  • Too Hard to Forget

    Too Hard to Forget by Tessa Bailey

    Too Hard to Forget by Tessa Bailey is $1.99! This is the third book in the Romancing the Clarksons series, but it can be read on its own. I’m a Bailey fan, but this series wasn’t my favorite. There’s a forbidden relationship element that some people weren’t sold on, though many readers said the hero does an amaaaaazing grovel. It has 3.9-star rating on Goodreads.

    This time, she’s calling the shots.

    Peggy Clarkson is returning to her alma mater with one goal in mind: confront Elliott Brooks, the man who ruined her for all others, and remind him of what he’s been missing. Even after three years, seeing him again is like a punch in the gut, but Peggy’s determined to stick to her plan. Maybe then, once she has the upper hand, she’ll finally be able to move on.

    In the years since Peggy left Cincinnati, Elliott has kept his focus on football. No distractions and no complications. But when Peggy walks back onto his practice field and into his life, he knows she could unravel everything in his carefully controlled world. Because the girl who was hard to forget is now a woman impossible to resist.

  • Jane Doe

    Jane Doe by Victoria Helen Stone

    RECOMMENDED: Jane Doe by Victoria Helen Stone is still available for $1.99 at Amazon! Elyse and Sarah jointly review the book today and gave it a B+. They thought it was an empowering book, but felt the ending was a bit rushed. Please be warned that this book deals with all forms of abuse and abuse against a child. I’ve also heard other readers recommend the audiobook.

    A double life with a single purpose: revenge.

    Jane’s days at a Midwest insurance company are perfectly ordinary. She blends in well, unremarkably pretty in her floral-print dresses and extra efficient at her low-level job. She’s just the kind of woman middle manager Steven Hepsworth likes—meek, insecure, and willing to defer to a man. No one has any idea who Jane really is. Least of all Steven.

    But plain Jane is hiding something. And Steven’s bringing out the worst in her.

    Nothing can distract Jane from going straight for his heart: allowing herself to be seduced into Steven’s bed, to insinuate herself into his career and his family, and to expose all his dirty secrets. It’s time for Jane to dig out everything that matters to Steven. So she can take it all away.

    Just as he did to her.

  • The Immortals

    The Immortals by Jordanna Max Brodsky

    The Immortals by Jordanna Max Brodsky is $1.99! This is the first book in the Olympus Unbound. Sarah gave the first book a B grade. I highly recommend reading Sarah’s review to get a full sense of whether this book may be for you.

    When I started reading it, I had a really difficult time putting it down. The world building made for addictive reading, even when I was reading things I usually don’t read.

    MANHATTAN HAS MANY SECRETS.
    SOME ARE OLDER THAN THE CITY ITSELF.

    Manhattan.
    The city sleeps. Selene DiSilva walks her dog along the banks of the Hudson. She is alone-just the way she likes it. She doesn’t believe in friends, and she doesn’t speak to her family. Most of them are simply too dangerous.

    Murders.
    In the predawn calm, Selene finds the body of a young woman washed ashore, gruesomely mutilated and wreathed in laurel. Her ancient rage returns. And so does the memory of a promise she made long ago. To protect the innocent-and to punish those who stands in her way.

    Gods.
    With the NYPD out of its depth, Selene vows to hunt the killer on her own. But when classics professor Theo Schultz decodes the ancient myth behind the crime, the solitary Huntress finds herself working with a man who’s her opposite in every way. Together, they face a long-forgotten cult that lies behind a string of murders, and they’ll need help from the one source Selene distrusts most of all: the city’s other Immortals.

  • North of Need

    North of Need by Laura Kaye

    North of Need by Laura Kaye is 99c! This is a holiday paranormal romance with forced proximity and the heroine nursing the hero back to health. Many readers loved getting to know the heroine, but some found the book to be pretty underwhelming at times despite what it had going for it. The whole series is on sale at 99c a book, which means you can get the entire series for less than $4!

    Her tears called a powerful snow god to life, but only her love can grant the humanity he craves…

    Desperate to escape agonizing memories of Christmas past, twenty-nine-year-old widow Megan Snow builds a snow family outside the mountain cabin she once shared with her husband, realizing too late that she’s recreated the very thing she’ll never have.

    Called to life by Megan’s tears, snow god Owen Winters appears unconscious on her doorstep in the midst of a raging blizzard. As she nurses him to health, Owen finds unexpected solace in her company and unimagined pleasure in the warmth of her body, and vows to win her heart for a chance at humanity.

    Megan is drawn to Owen’s mismatched eyes, otherworldly masculinity, and enthusiasm for the littlest things. But this Christmas miracle comes with an expiration—before the snow melts and the temperature rises, Megan must let go of her widow’s grief and learn to trust love again, or she’ll lose Owen forever.

    I haven’t read this snow god novella, but my all-time favorite snow god novella is Meljean Brook’s Frozen, which is both super hot AND an interesting exploration of consent.

  2. Todd says:

    “North of Need” looks like it deserves a Cover Snark entry (if it hasn’t had one). I do like the font, though.

  3. cbackson says:

    @Todd it looks like the hero is getting his chest exfoliated.

  4. Lisa F says:

    I remember Jane Doe being the best of the fleet of Gone Girl take-offs that came out after the movie was big. North of Need, though, sounds like my kind of narrative catnip and I might buy that one.

  5. NomadiCat says:

    JANE DOE is easily in my list of Top 10 books ever. The comparisons to Gone Girl are inevitable, but of the two I’d pick Jane Doe as far more viscerally satisfying. It’s wish-fulfillment in the #MeToo world and Jane makes no bones about being a sociopath on a mission. This book is perfect for those moments when you’re angry and want to burn down the world, but know that you’d regret it in the morning. Let Jane Doe do it for you.

    Plus, the sequel is scheduled to drop in the near future so this is a great time to meet Jane.

    And can confirm: the audiobook is DELIGHTFUL. Jane’s internal narration is veeeerrrrryyyy different from what she says out loud and the narrator’s instant switches from savage sarcasm to winsome flakiness are hilarious.

  6. Deianira says:

    “The Immortals” world-building is excellent, so if that’s your jam – it’s mine; that’s the old-school D&D geek in me – it’s definitely worth a read for that alone. I’d give the concept & the world-building an A, & the novel itself a B. That said, I have book 2 in my TBR pile so that’s a solid-enough B to continue the series with.

  7. Star says:

    I just finished the two books in the Bailey series before the one that is on sale, and I’m also in the “fan of Bailey but not my favourite” camp. Both of the relationships in the first two books struck me as terribly unhealthy, and they take place over about four days each, which doesn’t help.

    The second book was a bit better, because although I thought the relationship was unhealthy, I did like the couple, and I thought their relationship was unhealthy but not toxic, whereas the relationship from the first book felt proto-toxic to me, and the ending was just ridiculous. I’m going to finish the series, but my expectations are rather low. Very disappointing.

    Bailey is a weird author to me. Love her voice; love that she often uses plot set-ups that are a bit different; love her sex scenes and her sex-positivity and many of her characters. At the same time, even when I enjoy the book, I often have the feeling that the relationships just aren’t healthy. (Also she doesn’t seem to do any research; every single detail about academia in the book with a professor hero was dramatically wrong.)

  8. Escapeologist says:

    @Todd
    @cbackson

    Thanks for making me zoom in on that North of Need cover, now I cannot unsee. That’s not how necks work. And is he sniffing his armpit?

  9. Ren Benton says:

    All Out: The No-Longer-Secret Stories of Queer Teens throughout the Ages is $3.99. “Seventeen young adult authors across the queer spectrum have come together to create a collection of beautifully written diverse historical fiction for teens. From a retelling of Little Red Riding Hood set in war-torn 1870s Mexico featuring a transgender soldier, to two girls falling in love while mourning the death of Kurt Cobain, forbidden love in a sixteenth-century Spanish convent or an asexual girl discovering her identity amid the 1970s roller-disco scene, All Out tells a diverse range of stories across cultures, time periods and identities, shedding light on an area of history often ignored or forgotten.”

  10. Emily B says:

    I’ll second Star on the Tessa Bailey – I love her, but this series fell flat for me. I kept reading because I wanted to get to the last book since this pair gets heavily teased throughout, but I don’t know that it was worth it. If you’re looking for some good Bailey to get started on, I’d recommend Getaway Girl, which is currently $2.99, so not bad!

  11. Gail says:

    Still disappointed that Jane Doe is an Amazon exclusive.

  12. Michael I says:

    @Escapeologist

    Obviously snow god necks work differently from human necks.

    🙂

  13. MaryK says:

    Has anybody read Laura Kaye’s MC series?

  14. Robin Bird says:

    The first three books sounded so good that I went to order them for my Kindle only to find that I already owned them. I seriously need to get on my to be read pile!

  15. Cristie says:

    Just bought Meljean Brook’s Frozen for 99 cents at Amazon. Not sure if that’s the usual price but I’d been meaning to try it and that price for anything is a steal. Also the Jane Doe audiobook is only $1.99 if you buy or already own the Kindle book.

  16. Star says:

    Update: I started the advertised Bailey last night and am about halfway through it and… yikes. This is not a healthy relationship. The advantage this book has over the first book in the series is that this time, Bailey knows the relationship is toxic, and that’s kind of the point, but she’s not really an author I trust to get the couple to a point of relationship health.

    It’s really disappointing, especially because the concept behind the series (adult siblings on a road trip!) is so unusual and cool.
