Cover Help

I could use a little help selecting a cover.
Targeted has just been released in most countries but the UK and Australia.
The cover is on my blog site so you can check it out.

I've been told that the UK readers like softer covers and not sexy men, so I'm trying out a second cover for that market.
I'd love your help.

My cover artist has come up with two similar designs, which I like, but I'm not sure which I like better.
Which do you like better for that market? and if you're from there - which would you buy?
I'd love to hear your opinion.

  1. I like the second one. The red is indistinct in the first while the lavender in the second shows up well :)

  2. The one on the right Its more pleasing to the eye.

  3. The one with the black band on the top. The black balances the black at the bottom, enticing the eye to sweep the cover.

  4. I prefer the one on the right. I can't read the red print on the left one, plus the black on the top provides a nice balance.

  5. I vote for the one on the right too.

  6. I like the simplicity of the one on the left. I know... I'm going against what others have said, but it's eye catching without anything else.

  7. Left. The one on the right is too dark. I know it's suspense, but it has too much going on. I also dislike Skye's Story--that sounds too "soft".

  8. Thanks everyone. I appreciate you taking time to make a comment and I appreciate the comments. They give me a better idea od what people see when they look at the cover. I've had a few others email. We'll see if anyone else comments. I'll make a decision by tonight and let my cover artist know.

  9. I'll chime in with a vote for the one on the left. The black bar across the right one pulls my eyes from your name and the title. Best of luck on the decision. These things are tough.

  11. I'm all about clean and clear, so the one on the left works for me. But I do agree about the color on the last font line. If it was the same color as it is on the right, I think you'd nail it.

  12. Thank you everyone for posting - with your comments.
    I've taken them and I'm sending them back to my cover artist for some revisions. We'll see how it turns out.

  13. I hope I am not too late... My vote goes to the right variant. It will stand out better in Amazon. The left cover looks great also but... reminds me more of a post card. You can also change all what's black on the right variant, to a dark violet to suits the soft sky.

  14. Never too late. I'm gathering all the comments and trying to figure out how to make another revision. Great comments and suggestions. Thanks for dropping by and leaving them.
