  • Omens

    Omens by Kelley Armstrong

    RECOMMENDED: Omens by Kelley Armstrong is $1.99! Shoutout to Katie for letting me know about this one because I just finished this book very recently! This is the first book in a finished urban fantasy series and for the most part, I really liked it. It dragged in some spots, but I loved how I didn’t get all the answers about the mysterious Cainesville in the first book.

    Twenty-four-year-old Olivia Taylor Jones has the perfect life. The only daughter of a wealthy, prominent Chicago family, she has an Ivy League education, pursues volunteerism and philanthropy, and is engaged to a handsome young tech firm CEO with political ambitions.

    But Olivia’s world is shattered when she learns that she’s adopted. Her real parents? Todd and Pamela Larsen, notorious serial killers serving a life sentence. When the news brings a maelstrom of unwanted publicity to her adopted family and fiancé, Olivia decides to find out the truth about the Larsens.

    Olivia ends up in the small town of Cainsville, Illinois, an old and cloistered community that takes a particular interest in both Olivia and her efforts to uncover her birth parents’ past.

    Aided by her mother’s former lawyer, Gabriel Walsh, Olivia focuses on the Larsens’ last crime, the one her birth mother swears will prove their innocence. But as she and Gabriel start investigating the case, Olivia finds herself drawing on abilities that have remained hidden since her childhood, gifts that make her both a valuable addition to Cainsville and deeply vulnerable to unknown enemies. Because there are darker secrets behind her new home and powers lurking in the shadows that have their own plans for her.

  • Winter Tide

    Winter Tide by Ruthanna Emrys

    RECOMMENDED: Winter Tide by Ruthanna Emrys is $1.99! This is a Lovecraft-inspired scifi/fantasy novel that Carrie loved. She gave it an A:

    I just want to hang out more with Aphra and her found family, not to mention her family under the sea. It’s a great story and a seamless subversion of Lovecraft’s most repellent views while simultaneously being a tribute to his greatest accomplishments.

    After attacking Devil’s Reef in 1928, the U.S. Government rounded up the people of Innsmouth and took them to the desert, far from their ocean, their Deep One ancestors, and their sleeping god Cthulhu. Only Aphra and Caleb Marsh survived the camps, and they emerged without a past or a future.

    The government that stole Aphra’s life now needs her help. FBI agent Ron Spector believes that Communist spies have stolen dangerous magical secrets from Miskatonic University, secrets that could turn the Cold War hot in an instant, and hasten the end of the human race.

    Aphra must return to the ruins of her home, gather scraps of her stolen history, and assemble a new family to face the darkness of human nature.

  • Perilous Trust

    Perilous Trust by Barbara Freethy

    Perilous Trust by Barbara Freethy is 99c! This is the first book in the romantic suspense Off the Grid: FBI series, and it features a second chance element. Readers said the action and suspense in this book made this one a quick read, though some found the dialogue to be a bit stilted.

    It was one dark night that brought Damon Wolfe and Sophie Parker together. They were two tortured souls, looking for escape, and they weren’t supposed to see each other ever again…

    Four years later, Sophie’s FBI father, who is also Damon’s mentor, is killed in a suspicious car crash after leaving Sophie a cryptic message to trust no one from the agency. When Damon shows up looking for her, she isn’t sure if he’s friend or enemy, but she knows he could easily rip apart what is left of her heart.

    The last thing Damon wants is to get involved with Sophie again. It was hard enough to walk away the first time. But she’s in trouble, her father’s reputation is under attack, and the lives of his fellow agents are at stake if there’s a traitor in their midst.

    When someone starts shooting at them, they have no choice but to go on the run and off the grid. Everyone in their world becomes a suspect. They want to uncover the truth, but will it turn out to be the last thing they expect? Proving her father’s innocence might just cost them their hearts…and their lives…

  • Getting Schooled

    Getting Schooled by Emma Chase

    Getting Schooled by Emma Chase is 99c at Amazon! It’s available at other vendors, but not at the sale price. For the most part, I enjoy Chase’s writing and the balance of humor and romance. I haven’t read this one, though, and people mentioned that the friendships and teacher/student dynamics were the best part. However, the romance was rather weak.

    The newest novel from New York Times bestselling author Emma Chase.

    Head of the class…

    Garrett Daniels has this whole life thing figured out.

    The cocky, charismatic former high school star quarterback is an idolized football coach and “cool” teacher in the hometown where he’s not just a golden boy — he’s platinum. He has good friends, a great house on the lake, and the best damn sidekick a man could ask for: Snoopy, the albino beagle.

    Then…Callie Carpenter comes home.

    And knocks him right on his tight end zone.

    Back to school…

    Callie has a pretty sweet life herself…on the other side of the country. But circumstances — that she’d prefer to never speak of again — have brought her back home, helping out her parents and substitute teaching at her old high school.

    Now she’s facing bickering, raging hormones, constant gossip, awkward weirdness, and drama galore…and that’s just the teachers.

    Just like old times…

    When Garrett offers to show his former high school sweetheart the secrets of his winning teacher ways, Callie jumps at the chance – and then has to stop herself from jumping him.

    Good friends are all they can ever be.

    Or…these teachers just might end up getting schooled — by love.

    I’m not sure I’d trust a teacher who doesn’t know how to wear a shirt…

  2. Kathleen says:

    So Winter Tide isn’t my thing but I LOVE the cover. That has to be the same author who did the covers for Sharon Shinn’s Archangel series– heart eyes emoji!!!

  3. Emily B says:

    Getting Schooled was a lot of fun, and the teacher/student dynamics were definitely the part that stuck with me most, but I didn’t find the romance weak. I actually may give this one a reread now that I’m reminded of it. I haven’t read most of Chase’s other stuff because they always seem to be on the pricier side.

  4. DonnaMarie says:

    Usually there’s maybe one book in the sale post that makes my one click finger twitchy, but today’s post? Clickity, clickity click, they are all one click catnip.

  5. Lara says:

    @2–Yep, it’s John Jude Palencar. He does some of the best covers in sci-fi/fantasy.

  6. Vicki says:

    I loved Winter Tide and strongly recommend it. I liked the characters, the portrayal of someone coming out of a camp and getting used to a now unfamiliar society, of having to be careful about sharing your identity, about trying to connect with an identity almost destroyed. And the writing was great.

  7. shel says:

    If book 1 of a YA Victorian mystery quartet with a half Chinese main character sounds interesting, Y. S. Lee’s THE AGENCY: A SPY IN THE HOUSE is $1.99.

  8. snap says:

    I have been waiting for Winter Tide to go on sale for literal years. click!

  9. Ren Benton says:

    Saturday (April 20), T. Kingfisher’s THE SEVENTH BRIDE is a Kindle Daily Deal for 99 pennies. (Published by an Amazon imprint, so not available elsewhere, sorry.) Bluebeard reimagining with a resourceful heroine, a weird house, and a hedgehog, dammit.
