That's great. I picked up Monica McCarty's Going Dark today too.

Funny but true.... I got it on Hubby's Google Play account. Downloaded it to ADE, disinfected and tried reupload it into Google Play Books on my account. It will not upload. I'm going to have to edit in Calibre to get the app to accept it.

Absolutely, Positively by Jayne Ann Krentz on sale for $1.99

Spoiler:

Molly Abberwick, trustee of her father's foundation and owner of Seattle's Abberwick Tea and Spice Company, has every intention of firing her new consultant. True, he's brilliant, sexy, and fascinating, but he's also arrogant, over-bearing and impossible.

Dr. Harry Stratton Trevelyan has his own plans. To Molly's shock, he proposes a no-strings attached affair. Molly can't believe that he thinks there is any such thing as a simple, no-commitment relationship. But there is this strange attraction between them... Turns out Harry Trevelyan has a secret side. It involves paranormal premonitions and his family composed of carnival illusionists, daredevils and psychics.

Before Harry and Molly can find a way to overcome their personal issues, violence and a mysterious stalker crash into their lives. Now these two mis-matched people will have to find a way to work together to survive.

This is the self-published version from after she got the rights back but as far as I know there weren't any changes to the text. (I have the original digital version from Pocket).

"Robert Gellis has an extraordinary talent!"—Affaire de Coeur

With more than 8 million books in print RT Book Reviews Lifetime Achievement Award-winning author Roberta Gellis is the master of the medieval romance.

Lissa never much liked her elderly husband, but she certainly hadn't suspected he was plotting treason. When she's suddenly left a widow, the sharp gaze of the king's head investigator turns straight to her. Sir Justin is honor-bound to treat Lissa as a suspect, but keeping his distance from the beautiful temptress requires every ounce of his legendary self-control.

As King John's court swirls with intrigue, tempers are high, passions are hot, and one wrong move could change the course of history.

"A rich tapestry...delightfully imagined."—Publisher's Weekly

"Only a consummate writer of Ms. Gellis's talents could bring the Middle Ages so brilliantly alive."—Rave Reviews

My most favorite romance author, and one of only a couple that I follow, is Joan Wolf. One of her titles, White Horses (apa by Silhouette as A Dangerous Masquerade), has dropped to $1.99 at Kindle and Kobo US. With that said, IMO, this is one of her middling titles, not one of her very best, but also IMO, that still makes it pretty darn good .

Spoiler:

January 1813—the British army is preparing to cross the Pyrenees and advance against Napoleon's army. Only one thing stands in the way—funds. It will take two people masquerading as lovers to carry out a dangerous plan…

Despite inheriting the traveling Cirque Equestre—France's proudest equestrian tradition—Gabrielle Rochon has no loyalty to the emperor who destroyed her family's way of life. Independent and headstrong, she pledges to help the British army, knowing her late father would have done the same. But her mission to smuggle gold across France within the cirque to the Duke of Wellington's headquarters in Spain is one the British won't let her do alone.

Colonel Leo Branford—an arrogant, striking foreigner—is ordered to play the part of her husband so that he may escort the gold without arousing enemy suspicions.

While Gabrielle is annoyed that she must publicly bow to his every whim, the danger of the mission binds them in a disturbingly intimate way. With French troops precariously close to uncovering their charade, it is imperative that neither of them forget their purpose…or themselves.

"Heyer was one of the great protagonists of the historical novel in the post-war golden age..." —Philippa Gregory

Considered the book that launched Gerogette Heyer's career, These Old Shades features two of Heyer's most memorable characters: Justin Alastair, the Duke of Avon, and Leonie, whom he rescues from a life of ignominy and comes to love and marry.

The Duke is known for his coldness of manner, his remarkable omniscience, and his debauched lifestyle. Late one evening, he is accosted by a young person dressed in ragged boy's clothing running away from a brutal rustic guardian. The Duke buys "Leon" and makes the child his page. "Leon" is in fact Leonie, and she serves the Duke with deep devotion. When he uncovers the true story of her birth, he wreaks an unforgettable revenge on her sinister father in a chilling scene of public humiliation.
