Before the Final Encore by Scotty Cade is the #0.5 prequel novella to his m/m country western singer romantic suspense novel, explaining the heartbroken New Adult backstory of one of the leads who eventually becomes a Nashville record executive, free courtesy of publisher Dreamspinner Press.
This is apparently being made free to promote the 2nd edition revised re-release of
Final Encore, which is slated for next week.
Currently free @
the publisher's webstore (DRM-free multiformat bundle available worldwide) and
All Romance eBooks (DRM-free choice of formats available worldwide).
And this has been the (late!) selected 3rd (non-repeat) free ebook thread of the day.
A bit by default, but we could use some more diversity in the official publisher promo freebies we get, especially romance-wise, and I like it when we get these sorts of story-relevant tie-in shorts rather than glorified sample chapter excerpts when it comes time to do the promos if they're not giving away the 1st-in-series outright, so bonus points.
<-- apparently, we can make up an entire music band full of MR smileys; with a Spinal Tap-esque spare replacement drummer, to boot!
Enjoy!
Description
Tires flying over the interstate, college student Ian Dillon can’t get out of Greenville, SC quickly enough. As he watches his entire life fading away in his rearview mirror, his thoughts are only of his lover, Todd, and the memories of their time together, now completely shattered by Todd’s incomprehensible betrayal. His mind still reeling, Ian drives through the night until a split second decision guides him to Nashville, Tennessee. Everything will be better there. It has to be!
