It's a dangerous game you set to play, Miss Corbett. One that can have far worse than deadly consequences!

In the midst of the struggle of America's bid for independence, Hannah Corbett makes a fateful decision, descending into a world of deceit. Spurred by revenge, she heads to New York, setting in motion a dangerous game for which there is no return. Searching desperately for the man who betrayed her family, she faces the cold and brutal reality of the life of a spy. Caught in a web of lies, living with betrayal, she is trapped. She has nowhere to turn except to a man it would be treasonous to love, setting duty and desire at war. Her heart is ripped apart when she must choose between the man who risks his career and life to protect her and the only thing that has remained constant in her life...her belief in her cause.

Yet destiny has not intervened in their lives without cause. Rebekah’s strength, courage, and breathtaking sensuality set within Jonathan a desire he swore never to feel again.

Now Jonathan and Rebekah must face the perilous threat together—only to discover a passion they never imagined...

The media has no tack posting such pictures and only later did they finally post a disclaimer warning you about the pictures and videos.

You are close. Just finally decieded on Patricia Rice's This Magic Moment. Just the right amount of history but with a little Malcolm Magic thrown in.

This will be released for $3.99 everywhere else in May.

It's funny just today I was thinking of this book and gonna pre-order it. I love how the author writes dialogue in her racing books. Making each character truly unique so excited to see what she does with New Adult Romance.

I had this on my wishlist

I think this is a unique promo. Originally they were gonna do a giveaway at DA but she had to close the post due to someone saying some horrible things about the author just from reading a small excerpt.

Lots of repeat freebies today, and grabbed 1 $.99 deal that I've been watching for a bit. Broken at Love by Lyla Payne, blurb and link:

When a knee injury ends twenty-year-old Quinn Rowland’s pro tennis career, he’s not only dumped by his hot Russian girlfriend but ordered to attend college by his disinterested billionaire father. A rich kid who’s not used to being disappointed by life, Quinn and his sociopathic half-brother Sebastian create a frat house game intended to treat girls how they see them—as simple game pieces to be manipulated for their pleasure.

College sophomore Emilie Swanson knows Quinn’s reputation—after all, he did send one of her sorority sisters into therapy earlier in the semester—but the game and his charm bring them closer together and soon she starts to believe there’s more to Quinn than people think.

But what if the more is something darker than a game of toying with emotions and breaking hearts?

Did you see that If You Stay is now released by Hachette? It's suppose to have a bonus scene so I rebought it while it's just 99 cents.

I like to return the old version but at 99 cents It's not worth the hassle to contact Kindle Support. Ah well $2 isn't bad for a book.

Where does it say about the bonus scene? I'm not seeing anything in the description over at Amazon or Goodreads. I bought it on Apr 7 so it's past the 7-day refund period

I was thinking of getting this one but it took me reading one review to change my mind. I'm looking at The Bet. It's $0.99 at Kobo too, so I might just pick it over there with a coupon.

I bought The Bet when it first came on for $.99, but haven't read it yet.

Re: If You Stay, already read it [and got it for $.99], gave it 3 stars and likely wouldn't read it again, JMO Didn't have strong feelings one way or the other.

On her website it says:

The new version will contain never-before-seen bonus material, a preview of the second book in the series (IF YOU LEAVE) AND it will be $.99 for a limited time. So, if you’ve already bought the original version and you’d like to read the bonus content ( the wedding night scene from Pax’s point of view),

Yeah I'm past the refund period too but if I contacted Kindle Support they would refund the money if I explain the situation but it's only 99 cents so I'm not going to bother.

I went ahead and bought The Bet. Starting today I'm on leave for the next couple of weeks so I'm hoping to make some headway into the New Adult titles I've been accumulating.

I've got enough NA titles too.

Right now I am still on a historical kick. Just finished Fortune's Mistress (4 Stars) and getting ready to start Fortune's Flame. the heroine is the granddaughter of the h/h in the previous book. I love adventure romance so this is really keeping my interests you know it has to be when I rather read a Paperback than pick up my Kindle and read. I must see what other books Judith E French has written and order them.

It's kind of funny how I decided to read this. Hubby picked up the third book in the series and was ogling the girl on the cover. I snatch it from him. He knows not to do that because it messes with my organization and then I read the back and decided that since I am in a swashbuckling mood this was perfect.

All of these $0.99 books are bad for my budget! SO hard to resist them!

I had this one (Real) on my TBR for a while and it kept popping up so I used my husband's KOBO account and a coupon! lol It was interesting - I'd wait until you can coupon, but definitely worth the read. IMHO.
