The sentence that follows the correct apostrophe rule is option C. The book's story was pretty exciting, even though its cover was not. The correct placement of the apostrophe should be on the word "book's" because it shows ownership, which means "the story of the book". The word "its" should not have an apostrophe because "it's" is the shorter term for "it is".
