So it's official zero purchases for me this week! Yay me!!!

sounds like something I would do.

Two from today's DA daily bargains post:

Love's Promise - Cheryl Holt - $0.99

Hot On Her Trail - Sable Hunter - Free

The Sable Hunter book is erotic romance, and apparently has some pretty crazysauce stuff going on, but hey, at least it's free.

Anyone watch tidbits of the Royal Wedding yesterday? It was so beautiful even if I couldn't understand a word. So I am reading The Cowboy and the Princess by Lori Wilde ($1.99) which is book two in the Jubilee, Texas series. It just seem like perfect timing for this book. So that's why I am now just getting up! Stayed up late reading it and still only at 20%. Her Characterization is so in-depth that is takes chapters. This is my second book by her and I am putting her on my autobuy list.

I only purchased 1 book this week Nalini Singh's Heart of Obsidian.

I also used one of my DANL credits today to buy One Day in Apple Grove by CH Admirand. I read the first book in the series this morning (A Wedding in Apple Grove). After a slow and overly-Mayberry start, I ended up loving it.

I was very good the past week; I only bought:

Lost in You by Heidi McLaughlin ($0.69)
The Brazen Trilogy by Elizabeth Boyle ($2.99)

I think this had more to do with being almost totally immersed in the Psy-Changeling series than actual willpower

I just completed (actually, reread) Kiss of Snow and I may start Wild Invitation tonight. I'm so very close to Heart of Obsidian

I have one of Ainslie's other books, Grease Monkey Jive, on my TBR. That one features ballroom dancing, has gotten good reviews at DA and Smexybooks, and was one of the introductory books for a new Australian category romance line. This one is a long novella that's follow-up but I don't think you have to read the first book. According to the blurb, the heroine skates Roller Derby at night, so I'm guessing she's not a pushover. I don't like weak heroines, so this really appeals to me.

I'd definitely recommend Grease Monkey Jive. I bought it based a DA review and it was very enjoyable. The story was fresh, and it's lovely the way the two characters come to like and then fall in love with each other. I bought another one of hers - Getting Real - but I haven't read it yet.

Guitar Girl by Casey Quinn
Blind Attraction by Eden Summers
Mr. Darcy's Noble Connections by Abigail Reynolds

Yes and it was so lovely. *sniff* *sniff* It made me want to read a story with a princess in it. I took a look at all the HQs because it one of their main tropes but I couldn't decide where to start first. So I am reading the one princess book I have already on my Kindle.

Hey Blue2u, I see you had Extreme Love by Abby Niles on a purchase list from last week. Have you read it yet? It just popped up on my Kindle recommendations list and it looks good.

Gotta plan for the next big Kobo code.
