  • Luck Is No Lady

    Luck Is No Lady by Amy Sandas

    Luck Is No Lady by Amy Sandas is 99c! This is the first book in the Fallen Ladies series and it came out earlier this year. I’m also loving the cover for this one. Many readers mentioned good book noises after finishing this romance, while others felt the romance between the hero and heroine wasn’t very convincing. It has a 3.9-star rating on Goodreads.

    “You should not have kissed me,” she replied breathlessly.
    “I do a lot of things I shouldn’t. It does not mean I won’t do them again.”

    Gently bred Emma Chadwick always assumed she’d live and die the daughter of a gentleman. But when her father’s death reveals a world of staggering debt and dangerous moneylenders, she must risk her good name and put her talent for mathematics to use, taking a position as bookkeeper at London’s most notorious gambling hall. Surrounded by vice and corruption on all sides, it is imperative no one discovers Emma’s shameful secret or her reputation-and her life-will be ruined.

    But Roderick Bentley, the hall’s sinfully wealthy owner, awakens a hunger Emma cannot deny. Drawn deep into an underworld of high stakes gambling and reckless overindulgence, she soon discovers that in order to win the love of a ruthless scoundrel, she will have to play the game…and give in to the pleasure of falling from grace.

  • The Year We Fell Down

    The Year We Fell Down by Sarina Bowen

    The Year We Fell Down by Sarina Bowen is 99c at Amazon right now! This is the first book in The Ivy Years series and was brought to our attention by reader Cat, who did some serious squeeing over this book:

    I devoured-yet-savored this like I would cheesecake. I whipped through this thing on a Saturday night because it was so engrossing but at the same time I just marveled at it, like, “How is this book so good?” Bowen does a great job of portraying disability in romance, and just likeComing in from the Cold she took a plot angle that makes the whole romance genre seem fresh again–I mean, I love the concept of genre and its constrictions and its tropes (I swear having a guaranteed happy ending is my favorite thing about romance, too many nasty shocks from mysteries and then of course fantasy…I’m a bit of a genre geek) but I love when authors can play with those tropes (cough Courtney Milan cough) or create something fresh and exciting even within various constraints.

    Anyone interested? I know I am.

    The sport she loves is out of reach. The boy she loves wants someone else.

    What now?

    She expected to start Harkness College as a varsity ice hockey player. But a serious accident means that Corey Callahan will start school in a wheelchair instead.

    Across the hall, in the other handicapped-accessible dorm room, lives the too-delicious-to-be real Adam Hartley, another would-be hockey star with his leg broken in two places. He’s way out of Corey’s league.

    Also, he’s taken.

    Nevertheless, an unlikely alliance blooms between Corey and Hartley in the “gimp ghetto” of McHerrin Hall. Over tequila, perilously balanced dining hall trays, and video games, the two cope with disappointments that nobody else understands.

    They’re just friends, of course, until one night when things fall apart. Or fall together. All Corey knows is that she’s falling. Hard.

    But will Hartley set aside his trophy girl to love someone as broken as Corey? If he won’t, she will need to find the courage to make a life for herself at Harkness — one which does not revolve around the sport she can no longer play, or the brown-eyed boy who’s afraid to love her back.

  • The Queen’s Man

    The Queen’s Man by Terri Brisbin

    The Queen’s Man by Terri Brisbin is 99c at Amazon, though the price will go up to $2.99 in about two days. This is a time travel romance that was originally published in the early 2000s. Some readers found themselves skimming chapters to get to the good parts, while others loved the heroine. Have you read this one?

    A man born an heir, but raised a bastard. . .
    A woman with the proof to put him on the throne. . .
    A love endangered by the intrigue of Elizabeth’s court. . .

    Richard Granville, an illegitimate son of Henry VIII, has always wanted to be king of England, but a bastard cannot inherit that position. So, he contents himself by serving his half-sister Queen Elizabeth. When her enemies approach with claims of his rights to the throne and with a plot to put him there, he is tempted. . . oh so tempted.

    Sharon Reynolds, a museum curator on holiday in present day England, discovers proof of a legitimate male heir to Henry VIII and is shocked to be thrown back through time with that proof. Believing she was sent back to right the wrongs done to Henry VIII’s rightful heir, she searches for the man who should be king. Unfortunately, by the time she uncovers his identity she has fallen in love with him.

    Giving Richard the evidence may bring his death if he fails. Giving him the proof will mean losing his love if he becomes king for a commoner is no fit wife for him then.

    Danger, intrigue and deception surround them as they struggle to find the path that fate means for them. . . and their love. Can their love help them survive in Elizabethan England or will Richard forever remain the queen’s man?

  • Fairy Tale Romance Collection

    Fairy Tale Romance Collection by Melanie Dickerson

    The Fairy Tale Romance Collection by Melanie Dickerson is $1.99! This set has five full-length YA romances with fairy tale retellings and usually is priced at around $20, so this is a steal. Some readers mention that the stories have an inspirational element to them, while others loved the different take on tales like Snow WhiteCinderella, and more!

    Romance, intrigue, and danger abound in this five-book bind-up of Melanie Dickerson’s bestselling fairy-tale retellings.

    The Healer’s Apprentice: Rose has been appointed as a healer’s apprentice at Hagenheim Castle, and when Lord Hamlin—the future duke—is injured, it is Rose who tends to him. As she works to heal his wound, she begins to fall in love, and wonders if he feels the same. But Lord Hamlin is betrothed to a mysterious young woman in hiding. As Rose’s life spins toward confusion, she must take the first steps on a journey to discover her own destiny.

    The Merchant’s Daughter: Annabel is trapped in indentured servitude to Lord Ranulf, a recluse who is rumored to be both terrifying and beastly. She soon finds he is actually very kind and caring, and the two strike up a friendship that could soon become more. Then Annabel becomes involved in a situation that could possibly lead to Ranulf’s demise.

    The Fairest Beauty: Sophie desperately wants to get away from her stepmother’s jealousy, and receives her chance when Gabe arrives from Hagenheim Castle to rescue her, claiming she is betrothed to his older brother. Though romance is impossible–she is his brother’s future wife, and Gabe himself is betrothed to someone else–the pair flee to the Cottage of the Seven to find help. Before long both must not only protect each other from the dangers around them, they must also protect their hearts.

    The Captive Maiden: When Gisela learns the duke’s son, Valten–the boy she has daydreamed about for years–is throwing a ball in hopes of finding a wife, she vows to find a way to attend, even if it’s only for a taste of a life she’ll never have. To her surprise, she catches Valten’s eye. Though he is rough around the edges, Gisela finds Valten is everything she hoped he would be. But other forces are bent on keeping the two from falling further in love, putting Gisela in more danger than she ever imagined.

    The Princess Spy: Margaretha has always been a romantic, and hopes her newest suitor, Lord Claybrook, is destined to be her one true love. But then an injured man is brought to Hagenheim Castle, claiming to be an English lord who was attacked by Claybrook and left for dead. And only Margaretha–one of the few who speaks his language–understands the wild story. It is up to her to save her father, Colin, and Hagenheim itself from Claybrook’s wicked plot

  1. Gigi says:

    The Year We Fell Down is amazing. I’m don’t care much for NA but I devoured the entire series in one gulp.

  2. Katie Lynn says:

    The Year We Fell Down is one of my all-time favorite books. I ended up buying the audiobook when it came out a few months back and didn’t love the narration, but the ebook is great.

  3. Hyacinths says:

    Bowen is amazing. I never thought I would be into New Adult Sports Romance, but I love the whole Ivy Years series. The respect with which she treats consent and choices about sexuality is just lovely in these booksituations. And her characters are very real and relatable.

  4. cleo says:

    The Ivy Years series and Bowen in general is kind of hit or miss for me. I like that she tackles tough and/or unusual topics but I don’t always love the execution. I did enjoy The Year We Fell Down – especially the heroine. The part where she decides to get over her crush on the hero and successfully builds a life of her own separate from him is one of my all time fave NA bits ever. I had reservations about the hero – I didn’t love him being inspired by the heroine, I was very skeptical of how he justified sleeping with her, and there’s a side plot with his estranged father that I thought was unnecessary.

  5. LML says:

    So interesting to read comments from others who say they don’t care much for NA but enjoyed the Ivy Years series. I am so far away from NA that I don’t feel connection or even sufficient empathy for most NA characters. But like Gigi, I devoured this series. I’m sure it is because as Hyacinths said, the characters are very real.

  6. Kareni says:

    I’m another fan of The Year We Fell Down. One of my favorite things about the book is that the characters actually talk and get to know each other. Oh, and they also attend class; some authors set their books on a college campus and then neglect to have their characters attend class, do homework, and take exams.

  7. Ashley says:

    I think I picked up The Year We Fell Down on a whim when it first came out. I started it on a Saturday night and ended up reading the entire book. I absolutely LOVED it, and I’ve reread it a bunch of times. I think the NA genre has become so bogged down by the woe-is-me trope, and while the main character is dealt a crappy hand, she comes off as positive and realistic and fresh. The characters have support systems and friends, and it just feels like an organic story. And as Kareni pointed out they actually go to class and take tests. Honestly, I think it’s great.

  8. Meg says:

    “Fairy Tale Romance Collection” should be called “Christian Morality Tales”. Unfortunately, the Christian religious aspect overpowered these stories. Instead of romance stories (with Christian heroes and heroines), these felt like I was being preached to. “Inspirational” makes me think of Beverly Lewis, instead I was left feeling like I was at a fire and brim stone tent revival. So, if you’re evangelical and like a lot of God in your stories, these are for you. If not, find something else to spend your money on!
