It was originally from the Thriller 2: Stories You Just Can't Put Down anthology (from MIRA). That's the version I just bought as I didn't realize it had a connected story in it. Plus I used one of my free Harlequin My Rewards codes.

She just "reprinted" it, along with two other short stories in a Kindle only collection: Secret Hideaway.

Secret Hideaway (kindle) includes:
  • Secret Hideaway (originally in Sweet Dreams anthology May 2015) story from her Texas Rangers series
  • On the Run (originally in Thriller 2: Stories You Just Can't Put Down anthology June 2009) story from her US Marshals series
  • Cold Moonlight (originally in Thriller 3: Love is Murder anthology June 2012) story from her Black Falls

I just tagged it as #8 (rather than #7.5) because even though it's not a full-length book, the first book in the series is a novella from the days before the whole .5 numbering system became in vogue. So it goes #1 novella, #2 full-length, #3, etc so it made sense to me to keep using whole numbers. Also,
Cold Moonlight is listed as #4 at Fiction DB and on her website in the Black Falls series - again a whole number for a short story (not even novella length).

I tend to use whatever the author's website starts out with for my numbering. That's why I also use whole numbers rather than .5s for the In Death novellas. And that's why I have Nalini Singh's Rock Courtship as #2 as that's the way it was listed for well over a year on her website. And though I have gone back and renumbered a few series to make novellas/short stories x.5 in Calibre, I stopped doing so as some authors change back and I can't keep up. I'm not on Goodreads so their numbering system not matching mine doesn't bother me. They have a number of books labelled incorrectly in their data there and many that are part of series aren't even recognized as such so... The same with FictionDB and Fantastic Fiction. Plus often the numbering systems between the three of those sites don't even match.

TL;DR version #8 for the US Marshals series is a short story
K thanks...I'll have a look.

reason I was confused is because it specifies something about if you have had multiple deals on this before you are not eligible. I only had one deal, not multiple, so I was confused.

I still have a year and I will use the heck out of it. So much more in KU now than the first time I had it when they first started the program. Montlake has so much more now and so many authors have gone in, especially with series. It makes great for binge reading.

So I guess Amazon is fragmented as far as departments and one hand doesn't know what the other foot does? Allrighty then.
I didn't realize I didn't qualify. I purchased another 2 years and it appears to have gone thru. Under my billing status it says: on 8/8/17 your membership will roll over to a 24 month membership.

This is why so many of us get twitchy at the thought of reading a series out of order.

Huh. Wonder why my account was treated differently than yours?

It makes me laugh in this instance.

Next up in order of expiration is an older Heather Graham time travel novel. Gotta love all the genres you can find under the big umbrella called romance!

mine too. I'm leaving it and just making a note to check it next summer, to make sure it does roll over properly.

ETA: Mine did not say that at first. It took several hours for it to update with the new info about rolling over instead of switching to monthly.

Penny McCall is releasing her romantic suspense books in digital. I picked up All Jacked Up for 99 cents at Kobo but Amazon has it too. The second one in the series has yet to be released but the third and fourth are released. I'm going to wait for a good coupon to get them.

I have them in paperback (unread) and they were originally published by Berkley Sensation so I imagine they have some heat to them.

I'm going through reading withdrawals! Monday I've got a date with my Kobo. lol

Hell on High Water by Julie Ann Walker is free

https://www.amazon.com/Hell-High-Wat...dp/B00Q571YD4/

This could be a pricing error. I'm sure this is fairly new.
I find her an excellent writer. She does good suspense.

It looks like it has to do with the second book being release today. It's not often they do these types of promos anymore.

I saved my screen shot and the confirming email. I will check periodically to make sure nothing has changed.

It's part of their new "meet the author" promo where each month they offer a book free for 48 hours so you can try the selected author out. It should be free at Amazon, iBooks & B&N at a minimum.

All the info I've seen so far says it's one featured author each month. Last month they did The Troublemaker Next Door by Marie Harte

I find her an excellent writer. She does good suspense.
I got the book, started reading, and finally realized why her name was so familiar. She wrote the Black Knights, Inc series!

This one is still free, by the way.
