I felt a bit queasy when I read this as I re-purchased some of those Kresley Cole's only last week at full price (replacing PDF versions I had previously purchased when I didn't know any better ).

However, as I am geo-restricted with Amazon the sales didn't apply to me anyway

Both are great series -- you obviously have good taste!

Too much of my reading time spent doing other stuff this week. No new books read.

I'm up to Hide and Seek in my complete Psy/Changeling series reread. (Only one novella and 5 short stories left and I will be finished. Way too early for Shards of Hope, but c'est la vie).

Four Seconds to Lose (Ten Tiny Breaths #3) by K.A. Tucker - $1.99

Kindle

I believe you don’t have years, or months, or weeks to impact a person’s life. You have seconds. Seconds to win them over, and seconds to lose them.

Owning a strip club isn’t the fantasy most guys expect it to be. With long hours, a staff with enough issues to keep a psych ward in business, and the police regularly on his case, twenty-nine-year-old Cain is starting to second-guess his unspoken mission to save the women he employs. And then blond, brown-eyed Charlie Rourke walks through his door, and things get really complicated. Cain abides by a strict “no sleeping with his staff” rule. But being around Charlie challenges Cain’s self-control . . . and it’s been a long time since any woman has done that.

Twenty-two-year-old Charlie Rourke needs a lot of money, really fast, in order to vanish before it’s too late. Taking her clothes off for men makes her stomach curl, but Charlie tells herself that at least she’s putting her acting and dancing skills to good use. And though her fellow dancers seem eager to nab their sexy, sophisticated, and genuinely caring boss, she’s not interested. After all, Charlie Rourke doesn’t really exist—and the girl pretending to be her can’t get distracted by romance.

Unfortunately, Charlie soon discovers that developing feelings for Cain is inevitable, and that those feelings may not be unrequited—but losing him when he finds out what she’s involved with will be more painful than any other sentence awaiting her.

This is my favorite book in the series. I love that there's a bit of suspense in the book.

MM novella, free. Flight Risk - L.A. Witt

Spoiler:

Fighter pilot Bennett “Roid-Rage” McKinney has had a crush on one of his squadron mates, Aaron “Tex” Austin, for ages. The snarly RIO is sexy, sarcastic, gay… everything Bennett wants in a man.

When Tex has a rare night off from the chronic pain caused by an ejection a few years ago, he reaches for the nearest warm body… which just so happens to be Bennett’s.

After a hot night, though, Bennett wakes up alone. Tex starts sending him mixed messages—one minute he wants him, the next he’s cold-shouldering him. Bennett isn’t interested in playing games, not even with the man he’s been lusting after. One night stands are fine, but he’s not getting involved with someone who might disappear at the drop of a hat.

But as the men try to resist each other, he realizes he’s not the only one who’s afraid of getting involved with a flight risk…


This 20,000 word novella was previously published as part of the Unconditional Surrender Military Collection.

NA, Free: Sweet Addiction - J. Daniels
I rated this one a 4.

Spoiler:

From NY Times and USA Today Bestselling author, J. Daniels

Wedding hookups never amount to anything.

Those who partake in this wicked little activity know the rules. Get in. Get laid. Get out. There's no expectation of a relationship. It is what it is.

Dylan Sparks knows the rules. She’s familiar with the protocol. And she engages in the best sex of her life with a complete stranger at her ex-boyfriend’s wedding.

Reese Carroll doesn’t care about the rules. He wants more than just one night with Dylan.

And Dylan finds him too addicting to pass up.

Sweet Addiction is the story of one woman’s struggle to keep things casual, and one man’s desire to never let her go.

**Warning: This books is recommended for readers over the age of 18 due to strong language and explicit sexual content.

[Blue2u]

NA, 159 pgs., part 1 of 3. Highly recommended, by 2 of my favorite authors.

Never Never, a novella series. Book one of three.
Best friends since they could walk. In love since the age of fourteen.
Complete strangers since this morning.
He'll do anything to remember. She'll do anything to forget.

Rock Hard by Nalini Singh $2.18

Spoiler:

In New York Times Bestselling author Nalini Singh's newest contemporary romance, passion ignites between a gorgeous, sinfully sexy man who built himself up from nothing and a shy woman who has a terrible secret in her past...

Wealthy businessman Gabriel Bishop rules the boardroom with the same determination and ruthlessness that made him a rock star on the rugby field. He knows what he wants, and he'll go after it no-holds-barred.

And what he wants is Charlotte Baird.

Charlotte knows she's a mouse. Emotionally scarred and painfully shy, she just wants to do her job and remain as invisible as possible. But the new CEO--a brilliant, broad-shouldered T-Rex of a man who growls and storms through the office, leaving carnage in his wake--clearly has other plans. Plans that may be equal parts business and bedroom.

If Charlotte intends to survive this battle of wits and hearts, the mouse will have to learn to wrangle the T-Rex. Game on.

I loved this one.

Looks like Amazon price-matched Google. But Nalini says that the one on Google is a pirated copy

Uh-oh, I bought it earlier today as soon as I got a price drop alert from ereaderIQ. I wouldn't have done that if I'd known the drop was based on a pirated copy. On the other hand, I wasn't going to buy it at all just yet, so at least Nalini did get a sale, although at a reduced price.

It's not fair to her, but this will be an interesting experiment for her to see how much her sales jump at Amazon based on a lower price.

[library addict]

The Amazon copy is legit. She pointed out the sale on her blog so she's fine with it I'm sure.

Looks like the pirate person has over 90 books for sale at Google. I know I shouldn't be surprised by this, but I am. I get that Rock Hard is self-pubbed, but many of "his" titles aren't. You would think they'd notice the covers, blurbs, etc are all duplicated for the books with publishers. There's a bunch of pretty well-known authors/books (Jayne Ann Krentz, Nora Roberts, George RR Martin, Harper Lee, etc.)

I wonder if Amazon has price matched more of the "sales" or if they have safeguards in place for the agency publishers that they don't have for non-agency publishers/self-publishers. Yikes!
