If you want book 3 it's $2.67 there.
Note: B.O.B. charges a $0.25 transaction fee for under $3 purchases
Note: You may be charge a Foreign transaction fee by your Credit Card. I use Paypal to get around that.

I also found out Book Two is also on Sale at the Nook Store for 99 cents. If you want Book one it's not free at B&N but it's 99 cents which is close.

I actually have bought other books in DANL other than the free downloads, even buying a few Heyer books so I'll be delighted to remain a member as long as they'll keep me!

I received an email this morning about my renewal. It stated the renewal price would remain $9.99 and. I would receive info later with renewal instructions.

Bait and Switch - Darlene Gardner [Romantic Comedy/Contemporary Romance]

-This book was previously published by Love Spell in 2002 (this edition is updated)

-Author has published with Harlequin, Love Spell, etc.

Book Description:
After switching places with his identical twin to catch a criminal, Mitch is the one who's hooked - on his brother's girl!
Grant "Mitch" Mitchell is a cop accustomed to bailing out his charming, irresponsible twin, but his brother's never been mixed up with a criminal before. The plan to get his twin out of trouble is a simple bait and switch.
Mitch will go undercover as his brother to gather enough evidence to put the bad guy in jail. It seems easy enough until a blond knockout shows up on his brother's doorstep. She's not only gorgeous, she's spitting mad. Before Mitch knows it, he's trying to keep his hands to himself while winning back his brother's girl!
Meanwhile, his twin is living it up while attempting to impress a woman who thinks he's Mitch. Which leaves a doozy of a question: Are the women falling for them or their mirror images?

I just finished the Samhain freebie from a few days ago and wanted to see about getting one of the sequels that features a secondary character I liked. A Google search returned a coupon code that worked, so I thought I'd share!

EARTH12 was good for 30% off, and applied to multiple books in my cart (though I just bought the one, not sure if it's a one-time use but would be glad to check for someone).

Note: I had to do a double take because Samhain never puts these up for free. This is from their Retro Romance line.

This one is now free straight from Samhain as well, for anyone who wants a DRM-free option.

Alone Time is another free, on preorder.

I bought Impulse by Moira Rogers, to complete (for now) her Southern Arcana series.

Thank you very much for remembering to check Samhain.

I used the Samhain coupon in June, but didn't realize until last week that it was still valid. It's good for multiple uses and it works on top of pre-orders and new releases that are already discounted 30%. Samhain rarely has coupons so I was happy to find out this one was still working.

Dirty Little Lies by Julie Leto is 99 cents.

Quote:

Sultry Latina bounty hunter Marisela Morales is back, taking on the Boston elite -- and her gorgeous ex -- in a red-hot, roller-coaster adventure from USA Today bestselling author Julie Leto.

Three months into her training for Titan International Investigations, Marisela Morales needs some R & R, and the tuxedoed hombre de misterio sending her scorching glances across a crowded ballroom looks like he'd be happy to fulfill her needs. Closer inspection reveals that the masked man is danger with a capital F -- as in Frankie Vega, her ex-lover and Titan colleague. But before their reunion reaches the boiling point, a senator is shot and Marisela must confront a female assassin with a wicked reputation -- and a link to Marisela's old life.

Working under Frankie provides Marisela with plenty of aggravation, along with some sinfully sexy after-hours benefits, but she'll need to keep her mind on the job if she wants to beat the demons from her past...including an irresistible man who betrayed her...and a killer chica who's her biggest challenge yet.

Dirty Little Secrets was given away a few weeks ago but if you missed it you can get it for 99 cents.
It's book one of the series.

Quote:

USA Today bestselling author Julie Leto launches a caliente new series featuring a sexy, Latina bounty hunter with an appetite for danger and an insatiable thirst for the man she's hunting down: her ex.
When Marisela Morales sets out to stop her ex-boyfriend Francisco Vega from skipping out on bail, she has a secret agenda: revenge. She hasn't seen Frankie in ten years, and back then, he broke her heart, choosing his gang over his girl. So when she tracks him down in their old haunt, a hot dance club in Tampa, she sets about seducing him into her trap.

Frankie has a secret agenda, too, and Marisela soon faces a tough choice: continue drifting through her twentysomething life -- hitting the same town with the same girlfriends every weekend while struggling to find a job and pay the rent -- or dive headfirst into danger with her ex. Frankie operates in a treacherous underworld full of arms dealers, assassins, and sinister agendas -- a world overrun with people keeping dirty little secrets -- and only Marisela has the cojones to fight her way to the truth.

These are formally published books by Pocket (2005-2006). The author has just gotten her rights back and plans to finally write book 3 if all goes well.

I think it's great now authors can go back and finish writing a series that may not have done well due to limits of how it was publicized at the time of release.

I'm always on the lookout for these types of stories with a strong heroine that isn't set as urban fantasy. I absolutely loved the Silhouette Bombshell series because of this.
