Okay, UK & US store direct links for the Kobo Black Friday sale (Canada already posted upthread here).

There's some overlap between each country's lists, but the overall selection seems to differ (and the US has an extra Religious/Spirituality category which the other countries don't), and when I tried one of the UK lists in my Canadian account, a number of the books were available and seem to be at a reasonably low price, even if perhaps not as low as the UK sale amount.

UK links: Fiction, Thrillers, Romance, Non-Fiction, Kids/YA
US links: Great Fiction, Romance, Mystery, Non-Fiction, Inspiring, YA

There's actually some pretty nice stuff in each store's lists and I might end up topping up the gift card balances in my auxiliary non-Canadian accounts (though this probably means another walk out to Chapters to pick up a Kobo gift card, since for some reason I can't get the e-gift-certificates purchaseable online to work for the US auxiliary).

Enjoy!

Does anyone know when the Kobo sale ends? I haven't got my birthday money yet as my mom's check is still lost. There is a chance it could come today which would be great as today is actually my Birthday.

I just hope the sale lasts if not.

Kobo's sale is good through Sunday, according to the main promo page which not everyone can see, and then they say they're planning something for Cyber Monday.

Happy birthday, Blossom!

Black Rock: A Time for Love by E. G. Parsons, an f/m western historical time-travel romantic suspense originally out from The Wild Rose Press in 2008.

After the death of her father, Roxanne leaves Boston and returns to the family ranch in Texas. Still mourning and trying to readjust to life on the ranch, her nightmares of the mysterious black rock return. Life for Roxanne becomes even more confusing when she meets sexy neighbor, Collin O’Neal. Despite being the rudest man she’s ever met and his fear of commitment, Collin can turn her brain to mush and set her soul afire with just a look. While struggling to remain the lady she was raised to be, Roxanne must deal with another man trying to stake his claim. Bradford Wellman is handsome, charming, and obsessed with making her his bride. Unknown to Roxanne, both Brad and Collin have reasons other than romance for getting close to her.

Changing Plans by Lambda Award-finalist L. A. Witt, a mini-collection of three m/m contemporary romance novellas. Witt is a Samhain & Dreamspinner Press author.

From EPIC Award winning author and two-time Lambda Finalist L.A. Witt comes the re-release of three hot contemporary novellas -- Getting off the Ground, Infinity Pools, and On The List.

After being stood up at the altar, compulsive over-planner Elliott Chandler decides to turn his honeymoon on Oahu into a vacation for one. Fate puts a hitch in his plans, however, when the airport is snowed in and his flight is delayed.

In the terminal, the jilted groom catches the eye of another stranded traveler: the laidback and very sexy Derek Windsor. Derek breaks the ice and strikes up a conversation, and as the temperature drops outside, the heat between them rises. Pity they’re both going to different islands, but if their flight doesn’t get off the ground fast, Mr. Calm-and-Cool may just tempt Mr. Play-It-Safe into doing something reckless.

And that plane isn’t going anywhere any time soon…

Touched by Fire by Gwyneth Atlee aka Colleen Thompson, an f/m historical romance originally out from Zebra in 1999.

TAINTED BY SCANDAL

Divorced, disgraced, robbed of her legacy and her pride, a desperate Hannah Shelton stages her own death and leaves the Pennsylvania home town that scorns her. Passing herself off as an innocent mail-order bride, she arrives in Wisconsin to meet her future husband--never anticipating the flames of passion that will sear her soul, and send her into the arms of another man.

TEMPTED BY DESIRE

Strong, steadfast John Aldman is pleased with his pretty bride-to-be, but it is his brother, Daniel, whose every glance, every gesture touches Hannah's heart with fire. Just when desire threatens to burn out of control, Hannah's deception is discovered, sparking off bitterness that may cost her Daniel's love. Now, while raging brushfires blaze through the land-as red hot and unstoppable as the passion of two lovers-Hannah knows she must confront her past...before she can claim a love destined to burn brightly forever.

A Perfect Duet by Jennifer Malin, an f/m Regency historical romance novella which was originally published in the Zebra anthology With This Ring, according to the blurb.

Meek Miranda Granville comes alive at the pianoforte--except when Andrew Owen is beside her. His playing moves her, but his critiques of her spoil the effect.

As for Andrew, he only wants to share his training with her, but he always seems to botch it. The trouble is he’d rather run his fingers over her than the keyboard, but she’s promised to his rogue of a cousin.

When his cousin stands her up at the village bonfire, Andrew gets his chance to strike a chord with Miranda, but to do it, he’ll have to outplay both his rival and Miranda's father.

Penny Watson writes a cute, humorous, slightly paranormal series about the 5 sons of Santa Claus who all help run the family toy business at the North Pole. She's written novellas for three of the brothers over the past few years and is currently selling a box set of the stories for $0.99.

The Klaus Brothers Box Set

I'd definitely recommend these Xmas romance reads, and you get the whole series for just 99 cents!

Oh and Happy Birthday, Blossom! Hope it's a great day for you.

Happy Birthday Blossom

mikaelalind · 11-29-2014, 11:08 AM

Am I the only one that feels like Amazon is the only place with good deals lately? Few coupon codes I can use at Kobo, fewer publishers eligible for rewards at Allromance ( Sourcebook isn't eligible anymore.)

I am seriously thinking of buying a Kindle for my next e-reader ( since the options in Sweden is fewer. And getting fewer).

Happy Birthday, Blossom!

This wasn't on my wishlist but it sounds good and rated 4.08 w/800+ ratings so I grabbed it.

Blossom · 11-29-2014, 03:30 PM

Thank you all for the birthday wishes. It' been a quiet day. Hubby is working late and kind of grumpy. We celebrated my Birthday yesterday because we knew he be at work. I've got a slight migraine probably because in the first time in two weeks the sun is out. Still hoping mama gets her check today so I get my Birthday money so I can buy something before all the sales are over. So relieved I was able to buy my Kindle Fire 6 and Case myself or I think I'd be a little down right now.

Blue2u Wizard Posts: 1,974 Karma: 5879093 Join Date: Mar 2012 Location: CA Device: Kindle Paperwhite	Loved this one, NA $.99 True Love Story - Willow Aster Spoiler: Growing up in an idealistic home, Sparrow Fisher is sheltered and innocent. When she meets Ian Sterling, a musician who is rising in popularity, she instantly falls for his charm. They run into each other over the next few months and eventually begin an unconventional relationship. At different places in their lives, Sparrow is off to college in New York, and Ian is traveling the country with the band. When they see each other, all seems wonderful and lighthearted, but when they’re apart, Sparrow is left to wonder if Ian really cares about her the way he says he does, or if she’s just another pretty face to him. Once their relationship steadies, they’re both happier than they’ve ever been, and it’s hard to not get caught up in the magic they have together. Until something so devastating comes to light that threatens to shatter everything they’ve built with each other. True Love Story is a story about the real highs and lows that come with a relationship—happiness, pain, angst, and finding out if love really is enough.
