Currently only free for UK Kindle customers, but suspect it will be for US customers, as well, soon:
Second Sight Dating by Marianne Stephens (UK link). Pre-order for February 14, 2011. Book Description Psychic Serena Xavier owns Second Sight Dating, a matchmaking business. Although successful in matching others, her "second sight" failed miserably in finding herself a trustworthy man. Detective Dan Carrington becomes one of her clients as part of an undercover investigation. His job is to find out if her business is legitimate or a cover for a sex-for-hire scheme, possibly with mob connections. All vibrations from Dan lead Serena to believe he's being honest with her. Upon catching him snooping through her files, she has to consider the possibility that he's a gigolo looking to secure clients through her business. Despite doubts about each other's honesty, a growing attraction leads to a night of passion. Serena wonders who he really is, as Dan ponders her true business motives. Also, run over to Ellora's Cave and grab it there for free, in your choice of DRM-free formats (use Mobi for transfer to your Kindle). This is from Ellora's Cave Blush imprint, so there are no graphic love scenes, just suggestive romance. |

Puzzazz has introduced an interesting looking variant of Sudoku, Symdoku Unbound #1 ($2.99), for the Kindle. Rather than numbers or letters (Wordoku Unbound #1 has you use letters from a word in each square). I found Wordoku more difficult in some ways, as it seems to force a different part of your brain to solve the puzzle, so I suspect this one will be more challenging as well. From the pictures, it looks like you use the letters at the left side of the Kindle keyboard to enter the symbols (or the 5-way controller), so you don't have to fight with the SYM key or the number keys.
Book Description Enjoy the challenge of Sudoku? Then this uniquely designed puzzle book is just for you. Symdoku takes the original Sudoku to a whole new level using shapes, instead of numbers. Fortunately, you don't have to draw the symbols, just match them up with the corresponding keys, and you're on your way. This unbound puzzle collection gives you a great solving experience right on the page. Of course, you can use in-cell notes as you solve, just like you do on paper. If you're stuck, move on to a different puzzle -- you can always turn back to that page later. Or, get a hint and keep going. You'll be both challenged and delighted with this book of 100 puzzles that fit your personal skill level, because you can change from easy to medium to hard or back at any time. Whatever your skill and solving style, you'll appreciate that each puzzle can be played at three levels of difficulty. |

Welcome to the home of "productive laziness". Here there is a more focused approach to project management and our efforts are exercised where it really matters - there's no rushing round involving ourselves in unimportant, non-critical activities that others can better address, or indeed that do not need addressing at all in some cases. Instant MBA, by Nicholas Bate Book Description The benefits of a Master of Business Administration (MBA) degree can be massive: fast-track career advancement, a big fat wage packet, the whole high-flying top-notch executive lifestyle.

Bridge To Happiness, by Jill Barnett, free in the Kindle store.
Book Description From the luxury of San Francisco's famous hills to the wild freedom of the majestic snow-covered Sierra Mountains, BRIDGE TO HAPPINESS is the intensely dramatic story of one woman's life, the idyllic moments, her humanity, her love, and finally, the difficult road she must walk alone...to discover the strong woman she is destined to become. When March Randolph meets Mike Cantrell, she has no idea how her life will change, and how time will change her. For over three decades she and Mike forge a marriage, a family and a business together, helping to make snowboarding into a popular, worldwide winter sport, and raising four strong-willed and independent children into a adulthood, never once fearing the future won't be as golden as their past. In a heartbeat everything changes, and March and her family suffer a tragic change, one that drives a schism into her once perfect life, and will test the bonds of love and family far beyond any definition of recovery. Suddenly March is stuck in the past, unable to move forward, and only if she, alone, finds the strength and will to move on, can any of the Cantrells have a single, glimmer of hope at a new life of happiness. |
