Free/Bargain Romances in May 2013

[NixLapi]

I bought *a few* books last week, with all those darn Kobo coupons... and yup, that 40% one is burning a hole in my pocket too!

Picked up:
- Stripped (Rock her Curves) by Karolyn James
- All Access (Brothers of Rock) by Karolyn James
- Leave me Breathless by Cherrie Lynn
- The Genius & the Muse by Elizabeth Hunter
- Rock Chick #1
- My Steadfast Heart by Jo Goodman
- True Love Story by Willow Aster
- Cowboy's Way by Cathryn Fox
- Nicola Marsh's: Crazy Love, Brash, and Busted in Bollywood
- My Double Life by Joanne Rock (she's one of my few auto-buys)
- Northern Rebel by Jennifer LaBrecque (love this series!)
- Michelle Mankin's Love Revolution + Love Resolution (now the first in the series need to price drop! lol)
- Rock Stars Do It trilogy by Jasinda Wilder
- Rule by Jay Crownover (*this one was picked up by a HarperCollins imprint and will be going up in price soon*)

And of course there are a bunch more I'm eyeing today... I need to get reading!

See, I only bought 2 books from that sale. Some weeks I behave, others I buy lots

Why couldn't he have just immediately jumped to her future when she's older?" Maybe it's explained in the book, but it seems...illogical...if you can say that about a "magical" book.

No clue but I am sure it would be explained in the book...surely. This is book three of the series.

I wasn't around back when FW has that deal. I came in after Agency pricing but I would use 60% off coupons to get my harlequins and other books. I sure miss it.

Do you count audiobooks as well? I got 13 new books from the ARe sale. Spent some of the rebate on 2 others. I picked up 2 others on Tuesday that were on sale at Amazon. Plus picked up 2 at B&N for 0.99 Then I spent money on a pre order at Samhain.

At audible, I got my account off hold and switched my membership plan to pay for 12 credits. I proceeded to get 7 plus 2 pre-orders. I wish that this tax refund would have come before the previous audible sale ended, because there were quite a few books on my wishlist on sale. But maybe that is a good thing.

I have $13.00 of rebates, and 2 free codes at ARe burning a hole in mine. May 7th is a big day for some of my favorite authors releases so I am hoping to use them then.

Hmm, much as I love a good rockstar book, I'm going to pass on the 2nd of hers. I gave the first one a 1 star and don't remember a thing about it.
I already spent $ today on An Unplanned Lesson by Beth Rinyu. I get the feeling with Mother's Day around the corner a lot of sales will be coming, which means a lot of spending!
