Souls Book Six in the Men in Love series.
Two very different men, two very different pasts. Private investigator Bram thought he’d closed off his heart forever.

Amanda @ On a Book Bender February 19, 2013 at 8:54 am
It is very nice. *stares*
Christi Snow February 19, 2013 at 8:45 am
LOL…and just exactly are the armpit ladies?? hehe….
Amanda @ On a Book Bender February 19, 2013 at 8:55 am
All the ladies who like a little armpit in their ToT. ;)
Mariana February 19, 2013 at 8:45 am
Another hairless guy, but this one is really hot!!
Amanda @ On a Book Bender February 19, 2013 at 8:55 am
You know, I didn’t realize that. His armpits are hairless too. Huh.
Vanessa The Jeep Diva February 19, 2013 at 9:10 am
Pits and nips! I wonder if there is a phelia for arm pits…
Amanda @ On a Book Bender February 19, 2013 at 11:29 am
Probably. There’s a philia for just about everything, it seems.
Jenny February 19, 2013 at 9:13 am
Does he shave and/or wax his armpits? That is amazing. Based on his hairless chest I’m going to wager he’s hairless, ahem, everywhere. *attempts to slide cover image up some* Also, sounds like this book is just brimming with hot men and some even hotter man on man action. WIN.
Amanda @ On a Book Bender February 19, 2013 at 11:32 am
I hope it’s shaving, not waxing his armpits. I’ve heard you can BLEED from that.
Er… let’s just focus on the men.
Book Savvy Babe February 19, 2013 at 10:10 am
lol, armpit ladies! You do have a point though, this dude is hairless and has muscles in his pits… that makes for a very inneresting book cover, pretty, but interesting :) Book Savvy Babes
Amanda @ On a Book Bender February 19, 2013 at 11:33 am
Pretty but interesting is right!
Kelly @ Reading the Paranormal February 19, 2013 at 10:43 am
*stares at this cover*
I… kinda like this one. I mean, I kinda like a little hair on a guy but… I like this one anyway.
Amanda @ On a Book Bender February 19, 2013 at 11:34 am
Maybe he has all his hair in other places.
Kelly @ Reading the Paranormal February 19, 2013 at 11:54 am
DON’T TEASE ME WITH THAT TANTALIZING THOUGHT!
Amanda @ On a Book Bender February 19, 2013 at 12:29 pm
HAIR IN OTHER PLACES!
Mary @ BookSwarm February 19, 2013 at 11:55 am
Double nips and a pit shot, FTW! (Where is that man’s armpit hair? Manscaping?)
Amanda @ On a Book Bender February 19, 2013 at 12:30 pm
I don’t know, but the longer I think about his lack of armpit hair, the more it freaks me out a little.
Jess @ Gone with the Words February 19, 2013 at 12:48 pm
Just tell me where it hurts….I will make it alllll better. :)
Amanda @ On a Book Bender February 19, 2013 at 1:27 pm
lolololol. I just bet you will. :)
Melissa (Books and Things) February 19, 2013 at 2:27 pm
If that is the oddest thing you’ve ever said, you are good… ;)
He’s just having a good stretch! :) Nice. :D
Amanda @ On a Book Bender February 19, 2013 at 2:28 pm
Should I be trying harder to say odd things? I feel like I should. ;)
Kristilyn (Reading in Winter) February 19, 2013 at 3:51 pm
Very nice! Though I wonder where all the hair is, too! Maybe it didn’t go with the red cover …
Stretch, man, STRETCH!
Amanda @ On a Book Bender February 19, 2013 at 3:53 pm
The lack of hair creeps me out a bit. It really does!
Tara SG (25 Hour Books) February 19, 2013 at 4:21 pm
Very nice stretching… I have no problem with the missing hair…
Amanda @ On a Book Bender February 19, 2013 at 4:22 pm
No? Must be just me, then. Huh.
Felicia February 20, 2013 at 6:25 am
He is red hot—I mean literally evidently :)
Oh now I am distracted by the armpits —I should never read everyone’s comments before hitting submit LOL
Amanda @ On a Book Bender February 20, 2013 at 8:57 am
Hahaha. Yes. He is literally red hot!
(Yes, the armpits are distracting, are they not? o.O)
Sarah (saz101) February 20, 2013 at 7:53 pm
OMG! AMANDA! HE IS MEEEEEELTING!
Amanda @ On a Book Bender February 21, 2013 at 8:28 am
Quick, Sarah! Lick him up before he melts completely!
