Nacho Figueras Presents: High Season
RECOMMENDED: High Season by Jessica Whitman is $1.99! Redheadedgirl reviewed this book after RT this year and gave it an A-:
This was a sweet romance and had complex families and also sorts of mild angst and horses and I liked it a LOT. There are two more books in the series, and I’m excited to read those. There’s dudes in polo pants, and also ponies.
World-renowned polo player and global face of Ralph Lauren, Nacho Figueras dives into the world of scandal and seduction with a new fiction series set in the glamorous, treacherous world of high-stakes polo competition.
Georgia never wanted to be a jetsetter. A plain old country vet was fine for her. But one distress call from her best friend and the next thing she knows she’s neck deep in the world of polo’s most elite international players–complete with designer dresses, fine champagne and some of the most gorgeous thoroughbreds she’s ever seen. Some of the most gorgeous men too…
Alejandro Del Campo needs his team to win the season’s biggest polo tournament or else he’s not sure how much longer they’re going to be in business. What he doesn’t need is some sassy new vet telling him how to run his business–and distracting him at every turn. But as they come closer and closer to the championship match, it soon becomes clear that Alejandro wants to win Georgia just as much as the tourney trophy. But can he ever convince her his world is where she truly belongs?

Listen to Me by Kristen Proby is either 99c or $1.99 depending on your vendor of choice. Both Sarah and I picked it as part of April’s Hide Your Wallet post. Readers recommend this if you want something sexy, but easy on the angst. However, some expressed difficulty maintaining their interest. It has a 4-star rating on Goodreads.
In New York Times and USA Today bestselling author Kristen Proby’s brand new series, five best friends open a hot new restaurant, but one of them gets much more than she bargained for when a sexy former rock star walks through the doors—and into her heart.
Seduction is quickly becoming the hottest new restaurant in Portland, and Addison Wade is proud to claim 1/5 of the credit. She’s determined to make it a success and can’t think of a better way to bring in new customers than live music. But when former rock star Jake Keller swaggers through the doors to apply for the weekend gig, she knows she’s in trouble. Addie instantly recognizes him—his posters were plastered all over her bedroom walls in high school—he’s all bad boy…exactly her type and exactly what she doesn’t need.
Jake Keller walked away from the limelight five years ago and yearns to return to what’s always driven him: the music. If he gets to work for a smart-mouthed, funny-as-hell bombshell, all the better. But talking Addie into giving him the job is far easier than persuading her that he wants more than a romp in her bed. Just when she begins to drop her walls, Jake’s past finally catches up with him.
Will Addie be torn apart once again or will Jake be able to convince her to drown out her doubts and listen to her heart?

Duke of My Heart by Kelly Bowen is $1.99! This is a Kindle Daily Deal and is being price-matched. Yay! The heroine in this historical romance is a fixer who tries to smooth over scandals. Some readers felt there was too much going on plot and character wise. But many loved the heroine. Have you read this one?
Scandal can be handled…
Captain Maximus Harcourt, the unconventional tenth Duke of Alderidge, can deal with tropical storms, raging seas, and the fiercest of pirates. But he’s returned home from his latest voyage to find a naked earl – quite inconveniently deceased – tied to his missing sister’s bed. And he has only one place to turn. Now he’s at the mercy of the captivating Miss Ivory Moore of Chegarre & Associates, known throughout London for smoothing over the most dire of scandals.Miss Moore treats the crisis as though it were no more serious than a cup of spilt tea on an expensive rug. As though this sort of thing happened on the job every day. Max has never in all his life met a woman with such nerve. Her dark eyes are too wide, her mouth is too full, her cheekbones too sharp. Yet together, she’s somehow…flawless. It’s just like his love for her, imperfect, unexpected – yet absolutely true.

I’ve read all the books in the Crusie bundle and I love both Getting Rid of Bradley and Charlie All Night. Both are comfort re-reads for me.
GRoB – a dectective and a science teacher get involved in solving a possible crime possibly involving her ex. The mystery / suspense part takes a significant suspension of disbelief but I love the MCs – I love the banter and I love that he takes her intuitions seriously.
CAN – one of my favorite romances that starts with a one night stand. The plot point that forces the MCs to work together (after the one night stand) is not that believable but I loved the characters and the romance and I liked how they fell in love after got to know each other. And this is noteworthy as an early category (1990s) with a gay supporting character.
All four are early Crusies and I think they’re all category length.
At this point, between the two bundles, I’ve now got most of Crusie’s back catalog but I’m still waiting for Agnes and the Hitman to go on sale. $7.99 for a book I won’t technically own is more than I’m willing to pay. But if my grudging patience won’t be rewarded, I may have to. Damn it.
I bought the Bowen book because it’s on Sarah Maclean’s recommended list and she describes the heroine as ‘Olivia Pope in a corset.’
I love Getting Rid of Bradley every time I read it.
I love almost all of Crusie’s books. The two I’m especially fond of in the bundle – Getting Rid of Bradley and Charlie All Night – have wonderful dogs in them (for those of you who like dogs).
@kitkat9000, My sister stole my paperback of Agnes and the Hitman, and after a couple years of asking for it back, I caved and bought a used hardcover. No regrets; that book holds up! It’s probably my favorite Crusie novel.
The Blades of the Rose 4-book bundle by Zoe Archer is on sale for $4.99 in the US at Amazon, Kobo & B&N!
I knew the Bitchery would tell me if I should invest in the Crusie bundle! Thank you!
I enjoyed the Blades of the Rose series, fwiw. Fun, feminist genre mashup — a little scattershot but worthwhile if you’ve got the $5 to blow.
