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.

Thank you, good to know.

I'll just keep it in my 'watch' list then and hope it comes down at some point.

ETA: Yes, my budget is taking a beating too since this thread and it leading me to EReaderIQ and now Amazon wish list shows sale prices too. Oh well, at least we're getting good deals and saving money is the way I see it.

Grabbed a couple of $.99 deals today. A rockstar book and one that seems to be recommended everywhere I go.

Give Me Love by Kate McCarthy

Evie Jamieson, a former wild child, is not only a headstrong, smart-mouthed trouble magnet, she is also a lead singer with a plan. That plan involves uprooting her band, including her two best friends guitarist Henry and band manager Mac, to Sydney to kick off their dreams of hitting the big time.

Jared Valentine is the older brother of Evie's best friend Mac and also the man determined to make Evie his. They strike up a long distance friendship which suits Evie because she's determined to avoid the distraction of love, not only because it doesn't fit in with her plan, but because twice in the past it has left her for dead. Moving to Sydney, however, has put her directly in Jared's path and he has decided it's the perfect opportunity to make his play.

Unfortunately Jared, co-owner in a business that 'consults' in dangerous hostage and kidnapping situations, makes an enemy who's determined to enact revenge. When his enemy puts Evie in his sights, Jared not only has a fight on his hands to make her his own, but also to keep her alive.

Is accepting the love he's so desperate to give worth the risk to both her heart, and her life?

*Please Note: Kate McCarthy is an Australian author and Australian English, spelling and slang have been used in this book.*

VAIN by Fisher Amelie
If you’re looking for a story about a good, humble girl, who’s been hurt by someone she thought she could trust, only to find out she’s not as vulnerable as she thought she was and discovers an empowering side of herself that falls in love with the guy who helps her find that self, blah, blah, blah...then you’re gonna’ hate my story.

Because mine is not the story you read every time you bend back the cover of the latest trend novel. It’s not the “I can do anything, now that I’ve found you/I’m misunderstood but one day you’ll find me irresistible because of it” tale. Why? Because, if I was being honest with you, I’m a complete witch. There’s nothing redeeming about me. I’m a friend using, drug abusing, sex addict from Los Angeles. I’m every girlfriend’s worst nightmare and every boy’s fantasy.

I’m Sophie Price...And this is the story about how I went from the world’s most envied girl to the girl no one wanted around and why I wouldn’t trade it for anything in the world.

The Rake by Mary Jo Putney for $1.40 is the Diesel Deal of the Day (DRM'd ePub)

Quote:

A man's past doesn't have to map his fate, especially when a woman holds the key to his destiny in this timeless novel by "New York Times" bestselling author and legend in historical romance "Mary Jo Putney"...Disinherited and disgraced, Reginald Davenport's prospects cried for a dire end. But fate has given him one last chance at redemption - by taking his rightful place as the heir of Strickland, his lost ancestral estate. Davenport knows his way around women, yet nothing prepares him for his shocking encounter with Lady Alys Weston. Masquerading as a man in order to obtain a position as estate manager of Strickland, Alys fled a world filled with mistrust and betrayal. She was finished with men - until Strickland's restored owner awakens a passion she thought she would never feel. A passion that will doom or save them both ...if only they can overcome their pasts...

('Older couple' romances are not my thing but this one looks like it'll be a fun romp)

Worth the Wait - $0.99
(I have a good feeling about this one, for some reason)

I started this one and it doesn't look like it's about an 'older couple' after all. Cydney is only thirty-two; I haven't 'met' Gus yet so don't know his age.

Will do! (I thought the Crimson Romance in brackets after the title seemed familiar but couldn't remember where I'd seen it before

)

Blue2u · 04-18-2013, 05:54 PM

Well, for those who were looking but haven't bought it yet, I personally would not recommend 'Haze' by Andrea Wolfe that I posted about Apr 16. I did a lot of skimming just to finish. I'd rate it 1.5, just too much talk about all her thoughts and frankly it seemed boring and unnecessary. JMO

Next I think I'm going to try TRUE by Erin McCarthy that Blossom posted about a couple of days ago.

Loosheesh, hope you enjoy your time off and get lots of great reading in!

SINFULLY SWEET (Boxed Set of 6 FULL LENGTH Novels)

Quote:

Bestselling Authors . . . one delicious boxed set of 6 full-length, “SINFULLY SWEET” romance novels!

Romance novels are like chocolates. You can’t stop with just one . . .

BORN TO BE WILDE by Janelle Denison
SAVIN’ ME by Alannah Lynne
DRIVE ME CRAZY by Marquita Valentine
BABY LOVE by Leslie Kelly
THE PERFECT PROPOSAL by Rhonda Nelson
THE RIGHT CHOICE by Carly Phillips

BORN TO BE WILDE by Janelle Denison
Ex-Marine turned security specialist Joel Wilde thrives on the high-wire thrills that come with his job. And he isn’t about to give all that up to settle down – - not even with a sexy woman like Lora Marshall. Which means that while he’s protecting her from a violent mobster, he’ll need to set a few ground rules to keep things professional. Good thing he’s always been a rule-breaker at heart.

SAVIN’ ME by Alannah Lynne
One step away from the coveted Vice Presidency of her firm, the last thing Kat Owens needs is the distraction of a man. Her client, Erik Monteague, disagrees. He's charming, sexy, seductive, and impossible to ignore. Erik's perfectly executed seduction gets Kat into his bed, but her passionate, loving nature is more than he bargained for. As the carefully constructed walls guarding his heart dissolve, he's forced to make a decision... spend the rest of his life running, or risk being devastated by love again.

DRIVE ME CRAZY by Marquita Valentine
NASCAR racer, Carter Ambrose, has decided to take his doctor’s advice and find a new occupation before another wreck on the track kills him. Only his doctor hadn’t counted on his little sister’s best friend, Melanie Ann Smith, crashing his weeks of solitude with her short skirts and platform heels. Will Carter risk it all for love, or will Melanie be left holding the trophy for second place?

BABY LOVE by Leslie Kelly
When Claudia Warren goes into premature labor in the worst possible place, a handsome stranger comes to her aid, saving her life her daughter. Former rebel Chase Paxton is a loner, and he likes it that way, so delivering a stranger's baby shocks him to his core. Even more shocking is that the beautiful young mother disappears before he can even learn her last name. Now, fate has brought the very sexy, available Claudia back into Chase's life. And while the physical attraction between them sizzles, neither wants any emotional tangles. Can two people who've sworn off love for good ever move beyond the past to trust in a future together?

THE PERFECT PROPOSAL by Rhonda Nelson
Annie Witherspoon has spent the last five years working toward obtaining the CEO position at Hightower Advertising. She's worked nights and weekends, has sacrificed her practically non-existent social life and kept her eyes on the prize, as it were. Now, thanks to some inconvenient, ill-timed bout of nostalgia, her boss is giving his global playboy nephew a shot at her job.
Mitch Hightower isn't nearly the playboy the papers make him out to be and, after the sudden death of his business partner, Mitch feels to need to be closer to his family, to his heritage. But when pitted against Annie Witherspoon to win an important account, Mitch finds himself less concerned with pitching his campaign strategy and more interested in marketing himself...to her.

THE RIGHT CHOICE by Carly Phillips
Advice columnist Carly Wexler is planning the perfect wedding with the perfect fiancé. So what if he doesn’t make her heart beat faster? He’s the right choice. Until sexy photo journalist, Mike Novak, her fiance’s adopted brother arrives and Carly experiences all the passion she’s convinced herself she doesn’t need. Mike is torn by loyalty and a yearning unlike any he’s ever known. After spending time with Carly, he is sure the engaged couple are marrying for the wrong reasons. With one week to go before the wedding, can Mike convince Carly he’s the only choice for her?

So what did you buy this week? I did so good last year in keeping my expense down but hubby has had alot overtime this year and sooo many good deals I can't seem to help myself.

Yesterday I bough More Than Fiends by Maureen Child. It looks like a funny read then you know I bought the pro wrestling series by Pat White. A few NA books, that 6 book set...Today I bought some Eugenia Riley books at Kobo without coupons from their new game.

Is it bad when you lose track of what you purchased in a week?
