About the book:
Trey Walker thought he was cursed when it came to women, but after a disaster destroyed nearly everything veterinarian Maddie Brooks owned, Trey offered the petite redhead shelter at 2 Hope Ranch. Maddie was smart, sexy and good with animals… impossible to resist, yet he vowed not to break her heart.
Maddie knew the temporary arrangement she made with Trey was strictly business. For over a year she’d tried to get the handsome rancher to notice her, but the man never seemed interested. Now, she’d be living under his roof and using his barn to treat animals.
Could she be the woman to break the Walker Curse?

I like the title layout on Cover #1. Don't know if this is where I vote. The title stands out swaying and not boxy, leaving the title eye catching.
Hi Charlene! I really like Cover #1 the best. The white part where the title is doesn't cover up the couple on the cover, plus I love the font a lot! Plus your name stands out to me right at the top.
Love me some cowboys, too! Can't wait to read The Cowboy Contract!

I love both of the covers but #2 is getting my vote.
I think cover #1 is more pleasing to the eye. Lettering and graphics are not stiff

I like cover #1. It lures me in to want to see whats inside
Ilenemcvea@aol.com
Hi Charlene. My vote is for #1 A little more eye catching. But, whichever I think the book will sell fast.
MAXIE mac262(at)me(dot)com
My vote is for cover #2.
I like cover #2 with the bold print the book stands out more and makes it easier to find . thanks heather meadow22@comcast.net
I like cover 2 due to the small print on the side of the photo
I like cover 2. the photo is ideal. saubleb(at)gmail(dot)com
i vote for cover 2
I VOTE FOR COVER 2 DID NOT HAVE EMAIL SO ENTERED AGAIN
SPUNK_72@YAHOO.COM
I;m voting for #2, the final line makes reading the back cover/blurb not nessesary.
I vote for cover #2. Even though it is more traditional, I feel that I am drawn to the picture. TaraBurkhart (at) juno dot com.
At first I liked Number 1 - mainly becasue it is different and eye catching. However, I decided to vote for Number 2 because of how his hands show up more. Also, all the information is together rather than spread all over the over.

I like the way your name is written on Cover #1 and I love the swirl in the title layout. The picture is great too!
I like them both but if pushed I'd go with #1.
I prefer cover #1. The photo's great!

GardenGnome12345@aol.com
Cover #1 is the one!! yiayia79@comcast.net
I like the layout of #2 but I like the type fonts from #1 so if you could combine the two and call it #3 that that one would get my vote....but since there are only 2 choices, I vote for #2.
kareninnc at gmail dot com
Number thwo
I would pick the first cover.
Because I feel that the curvy line makes it look softer. Your eye flows more over the image and the words, it just fits better somehow. So number 1 has my vote :)
devapajo (at) gmail (dot) com
I like them both, but #1 is my favorite!! Thanks for letting us choose Charlene...so exciting!!

I prefer cover 1.
ShirleyAnn@speakman40.freeserve.co.uk
I like #1 the best. Both your name and the book title show up really well. Plus, the slant part (I can't think of what to call that) on the bottom (where the title is) is different from most covers. This is a very attractive cover. Great job!
Janine
kinini01@hotmail.com
I like cover #1 the best. I like the way it shows off more of the couple, the curve of the title section is more interesting than the squared off version in cover #2, and I like the font of #1.
I vote for #1. I like the way the title and your name is done on it.

I like cover 1. Stands out a bit more.
theshadedmoon (at) gmail dot com
I like the layout on cover 1, but I don't love the font for your name. But the sloping design is really cool -- I'd definitely go that direction!
Looks like a fun book! I'm looking forward to it!

Cover #1. I like how it has USA Today Bestselling author above your name.

I like the layout on #1 the best.
I like Cover #1. It stands out more to me. dwelchert at yahoo dot com
I'll vote cover 2, but I wish it had cover 1's white swirl and more of his leg (as it balances the picture more). I like how your name stands out more on cover 2, and I like the three pieces of information being together there too.
(Sorry; forgot my email: seytype [at] hotmail [dot] com.

I really like cover #1. I think that it is more attention getting.
I like the first cover best.

texaggs2000 at gmail dot com
I like #1.
I prefer the separation of your name from the title. It makes them both more noticeable.
I'm glad that your S-I-L did such a wonderful job photographing your cover. How delightful to have your daughter and his brother on the cover!
I like #1
Cover #1 is my favorite.
tsommervold@hotmail.com
I'd go with cover #1; it catches my eye more.
jmcgaugh (at) semo (dot) edu
Cover #1 has my vote. I think the font is more eye catching...
cover #2
The swishy background for the title on Cover #1 goes with the cover models' bodies, so it looks more cohesive. Cover #2 is a bit too stilted.
AquarianDancer at gmail dot com
I vote cover #2 the font and the wave at the bottom makes it eye catching and romantic
I like cover #1 the best.
sstrode at scrtc dot com
I vote for cover #1. The curve makes more of a flow that is pleasing to the eye and pulls you in.
Congrats on the book coming out. Would love to read it.

I like #2. The swirl on #1 I'd distracting and your name is more visible on the second one.
relklaf@aol.com
I like cover #1 because it just seems a little softer.
suefarrell.farrell@gmail.com
CHarlene, I prefer Cover #1 the best - it doesn't look like all the other split covers out there, it stands out. The book sounds fantastic! Looking forward to it!
Wow, great turnout so far. I posted on FB just now.
My vote: #2
but they're both good!
Charlene, cover #1 is the best - it also stands out from all the other split covers out there with the swoopy. Great stuff!
Cover #1 far and away. Congratulations on your book!
lisakhutson(at)cox[net]
Look at all these votes and cover love! I'd pick #1.
I like cover 2. It gives all the info and has your name in Big Red Letters. It catches you eye better. The guy's not bad either.

I like Cover #1. I think the lay out has more eye appeal.
marypopmom (at) yahoo (dot) com
#1 Name in big font top of book so your name attracts right off the bat.
rlrlaney at yahoo dot com
I would go with cover # 1, adds a little bit of art to it to make it different. evamillien at gmail dot com
I like #1 the best lzz25 at yahoo dot com
I like #2. For some reason, the straight, block lines says "strong cowboy" to me. (It's pretty funny as I don't usually like straight lines. Just MHO! gsroelov@gmail.com
I vote #1. It also shows more of the hero/heroine. The title and light shading are softer and easier on the eyes. (#2 reminds me more of a magazine cover.)
nicnac63 AT hotmail DOT com
Both are great, but I like cover #1the best!
castings at mindspring dot com
Cover #1 is absolutely the best!

I think cover #1 for sure. They both are great, but #1. Looking forward to checking out this book. Looks good and love me some cowboys

I pick cover one because the eye falls immediately to the title. It is also very cute.

I MUST SAY I SPIT OUT MY COKE WHEN I SAW SUNSET!! PUUUUUUUUUURRR HE'S HE ONE!!
KINDARB49@HOTMAIL.COM
I vote for Cover #1. I think the box along the bottom is too large on #2 and I like the swooping action on #1's title. :D
#1 for the layout. i did like #2 because it makes your name and the USA Bestseller tag stick out more, but overall, #1 is my favorite.
I vote for cover #1
monamhassan[at]gmail[dot]com
Something about Cover #1 is more appealing to me than the second cover, so I choose #1.
Cover #2! Always fun to vote on covers, best wishes with the book!
Hi Charlene,
It's a hard decision because there both very good. At first I was going to go with #2, but the more I look at #1, it's my favorite. His hands are what makes my choice easy. Thanks for the chance to choose my favorite.
jlynn55@q.com
#2. Your name shows better. Great cover either way, though. Xo
I like both covers, but prefer #2 because of the bold print. It stands out more for me.
kscathyATyahooDOTcom
I like the first one better. I want to see the name of the book. The books are sorted alphabetically, so the author's name doesn't need to be bigger than the title of the book..... says me :-)
I like the #2 cover better. I think it's going to be a big help selling with the Best selling Author, if someone is unfamiliar with your work this is a plus that will get their attention.
Theresa N
weceno(at)yahoo(dot)com
I like Number 2 better. I don't like the placement of your name in number one, but I like the swoop at the bottom. But I think number 2 looks cleaner :)
Thanx!
Rebekah (at) VampWereZombie (dot) com
I agree # 2 is the better cover.
I like cover 2. It is the better cover.
Hi Charlene! Both are lovely covers but from a purely artistic/aesthetic point of view, I vote for cover #1.

I like cover #1. Thre's something about the curve of the line that draws my eye more.
I like cover 1 better. But I would think that if the author name wasn't right on top it would be better.
Thanks for the giveaway.
Wlht79 at yahoo dot co dot uk
I vote for Cover No. 1. I like the swoopy banner at the bottom instead of the block style on No. 2. jdh2690@gmail.com
I vote for #1. I don't like bottom with title on second one. Too blockish - the other one stands out.

I love both covers but if I must choose, I would choose number 1.

#1
I like Cover #1 the best--since the picture is the same on both, it is the title layout that makes it more attractive.
cgclynsg0 @ gmail . com
I like Cover #1 because this layout shows more of the couple. I also like the swirl at the bottom better than the straight bold block style letters.
mizztuts AT bellsouth DOT net
I like #1 the best. To me it's more eye catching.

Sebrina_Cassity at yahoo dot com
I like the first cover.
Both covers look alright, however, from a design stand point, the curvy line above the print makes for a more pleasing cover. I vote for cover #1.
JWIsley(at)a-l(dot)com
Hi, I vote for Cover #1 because it showcases the hero and heroine more so than #2 does, also the slanting of the title and USA bestselling author is a brilliant idea and in my opinion this cover is very eye catching and more appealing to the buyer and would sell a lot better than Cover 2 would :-)
ImmortalPhantasy77(at)charter(dot)com
#2...it looks cleaner to me, its more appealing.
I like #1 the best!

Cover #1 gets my vote for the best cover, because you can see more of the cowboy's knee. And, of course,
I want to see all I can of the men on your covers.
