I do as well, so I just forward the receipt email to my other email and then to Harlequin with a note about how I get a bounce back if I try to auto-submit the forwarded email. It usually takes a day or two, but they're very helpful with customer service there.

Once they denied me, I just forwarded the email to myself, took out that forward line and send it like that again. I didn't put a note in it. It took only a few hours. But now I get the purchasing emails on the email I get the amazon receipts to, not the one I signed up at HQ with. In my account at HQ, its still got the other email in it. So it will be interesting to see next time I submit if they accept it.

The problem with my last Amazon order and it said something like "Bought this thing plus 6 other items" and none of the books actually showed in my email receipt. I had to take a screencapture of the order receipt to forward to Harlequin. Looking back through all of the Amazon receipts lately they all do that. It used to be the confimation email actually said what you purchased. Now it seems to be mostly an ad for other things they want to sell you.

Delicate Ink by Carrie Ann Ryan
https://www.allromanceebooks.com/pro...42324-147.html

Description
Delicate Ink (Montgomery Ink) by Carrie Ann Ryan - Romance>BDSM

On the wrong side of thirty, Austin Montgomery is ready to settle down. Unfortunately, his inked sleeves and scruffy beard isn’t the suave business appearance some women crave. Only finding a woman who can deal with his job, as a tattoo artist and owner of Montgomery Ink, his seven meddling siblings, and his own gruff attitude won’t be easy.

Finding a man is the last thing on Sierra Elder’s mind. A recent transplant to Denver, her focus is on opening her own boutique. Wanting to cover up scars that run deeper than her flesh, she finds in Austin a man that truly gets to her—in more ways than one.

Although wary, they embark on a slow, tempestuous burn of a relationship. When blasts from both their pasts intrude on their present, however, it will take more than a promise of what could be to keep them together.

I spoke with someone at Harlequin. She said that it is a marketing decision to not have Midnight Rainbow for sale on their site. Not sure if that was just code for she didn't know, but either way it's not for sale there.

So now I am debating if I should buy it with my Google Play balance (which is technically free) or wait to see if it goes on sale. $7.49 is just excessive for a category-length book IMO.

All in My Head by Kristen James

Spoiler:

Avery Waldorf wakes up from a concussion to find a voice inside her head—an adventurous male voice belonging to Marcus, who doesn’t know where he came from, but has an opinion on everything about her life. She just wants to work on her screenplay, go to her writing classes and flirt with the guy of her dreams, Nash, who is finally noticing her.

Marcus wants to get up at dawn, run, snowboard, and basically take over her life, and even her body at times. He thinks she’s freaking hot and does not like Nash touching her. Marcus may be smart, talented at snowboarding, drawing and playing the guitar, but he’s not real! When she needs help, she has to call Nash.

She can’t tell anyone about Marcus without sounding like she’s crazy. Meanwhile Marcus doesn’t know where he’ll go if he leaves her mind. Does he need her help? Could he have a body out there waiting for him? More oddly, could she fall for a voice? Maybe she is losing it…

I read this and enjoyed it although the heroine got on my nerves because she was pretty indecisive. Still I'd recommend it. As you can tell from the blurb, it's a bit different than the usual NA.

https://www.allromanceebooks.com/pro...74219-355.html

Description
Circe's Recruits: Roane (Circe's Recruits) by Marie Harte - Erotica>Multiple Partner

NOTE: This book is a re-release. It’s been given a new cover and minor edits, but is the same otherwise as the first edition.

In the three years since Project Dawn disbanded, Roane Weston and his men continue to fight the good fight. Now civilians, his squad–Circe’s Recruits–works for a private organization bent on cleaning up the mess left in the wake of Project Dawn’s rebirth. Run by Elliot Pearl, a ruthless millionaire, Pearson Labs continues to create Circs, people who have been genetically changed. When needed, these Circs take on an altered form, one neither man nor animal, but something in between. But unlike Roane and his squad, the Circs coming out of Pearson Labs aren’t sane… Except for Caitlyn Chase, a female Roane can’t get out of his mind.

As Caitlyn matures into the Circ she was meant to be, she sets in motion a chain of events that will forever alter her future and those of Circe’s Recruits. In the process, she’ll fall in lust, in love with Roane, and in danger as she finally finds out who she really is. Only with Roane and her newfound friends can she hope to keep the PPA at bay while they crush an agenda that may spell the end of them all.

WARNING: This book contains sexual content readers may find fascinating: group play, m/m, m/f, m/m/f and more. Expect government conspiracies, rough Marines, genetic experiments, and Shifters unlike the kind you think you know. This book is not for the faint of heart. Enjoy!

I had that book on my wish list it just sounds so over the top!

Checking In real quick:

I'm still reading the Ruth Wind Christmas book and Plum's latest on my K3. I just ordered a Kobo HD Glo!!! I got a really good deal on it by ordering from Chapters. So I'm ready to get into some serious reading now. This year I read very little and I miss it. My Bedroom has really bright lighting so eInk is ideal to use. Tablets have alot of glare in here.

I gave my niece my two K4s which in here just looked really bad to read on. The screen on the black looked green and the silver was much better with its grey background which is weird because in TN it looked horrible which is why I got the black K4. The Paperwhite looks even more washed out than ever. The K3 looks amazing as always. I plan to get rid of the PW1. I'm keeping my K3.
