A Contest! Historical Undone - Win One!
by SB Sarah | November 01, 2008 | Saturday at 11:48 am | 94 CommentsThanks to Harlequin, keeper of all the magical ebooks I could ever want ever omg more please, I have a weekend giveaway - woo hoo!
Today Harlequin is launching “Historical Undone:” short historical romances, the way-back-machine version of the Nocturne Bites stories, if you will.
If you’d like to test drive a Historical Undone title, drop a comment below, and three winners will be selected randomly to win a coupon code good for one free Undone title from now until 30 November. Here is some sexy fine print:
Each coupon code can be used once and should be inputted at Checkout after the customer has put the Undone title of their choice in their shopping cart. They are redeemable at www.eBooks.eHarlequin.com
*fans self* Woo!
Plus, the nice people with the coupons at Harlequin (Hi nice people!) have also asked that I let y’all know that during the month of November, they’ll be hosting an Afternoon Delights special: every day in November, several Spice Briefs and Nocturne Bites, along with the four Undone books available now, will be just 99¢. Check out this extremely convenient URL for more details and your 99-cent selection.
I’m kind of a fan of the shorter romance eBooks, because when I have time to read on my lunch break, I can finish one in under an hour. I read the first Noctune Bites, Racing the Moon while I had lunch one day, and finishing a romance before it was time to clock back in was quite satisfying.
So, if you’d like to test drive a title from the Historical Undone series, let me know - drop a comment from now until midnight Sunday EST, and if you win, it’s shopping time!

Had never heard of either Nocturne Bites nor Historical Undone. Sounds like something I’d love though. Thanks for the information!
Spam word: reason69. Is it just me, or does the word-generator like to toss out ‘69’ a lot?
MK said on 11.01.08 at 04:54 PM • [comment link]
Me, please!
Vicki said on 11.01.08 at 05:21 PM • [comment link]
Oh, me, too. Sounds like a nice little purse sized morsel.
Or something to read while waiting for a six year old to finish putting his shoes on.

So does eHarlequin play nicely with your Kindle, or do you have to have it on a separate e-reader?

Can’t complain about something that’s free! : P
Tracy Wolff said on 11.01.08 at 06:28 PM • [comment link]
Their Spice Briefs and Nocturne Bites programs are doing so well that it’s nice to see them branching into historicals!

Diane, the Undones are available in Kindle off Amazon; Harlequin sells Adobe, Mobi, and MS Reader formats through their website.
kathybaug said on 11.01.08 at 07:41 PM • [comment link]
I’d like to try one, please.
Angela James said on 11.01.08 at 08:02 PM • [comment link]
The Viking’s Forbidden Love Slave sounds kind of like a Harlequin Presents historical style, doesn’t it?
Also, it looks like they’ll be selling for 89cents, which is SO much better than 99cents, don’t you think? Heh.
I bought two. For 89cents, how could I not? I’ll have to remember to check back for other deals this week.
(and I SWEAR I’m not editing you. No really, I’m not! but your post says every day in November and their site says every day Nov 3-7th. Will they be keeping it going through November?)

I also like romantic shorts, and there aren’t nearly enough historical ones to feed my appetite. These are a terrific idea!

I have found that little ebooks are nice to have on my laptop when I’m in need of a fix.
Speaking of Harlequin’s ebooks, they tend to have ebook coupon specials in their monthly email newsletter. Last month’s was for a free ebook. I got Anne Stuart’s Out of Print Gems (5 novels) for FREE! It was definitely a SQUEE moment.

That’s awesome! I love that Harlequin has such great deals.
Midknyt said on 11.02.08 at 06:35 AM • [comment link]
These sound fabulous! It would be nice to read a whole book while on the subway, and these are great for NaNoWriMo - I don’t want to get into a whole book right now, because I need to spend the spare time writing, but how am I supposed to not read for a month either?
Must learn how to control urge to continue reading book once I start. Of course, if I get one of these, I won’t have to. :)
Tina C. said on 11.02.08 at 06:48 AM • [comment link]
You said “way-back machine”! I loved The Rocky & Bullwinkle Show”! And I’m very fond of books and reading, even if I haven’t read a Harlequin in I don’t know how long. Hope the random integer generator generates my number.
