Oh Awesome! How can the author afford to do this? I have the first two but this is too good to past up. I just made my first book purchase for 2015.
Self-pubbed, so promo price to drive sales and get reviews. The author gets 1/2 the usual cut (35% instead of 70%), but increased volume can make that up. Not to mention that sales at non-zero amounts count towards rankings and rankings can mean sales at higher prices.

Unless you mean the stupid $9.99 "regular" price (which won't be sustainable for more than a very few self-pubbed authors). I suspect it will settle into the $2.99-$4.99 range for a regular price, eventually.

Best wishes that everyone who's picked up unwanted stuff this season gets well soon.

Free from the author via KDP Select @ Amazon:

The Border Bride by Elizabeth English, 1st in her The Borderlands series of f/m Scottish historical romances, originally out from Jove in 2001. The blurb for this says it was a RITA Award-winner.

No one can remember a time when the Darnleys and Kirallens were not at each other's throats. The marriage of Maude Darnley to Jemmy Kirallen promises to end an age-old conflict—but Darnley has no intention of keeping his sworn word. Instead, he blackmails his baseborn daughter, Alyson, forcing her to masquerade as Maude while he prepares for a devastating surprise attack. Alyson is determined to survive and rescue her young brother from Darnley's clutches, but she never counted on falling in love. Now Alyson is faced with a terrible choice: Reveal the truth, and her brother's life is forfeit—stay silent, and condemn Jemmy and his clan to certain death.

Free from Kobo (DRM-free):

Hour of the Rose by Christina Skye (Steel Magnolia Press, orgininally published with Avon in 1994).

Quote:
Star-crossed strangers uncover old passions in the shadows of hauntingly beautiful Draycott Abbey. Archeologist Kelly Hamilton follows a trail of secrets to England, tracking a priceless thousand-year-old sword. But the abbey's beauty hides old dangers, and it will take all Kelly's courage and her gift of second sight to stay alive. Rugged ex-Royal Marine Michael Burke wants Kelly gone before sunrise, and will brook no refusal. But Burke is overruled, and in the nights that follow, Kelly's visions tell her this man is no stranger. She has known him long before. As his ardent lover... Soon the two are pulled under the spell of the moonlit abbey, caught in a sensuous net of white-hot desire. And all the while an old and dangerous enemy waits to strike.

Thanks for all the romance free reads you have posted, I have so many now that I find need to organize my library

Off topic question:
I am a newbie to Calibre, have a very old version 0.8.33 installed on my Windows 7 PC. I would like to update to a newer version and want to ensure that it is stable with no issues. The newest available is 2.15.0, should I install that or an older version? I have no plug-ins installed.

I wasn't sure where to ask my question and you are the friendliest and most helpful group here, thank you!

2.15.0 will work with Windows 7. I don't know of any issues doing such a big jump affecting your library. You may want to ask in the Calibre forum.

There was a slight change in appearence between the 0.xx releases and 1.x, and then between 1.x and 2.x And a lot of new features (Edit Book and Cover Grid spring to mind but I know there are others.
