iBooks Apple Freebie A Scandalous Charade by Ava Stone
Currently free on iBooks Apple Store
A Scandalous Charade (Scandalous #2) by Ava Stone (Goodreads Author) http://itunes.apple.com/gb/book/a-sc...54458753?mt=11 4.25 · rating details · 24 ratings · 5 reviews Handsome ladies' man Lucas Beckford has agreed to help his friend, an impoverished baron, win the affections of an icy heiress. It should be a simple task, especially for a seducer of his reputation. However when Luke catches sight of the enchanting lady, he is captivated with her pretty brown eyes, quick wit, and sharp tongue; and his desire to see his friend marry the girl quickly evaporates. Now he just has to find a way to convince the penniless lord to turn his attentions elsewhere-leaving the Ice Princess to him. Lady Juliet St. Claire has always believed that her fortune would protect her from ever having to relinquish her freedom in marriage. Though fortune hunters endlessly hound her, Juliet's outwardly cold demeanor keeps most of them at bay, licking their wounds or patching up their pride. However when Luke charms his way into her life, he easily melts more than just her heart. Unfortunately, the rogue is of the love 'em and leave 'em variety, and leaves Juliet's tender heart in pieces. But when her fortune lands her in danger from an unscrupulous foe, Luke returns to her side, offering his help and protection. Now Juliet has to decide if her heart is strong enough to trust the rogue a second time. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~` Currently $5.99 on Kindle http://www.amazon.com/Scandalous-Cha...5194784&sr=1-1 Last edited by bookratt; 09-05-2011 at 12:28 AM. |

If it's via iBooks and free, it's still too expensive.

For most, sure. sometimes, though, there is no drm on a non-self-published title, which is easily liberated for another platform.
Some, though, do like the platform (just like some of us like our Kindle), so I would not say that free on ibooks is necessarily a deterrent for all. But, if we listed every single free smashwords/indie title from each store in it's own thread, there would be thousands of entries (heck, there are over a thousand free on Kindle right now, where the authors CAN'T set that price, only get it as a "penalty" from Amazon). |
