Free (Kobo/Borders) Dancing In The Lowcountry

Dancing In The Lowcountry by James Villas

Product Description
Quote:
From award-winning author James Villas comes a warm, witty, and poignant story of passion, friendship, and family set against the lush, mellow backdrop of the South Carolina Lowcountry.

Ella Dubose is a Southern lady of a certain age--an age at which memories of youth can rush in at every turn and overwhelm the present. But while Ella's two younger children are concerned for her health and want to limit her independence, Ella--elegant, unconventional, and unrepentantly willful--has very different ideas. And she's not about to be controlled by anyone, not when there are tasks she needs to complete and loose ends that must be tied.

The first step is to leave her family and take a road trip back to the places where key chapters of her life unfolded. Myrtle Beach has been overrun by theme restaurants and ocean-front condos, but the Priscilla is still the charming, shingled inn Ella remembers from visits long ago. At the Priscilla, Ella and her companion, Goldie, sip cocktails on the porch and dine on she-crab soup and fried oysters while awaiting the arrival of Ella's oldest son, Tyler, now a successful writer in New York. And there, too, Ella meets a dashing, attentive gentleman who will help her finally face her ghosts and determine which of the secrets she has carried for so long must be shared, and which are better left untold.

With its unforgettable and instantly loveable heroine and evocative portrayal of Southern life--past and present--Dancing in the Lowcountry is a beguiling, beautifully rendered novel about the places and people that stay with us, the courage it takes to live in the present, and the endless ways life can surprise us, over and over again.

I get that a lot at Borders. As I explained in a blog post, the solution is to open their reader app (Borders Desktop if you don't have a phone app), search by title and add the book that way (it'll say "download" instead of having a price).

After you do, the epub will be in your library.

I don't know what their issue is, but their website and purchase process is truly the worst (which guarantees I only get free books there).

In the meantime, it's been added to Kobo as a free book. Much less hassle and easy to get:

Click HERE to get the book from Kobo. Make sure to also click on Save for Later under the cover picture so that it is added to your library in case you need to re-download it later.
