Caption That Cover: Tricks or Treats

Ready for another caption contest?

Dirty Trick by Mickey Miller. A woman is wearing a leather jacket, but she's also topless. The title lettering is blocking out her chest, like a big censor bar. The hero is tattooed and resting his whole arm on top of the heroine's head.

Ren sent this cover and here are their comments:

 It’s the most romantic embrace I’ve ever seen involving a man trying to stuff a woman down a drain feet first.

I’ve also been trying to figure out if the heroine is topless and if the male cover model has a Lord of the Rings tattoo.

Here are the rules for captioning that cover:

Comment below with your caption! Caption that cover however you wish! You can come up with a new title or tagline. A winner will be randomly selected at the end of the contest!

The best captioner will receive a $10 bookstore credit to a book retailer of their choosing.

Standard disclaimers apply: We are not being compensated for this giveaway. Void where prohibited. Open to international residents where permitted by applicable law. Must be over 18. If you squint really hard, you might be able to make out the model’s tattoos. And I do mean really hard. Also, not digging bare skin on a leather or pleather jacket. It just reminds me of falling asleep on a leather couch and the inevitable pain that comes with peeling your sweaty skin off of it. Comments will close Friday March 22, 2019 around noon ET, and a winner will be announced shortly thereafter.

Good luck!

Winner update: Congratulations to Empress of Blandings with the winning caption:

“You are my fated mate!”
“Oh yeah, where’s it written?”
“In the mystical runes etched into my skin. Honest.” *Attempts to stop her noticing as he scribbles furiously on arm with Sharpie*.

    I just…at first I thought she was trying to crawl out of a body bag. Also it’s strange how his arm and upper chest are so heavily tattooed but his chest seems tattoo free. I imagine a him getting a new tattoo:
    Him: I want this train on my arm
    Artist: There isn’t really room for it too look proper. What about on your chest?
    Him (in horror): Good Lord would you listen to yourself! I cannot pass the armpit line! You’ll just have to squeeze it in. Better yet, just put it over the rest, I’ll know what it means.

    – so my cover is him talking to the tattoo artist, which makes no sense, but neither does the cover:

    Here’s your only warning. Try to cross the armpit line again and I’ll put you in a body bag.

    From the author that brought you Ballers 1&2, comes another story where he REALLY wants to show her his “precious”
