Heads Up

For those who took advantage of this Downpour trial membership, watch your dates. Unless you cancel your membership before the monthly renewal date, you will be charged for another month.

My offer expired on 05 Mar, so I got my free audiobook today -- The Name of the Rose -- and then cancelled my membership.

Audible Daily Deal -- exp 03 Mar @ 11:59pm ET


$3.95 -- Flat Spin -- David Freed / Ray Porter (9.1 hrs)

Quote:
Mysteries & Thrillers > Suspense

Series: A Cordell Logan Mystery, book 1

The irresistible David Freed’s first mystery is a stay-up-late-to-finish thriller.

Based in sunny Rancho Bonita - “California’s Monaco”, as the city’s moneyed minions like to call it - Cordell Logan is a literate, sardonic flight instructor and aspiring Buddhist with dwindling savings and a shadowy past. When his beautiful ex-wife, Savannah, shows up out of the blue to tell him that her husband has been murdered in Los Angeles, Logan is quietly pleased. Savannah’s late husband, after all, is Arlo Echevarria, the man she left Logan for.

Logan and Echevarria were once comrades-in-arms assigned to a top secret military assassination team known simply as Alpha. Though Savannah was never privy to the gritty details of their assignment, she suspects that Echevarria’s death must be related to the work he did for the government. The only problem is that the LAPD can find no record of Echevarria ever having toiled for Uncle Sam. Savannah wants Logan to tell the police what he knows. At first he refuses, but then, relying on his small, aging airplane, The Ruptured Duck, and on the skills he honed working for the government, Logan doggedly hunts Echevarria’s killer.

His trail takes him from the glitzy Las Vegas Strip to the most dangerous ghettos of inner-city Oakland, from darkened Russian Mafia haunts in West Los Angeles to the deserts of Arizona. Along the way, Logan is stalked by a mysterious motorist who repeatedly tries to kill him - but that’s the least of his problems. It is his love-hate relationship with Savannah, a woman for whom Logan continues to pine in spite of himself, that threatens to consume him.

Transcending the worlds of murder, aviation, and international counterterrorism, Flat Spin resonates with a veracity that only an author who knows his subject firsthand can deliver.

$4.99 -- Midnight Vengeance -- Lisa Marie Rice / Elizabeth Hart (8.2 hrs)

Quote:
Romance > Contemporary

Series: Men of Midnight, book 1

Morton "Jacko" Jackman isn't afraid of anything. He's a former navy SEAL sniper, and he's been in more firefights than most people have had hot meals. Lauren Dare scares the crap out of him.

Gorgeous, talented and refined, she's the type of woman who could never be interested in a roughneck like him. So he's loved her fiercely in secret, taken her art classes and kept a watchful but comfortable distance. Until now.

Lauren has finally found a home in Portland, far from her real identity, far from the memories of her mother's death and outside the reaches of the drugged-out psycho who's already tried to kill her twice. One tiny misstep—a single photograph—shatters it all. She has no choice but to run again, but this time she'll give herself a proper farewell: one night with Jacko.

Their highly charged emotional encounter changes everything. In Jacko's arms there cannot be fear—there can only be pleasure. Anyone wishing her harm will have to pass through him, and Jacko is a hard man to kill.

Audible $5.95 members only sale.

http://www.audible.com/mt/BH-Sale-20...3890_171020280

It's rare, but non-members can at least see the titles on sale. If any of these inspire you, you might check to see if you're eligible for a trial membership. Good luck.

Very cruel of them to point out the ones in my wishlist that they have on sale...that is, if I were a member.

That's REALLY weird. The whole point of paying for LL, other than preserving credits, is to get member sales and pricing.
I would complain to CS.

Nothing from my wish list is on sale, alas. There seem to be a lot of pretty good books, especially in the mystery/thriller category--alas again; I've already bought or listened to them! I can recommend The Kind Worth Killing, the two Kimberly McCreight books, and The Good Girl. Thumbs down on One Step Too Far (the only book I've ever returned in disgust; it's chick lit, not suspense) and Pretty Girls (over-the-top gratuitous, stomach-turning violence).

I highly recommend The Grace of Kings and The Mechanical (two of my favorite books from 2015, which was an excellent year) and also Nexus.

I'm an LL'er and the banner shows up at the webpage that link that skinmaan gave sends me to and on the landing page when I go to www.audible.com.

Wasn't the price in the last sale of this kind $4.95 instead of $5.95? I'm pretty sure that it was. I hope that Audible is not going to make this the new price for all sales of this kind. But if the quality of the offerings is much better than it was in the last sale of this kind, there may be some worth buying at that price.

The First Book in the Heroes of Quantico Series. Audible--$20.95; WS Deal Only $3.99!

Thanks to an 100% drop (from $7.55) in the regular digital price of the ebook, and a regularly-priced Whispersync companion of only $3.99, this becomes a super Whispersync deal at the present time. Members-only Audible Sale, eat your hearts out. ha

The book is published by Revell, a publisher of books directed to Christians, so I would expect this book to be veryclean.

Author(s): Irene Hannon.
Price: $3.99 ($0.00 ebook (marked down) + $3.99 Whispersync audio).

Amazon URL (can get the whole Whispersync deal here): http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00B5J4Q14/.
Comments: There appear to be 3 books in the "Heroes of Quantico" series.
Book Description (Amazon):
Her life is in danger--and so is his heart.

For FBI Hostage Rescue Team member Evan Cooper and his partner, dignitary protection duty should have been a piece of cake. Unfortunately, beautiful but determined Monica Callahan isn't making it easy. Estranged from her diplomat father--who is involved in a sensitive hostage situation in the Middle East--she refuses to be intimidated by a related terrorist threat back in the States. That is, until a chilling warning convinces her that the danger is very real--and escalating.

As Coop and his partner do their best to keep her safe, the threat against Monica is rising. And with every second that ticks by, Coop knows that the odds of saving the only woman who has ever breached the walls around his heart are dropping. After all, terrorists aren't known for their patience--or their mercy.

Irene Hannon is the author of more than twenty-five novels. Her books have been honored with the coveted RITA® Award from Romance Writers of America, the HOLT Medallion, and the Reviewer's Choice Award from
Romantic Times BOOKreviews magazine. A former corporate communications executive with a Fortune 500 company, Irene now writes full time. In her spare time, she enjoys singing, long walks, cooking, gardening, traveling, and spending time with family. She and her husband make their home in Missouri.

Thanks for the post.

I actually got an email message about it. When I opened it I saw about 8 items. I thought that that was it. There must have been a link to the rest of them, that I didn't see.

The Willpower book by Roy Baumeister is in the Audible $5.95 sale. Save a nickel! Seriously, there may be some advantage for you to buy from Audible instead of Downpour, I dunno, so that's why I mention it.

Save a nickle at Audible, perhaps, but Downpour's are DRM-Free (all I've ever checked and I think their site somewhere confirms that all are, but you might check that).

With the Audible Manager, you can load audiobooks to most MP3 players, anyway, but it is another piece of software to authorize and manage. And you depend on Audible to maintain backups (for audio, I suspect some don't download all of their books, just due to size). With DRM-Free, you can play where you want, convert formats, make backups, etc.
