When I update the BN content on the nook, the book shows up. However, when selecting it, instead of seeing the "read" option on the touch screen, there's a "download" option. Selecting that results in "product not currently available." That's even with adding the book to my BN library with hotspot shield turned on.
I've only tried this with free books, so as far as I know, with paid books it could be different. However, at this point, I don't really want to be purchasing books I can't really read.

Just to make sure, because this an error a lot of people make.
If you have registered a credit card in your B&N account this does not make it your default credit card automatically. You have to choose a credit card, using manage credit cards, as your default credit card.
Look at the "Payment settings" in the top right corner of your account information (underneath the "become a member" box).
Underneath the "Default payment" header your credit card should be mentioned. If this is not the case choose "manage credit cards" to choose a default credit card.
Without a valid default credit card the B&N DRM cannot encrypt a book when downloading. Download problems like you describe are usually caused by the deault credit card.
There are a lot of international Nook owners (I am one of them) that are buying and downloading B&N books this way without a problem, so it should work you also. Do not give up, we are here to help you
