  • A Wolf Apart

    A Wolf Apart by Maria Vale

    RECOMMENDED: A Wolf Apart by Maria Vale is $1.99! This is book two in the Legend of All Wolves series. I love this series to pieces and how Vale builds the wolf, shifter, and human mythology. Definitely slow burns with a focus on character relationships!

    When the Great North Pack is on the verge of falling apart, Pack wolf Elijah Sorensson wants to give up on his successful life in the human world to return home. But the Alpha says no—Elijah must continue to play his role to protect the Pack from those who want to destroy it.

    Knowing he needs strength by his side, he seeks out human Thea Villalobos, a woman he’s admired from the moment he met her. He hopes she can help him break through his human shell before the ailing wolf inside him dies, and before the Pack is betrayed again. But can Thea accept who and what Elijah really is?

  • Fortune’s Pawn

    Fortune’s Pawn by Rachel Bach

    Fortune’s Pawn by Rachel Bach is $2.99 and a Kindle Daily Deal! This is a scifi novel with some strong romantic elements and, in the past, I’ve heard it described as Kate Daniels in space. Many people loved this book and its worldbuilding, though there are a few reviewers who said they never connected with any of the characters.

    Devi Morris isn’t your average mercenary. She has plans. Big ones. And a ton of ambition. It’s a combination that’s going to get her killed one day – but not just yet.

    That is, until she just gets a job on a tiny trade ship with a nasty reputation for surprises. The Glorious Fool isn’t misnamed: it likes to get into trouble, so much so that one year of security work under its captain is equal to five years everywhere else. With odds like that, Devi knows she’s found the perfect way to get the jump on the next part of her Plan. But the Fool doesn’t give up its secrets without a fight, and one year on this ship might be more than even Devi can handle.

    If Sigouney Weaver in Alien met Starbuck in Battlestar Galactica, you’d get Deviana Morris — a hot new mercenary earning her stripes to join an elite fighting force. Until one alien bite throws her whole future into jeopardy.

  • Duke, Actually

    Duke, Actually by Jenny Holiday

    Duke, Actually by Jenny Holiday is $1.99! This is a holiday romance that released in November. I remember Elyse reading it and commenting in Slack that she was enjoying it. I, sadly, don’t do holiday romances. What about you?

    USA Today bestselling author Jenny Holiday follows A Princess for Christmas with another delightful contemporary Christmas romance between a playboy baron and a woman who has said goodbye to love.

    There’s a royal wedding on, and things are about to get interesting.

    Meet the man of honor

    Maximillian von Hansburg, Baron of Laudon and heir to the Duke of Aquilla, is not having a merry Christmas. He’s been dumped by a princess, he’s unemployed, and his domineering father has sent him to New York to meet a prospective bride he has no interest in. In the city, he meets Dani Martinez, a smart (and gorgeous) professor he’s determined to befriend before their best friends marry in the Eldovian wedding of the century.

    Meet the best woman

    Newly single, no-nonsense New Yorker Dani is done with love—she even has a list entitled “Things I Will Never Again Do for a Man”—which is why she hits it off with notorious rake Max. He’s the perfect partner for snow angels in Central Park and deep conversations about the futility of love.

    It’s all fun and games until their friendship deepens into attraction and, oops…

    Falling in love was never part of the plan.

  • An Extraordinary Lord

    An Extraordinary Lord by Anna Harrington

    An Extraordinary Lord by Anna Harrington is $2.51 at Amazon and $2.99 elsewhere! This is book three in the Lords of Armory historical romance series. There also seems to be a bit of a mystery element in this one. Have you kept up with the series?

    A steamy historical romance set in Anna Harrington’s star-studded Regency world.

    Soldier turned solicitor Lord Merritt Rivers has dedicated his life to upholding the law. He patrols the streets faithfully, hoping to stop crimes before they can happen. While hunting an escaped convict, he encounters a woman also hunting thieves. She’s a delicious distraction, until he discovers that she is the criminal he’s after. She’s smart, challenging, and everything he finds attractive, but he cannot trust her.

    Veronica Chase has hidden her past as a nobleman’s daughter. She confesses to a crime to keep her adopted brother out of prison. She now lives in London’s underworld, trapped between worlds, belonging nowhere.

    Forming an uneasy alliance, Veronica and Merritt work together to protect innocent Londoners during the city’s riots. Moving between her world and his, they grow closer to each other and to the mob’s dangerous leaders. But their newfound trust won’t be enough, until each face their demons and ask what’s worth saving―the lives they’ve chosen to lead or the love that leaves them yearning for more.

    I’m sure A Wolf Apart is a great book, but it definitely needs to feature in Cover Snark!

  2. Lena Brassard/Ren Benton says:

    @Lisa S: No matter how many times I see it, I always think that poor wolf has a mangy muzzle with one misplaced nostril and have to stare at it way too long until the Obligatory Abs swim into focus.

  3. Penny says:

    FINGERSMITH by Sarah Waters is $1.99 https://smartbitchestrashybooks.com/bookinfo/fingersmith/

    Not Romance, but DARK MIRROR by Diane Duane is $0.99 – this is a Star Trek TNG novel set in the mirror universe, and Troi is delightfully sinister. Diane Duane is possibly my oldest Auto-Buy, from when I was a pre-teen reading her Young Wizards series in the 80s/90s and on to her Star Trek novels (also if you enjoy Trek, I *highly* recommend My Enemy, My Ally BTW)

  4. cat_blue says:

    OUTLAWED by Anna North is $3.99; received an A- review here https://smartbitchestrashybooks.com/reviews/outlawed-by-anna-north/

    HONEYTRAP by Aster Glenn Gray is $2.99; mentioned, I believe, in a Whatcha Reading comment although I couldn’t find it again. M/M romance between Cold War spies from opposite sides.

  5. Darlynne says:

    I very much enjoyed Maria Vale’s first two books; the third left me dissatisfied, not sure I even finished it. Definitely worth another attempt.

    @cat_blue: I liked both of those books. Each had elements of loss, hardship and betrayal, but the endings made the trip worthwhile.

  6. Darlynne says:

    BATTLE OF THE LINGUIST MAGES by Scotto Moore is $2.99 today.

    “It reads like Snow Crash had a dance-off with Gideon the Ninth, in a world where language isn’t a virus from outer space, it’s a goddamn alien invasion.” —Charles Stross

    I don’t even know what this means, but I’m intrigued enough to try it.

  7. Madscientistnz says:

    I’ve enjoyed all of Maria Vale’s books, and am eagerly waiting for the 5th and final one in the series.

    Battle of the Linguist Mages was bonkers and I loved it – but I think its a love it or hate it book, so you might want to try a sample first.

  8. Jcp says:

    Jill Mansell has two books on sale today
    I bought Tied Up in Knotts by Karen Knotts (a memoir by Karen Knotts, Don Knotts’ daughter for 2.99 in US

  9. Deborah says:

    I just love that every sale post is an opportunity for mini-reviews on the books listed, plus recommendations for other books on sale. Plus, since we’re a community of mutually respectful readers, comments on those other books on sale.

    *happy sigh* Thanks, bitchery.

  10. Penny says:

    @Deborah I feel the same!! So much love for this space

  11. Sydneysider says:

    I liked the first couple of books in the Lord of the Armory series, but by the third book and later ones the mystery had started to drag a bit. It’s not a bad read, but the later ones aren’t quite to the level of the first two for me.

  12. Jessi says:

    @madscientistnz I’m heartbroken the next book is going to be the last – I’m hoping Maria Vale buys a very expensive boat and has to write a dozen more to pay it off, or something!

  13. Notenoughcaffeine says:

    @Sydneysider I totally agree with the Lords of the Armory series! I really enjoyed the first one, but it just seems to have gone downhill from there. 🙁
