Poll

sound's good, when I choice a book I look at cover first and then read the back cover

Me too. Covers are very important. That's one reason I enjoy paperbacks more than ebooks. I can see the cover frequently and learn about the characters in the story.

You sound like me. I love my phone, but only because I love to read on it.

The cover is important.

I had a hard time deciding between it seemed like a good idea and unbreak my heart.

Yeah, covers make better first impressions but usually I don't stop there. I look at the Cover, blurb and a few reviews (if available & all ratings) before I pick a book up to read. Covers with faces makes it easier to imagine the characters. I voted for Lauren Blakely Lauren Blakely's cover because I think the title and the man's pose sync very well together.

I vote for the Tessa Dare book. I like her writing.

The Governess Game by Tessa Dare. I love the cover.

Unbreak my heart by Lauren Blakely love the cover and title

You Promised Me Forever, with The Governess Game as a very close second - actually they were probably tied! I'm glad to see more of a variety in choices this time! Yay Goodreads!!! :-) (Nice to have options in addition to bare skin, tattoos, & muscles.)

Number #3 Unbreak my heart

Either Rush or Unbreak My Heart.

Unbreak My Heart

Rush

I voted for Kylie Scott's. Mostly because it did not show the guy's face. I hate book covers that display a guy's face. What if I think he is ugly. Then I am less inclined to read it.

My favorite thing about reading is my imagination weaving in the story. I use the authors suggestions. But my imagination shows me what I want to see. I love book covers that do not try to dictate the characters to me.

I am more inclined to pick up a book with a art print drawing or bodies without faces. Or old black and white art prints with objects or animals. But it is hard for me to read books that have a cheesy cover of some douche looking guy who looks nothing like my type. You are narrowing your audience.

This is merely my opinion. No intent to offend. But if I was in a novel focus group I would choose the Scott book. Hot body without a face let's me choose his features. Which makes me more inclined to buy that steamy romance novel. We all have our types.

I love Kylie Scott's books so that one did it for me.I must admit some covers do put me off which is a shame. But I also love a great looking torso so Will try to read more books with more torsos!!

I love Kylie Scott's writing and this cover is a winner !

I usually choose by cover also. It Seemed Like a Good Idea at the Time really drew me in. I have to say I chose by author on this one. Kylie Scott's books are amazing and this book was too!

I had a hard time choosing between It Seemed Like a Good Idea at the Time and Unbreak my Heart but I went with the latter. I love both of them though! ;)
I love historical romance, but the guy on The Governess Games has a totally modern haircut. Like, 2018 modern. It ruins the historical feel completely.

I chose unbroke my Heart.LOVE the cover

Unbreak my heart is the one I love the most

The boy and girl on Tessa Dare's book look like children. Too young, no heat!

Definitely, It Seemed Like a Good Idea at the Time.

definately unbreak my heart. Those eyes looking off into the distance. Deep thoughts.
