I'd rather buy an ebook using a false address but paying for it than getting it from the darknet for free.

Thanks in advance.
When you sign up with BoB, tell them you're in America. Use Google checkout when you purchase. I don't think they use IP addresses at checkout, because they've never refused my purchases from Germany. I don't have any address or credit card on file with them. I don't think it's that deceitful to tell them you're in the US so you can buy books from them.
