Free/Bargain LGBT April 2013

stormcloude · 04-13-2013, 05:37 PM

Though I'd give a shot at starting a thread on this topic, since these are the books I'm most interested in and I doubt I'll go through all the other threads looking for them.

Anyway I noticed that Tamara Allen has some of her books for free at B&N, Smashwords and Allromance. I don't know how long these will be free for.

Link: http://www.tamara-allen.net/

The books are The Only Gold, Downtime, and If It Ain’t Love.

I read The Only Gold and really liked it:

Jonah Woolner's life is as prudently regulated as the bank where he works. It's a satisfying life until he's passed over for promotion in favor of newcomer Reid Hylliard. Brash and enterprising, Reid beguiles everyone except Jonah, who's convinced Reid's progressive ideas will be the bank's ruin. When Jonah begins to discover there's more to Reid than meets the eye, he risks succumbing to Reid's charms-but unlocking the vault to all of Reid's secrets could lead him down a dangerous path.

Thanks! They all look good.

Noah by Ben Ryder.

Can't say I've read this one, but it's got a good review at Dreamspinner.

Description:

Callum Walker is feeling listless in his life in London. When his job takes him to Canada to install communications software for a new sports arena, he’s glad for a change of scenery.

During his stay, he befriends Noah Lukas, the strikingly handsome star player of the Toronto Bobcats professional hockey team. Callum knows nothing will ever come of it, but he can’t stop his attraction. As their bond grows, Callum learns more about – and falls more for—Noah through his sensitive and humble interactions with fans, his gentlemanly reaction to flirtations from arena staff, and his frank apprehension over his impending retirement. Their friendship evolves from workout partners to confidants, and then to even more. But Callum’s time in Canada is limited, and circumstances may divide him from a love he wasn’t looking for.

I appreciate you starting this thread. This is the genre I both write and read, so I'm always looking for great recs (especially when they're free)

I got this a few days ago and just read it. Enjoyable, but the ending is a bit abrupt. Definitely worth getting!

male/male. Stories featuring gay protagonists &/or romances.

murraypaul · 04-14-2013, 04:34 PM

Ah, not Murder/Mystery then.

I think the abbreviation might not generally be recognised by people browsing the forum.

M/M (or m/m) is fairly standard Male/Male (male/male).

In the context of romance/erotica, I'm sure it is.
If the title had been Free/Bargain M/M Romance, there wouldn't have been any confusion.

Byrdie · 04-14-2013, 05:11 PM

Thanks, some of these were on my Fictionwise wishlist but I never got around to buying.

ScalyFreak · 04-14-2013, 05:23 PM

Also free in multi-format from AllRomance.
