A Matter of Circumstance and Celludrones US DE by Claire Robyns, a steampunk romance. Robyns has published two straight historicals and a contemporary with Carina Press.

A Victorian Steampunk/Paranormal adventure with strong elements of romance...

Lady Lily d'Bulier is prim, proper, and prefers to think of herself as pragmatic rather than timid. And avoiding life-threatening situations at all costs is just plain practical. But everything changes when Lord Adair tracks her down in London; searching for answers he seems to think she has.

Greyston Adair is a blackguard and a smuggler, although British Customs will have to catch him red-handed to prove the latter. Fortunately, the dirigibles they float around in have never been able to get near his air dust.

Hell is rising, One Demon at a Time...

With Lady Ostrich hunting them, and the mystery of how their lives tie back to Cragloden Castle and the powerful McAllister clan, Lily has no option but to throw propriety to the wind and run off with Greyston to Scotland, away from the immediate danger and toward possible answers.

Voodoo or Die US DE by Stephanie Bond. It's listed under romance, although Amazon calls it a humorous mystery. Well, maybe it's one with strong romantic elements. I like the picture on the cover!

When a female attorney relocates to the quaint town of Mojo, Louisiana to take over the practice of a dead man, she thinks the welcome gift on her office doorstep is sweet...until she opens it to find a voodoo doll! After a horrible death occurs that's a little too close for comfort, she can no longer ignore the power of the evil doll...and frantically realizes her secret past might be catching up with her.

Autumn's Flame US DE by Denise Domning. Another volume in this series was free a few weeks ago.

Forth offering in the series following the admirable FitzHenry's, Denise Domning leaves us mesmerized and wishing for at least five more brothers left to tell about. Since the death of her father, Lady Elyssa of Freyne has been given as wife twice by the courts, both times to abusive husbands. Now, upon news of her second husband's death, the indomitable redhead is desperate to remain free of any man's control as she petitions the courts to give her sole custody of her young son. When her petition is denied, it is Geoffery FitzHenry, Lord Caudray, sheriff of the shire that must take the spurned firebrand to ward and make a man of her spoiled son. Hideously scarred by the madness of his first wife, Geoffrey's wounds go much deeper than just his physical appearance. The people of his shire regard him as evil; the devil's own spawn and the small daughter that he longs to embrace is incapable of looking at him without fear in her eyes. Yet, the Lady Elyssa is oblivious to his scars as she meets his intimidating gaze with a temper that flames as bright as her hair. When the High Sheriff sends her son away to squire out to his brother, Lady Alyssa resolves to ignore her growing attraction for the man that holds her destiny with such blatant disregard - a resolve that proves more difficult by the day. Until the innocent love of a child brings healing to hearts meant for one another.

Also free by Denise Domning are repeat freebies Lady in Waiting and Almost Perfect.

Virtual Strangers US DE by Lynne Barrett-Lee (first: Bantam 2001).

Fed up, frustrated and fast approaching forty, Charlie Simpson hasn’t had many high points in her life just lately. The only peak on the horizon is her ambition to climb Everest, if she could only get organised and save up the cash.
Unfortunately, though, she has more pressing things to deal with; her eldest son moving out, her father moving in, and her best friend moving two hundred miles away. She finds solace, however, via her newly acquired modem, when she stumbles upon a stranger who’s a like-minded soul. Like-minded, perhaps, but no fantasy dream date. Though virtual, he’s of the real-life variety – he may be a hero, but he has a wife.
Charlie hasn’t got a husband, but she certainly has principles, and they’re about to be hauled up a mountain themselves. And, of course, her mum’s always said she shouldn’t talk to strangers. The question is, is now the time to start breaking the rules?
