  • Strange Practice

    Strange Practice by Vivian Shaw

    Strange Practice by Vivian Shaw is $2.99! I’ve been so curious about this one because the heroine is a “fast-talking doctor to the undead.” It sounds all sorts of awesome. I definitely bought this after the last time it was on sale. If you’ve read this one, let me know what you thought!

    Meet Greta Helsing, fast-talking doctor to the undead. Keeping the supernatural community not-alive and well in London has been her family’s specialty for generations.

    Greta Helsing inherited the family’s highly specialized, and highly peculiar, medical practice. In her consulting rooms, Dr. Helsing treats the undead for a host of ills – vocal strain in banshees, arthritis in barrow-wights, and entropy in mummies. Although barely making ends meet, this is just the quiet, supernatural-adjacent life Greta’s been groomed for since childhood.

    Until a sect of murderous monks emerges, killing human and undead Londoners alike. As terror takes hold of the city, Greta must use her unusual skills to stop the cult if she hopes to save her practice, and her life.

  • Loathe at First Sight

    Loathe at First Sight by Suzanne Park

    Loathe at First Sight by Suzanne Park is $1.99! I believe this was Park’s adult debut. The heroine works in video game production and that comes with all sorts of sexist and disgusting behavior, so be warned that she goes through some pretty not fun stuff. Have you read this one?

    In a debut perfect for fans of Jasmine Guillory and Sally Thorne, a junior video game producer finds herself getting closer and closer to the one person she hates most after a mass troll attack online almost ruins her life.

    Melody Joo is thrilled to land her dream job as a video game producer, but her new position comes with its share of challenges. Namely, an insufferable CEO and a team that consists of mostly male co-workers who make the term “misogyny” pale in comparison to their obnoxious comments. Then there’s the infuriating—yet distractingly handsome—intern Nolan McKenzie, a.k.a. “the guy who got hired because his uncle is the boss”.

    Just when Melody thinks she’s made the worst career move of her life, her luck changes on a dime. While joking with a friend, she creates a mobile game that has male strippers fighting for survival in a post-apocalyptic world. Suddenly, Melody’s “joke” is her studio’s most high-profile project—and Melody’s running the show.

    When Nolan is appointed a key member of her team, Melody’s sure he’ll be useless. But as they grow closer, she sees he’s smart and sexy, which makes Melody want to forget he’s her intern. As their attraction deepens, she knows it’s time to pump the brakes even with her Korean parents breathing down her neck to hurry up and find a man. But she’s here to work—and nothing more. All she has to do is resist the wild thoughts coursing through her mind whenever Nolan is near. Easy . . . or so she thinks.

    With her pet project about to launch, Melody suddenly faces a slew of complications, including a social media trolling scandal that could end her career. She suspects one of her co-workers is behind the sabotage and is determined to find out who betrayed her. Could the man she’s falling hard for help her play the game to win—in work and love?

  • Do You Feel It Too?

    Do You Feel It Too? by Nicola Rendell

    Do You Feel It Too? by Nicola Rendell is $1.99! This is in KU and I thought I mentioned this on Hide Your Wallet. However, I did bring this up on Cover Awe. I’m a sucker for flowers.

    For urban-legend hunter and television host Gabe Powers, it’s business—investigate the most notorious haunted places in Savannah. Then he meets his new sound engineer, a dewy Georgia peach who may just turn this gig into (im)pure pleasure. All it takes is one night for them to conjure floor-rattling, wall-banging moans…but they’re not from the ghosts.

    Blame the rippling abs, the cocky swagger, the granite jawline, the whole muscle-bulging package, but Gabe is bringing out good-girl Lily Jameson’s dirty side. Damn her code-of-conduct contract—this isn’t just a molten-hot fling.

    There’s just one kink in the relationship they’ve been avoiding: soon they’ll be going their separate ways. Lily’s home is in Savannah, and Gabe is a globe-trotter at heart. For them to be together, they’ll both have to upend their so-very-different worlds and face their fears in the process. And suddenly things don’t feel so Georgia peachy keen at all.

  • Witch Please

    Witch Please by Ann Aguirre

    Witch Please by Ann Aguirre is $2.51 at Amazon and $2.99 elsewhere! This paranormal romance was featured in our witchy round up for this year. I think a few of our reviewers were curious about this one, but found the conflict aspect to be weak and would have been easily solved by setting boundaries. Have you read it?

    Practical Magic meets Gilmore Girls in this adorable witchy rom-com with:

    • A bisexual virgin baker with a curse
    • A witch looking to avoid romantic entanglements
    • And a chemistry between them that causes literal sparks

    Danica Waterhouse is a fully modern witch—daughter, granddaughter, cousin, and co-owner of the Fix-It Witches, a magical tech repair shop. After a messy breakup that included way too much family “feedback,” Danica made a pact with her cousin: they’ll keep their hearts protected and have fun, without involving any of the overly opinionated Waterhouse matriarchs. Danica is more than a little exhausted navigating a long-standing family feud where Gram thinks the only good mundane is a dead one and Danica’s mother weaves floral crowns for anyone who crosses her path.

    Three blocks down from the Fix-It Witches, Titus Winnaker, owner of Sugar Daddy’s bakery, has family trouble of his own. After a tragic loss, all he’s got left is his sister, the bakery, and a lifetime of terrible luck in love. Sure, business is sweet, but he can’t seem to shake the romantic curse that’s left him past thirty and still a virgin. He’s decided he’s doomed to be forever alone.

    Until he meets Danica Waterhouse. The sparks are instant, their attraction irresistible. For him, she’s the one. To her, he’s a firebomb thrown in the middle of a family war. Can a modern witch find love with an old-fashioned mundane who refuses to settle for anything less than forever?

  1. Qualisign says:

    The entire Greta Helsing series by Vivian Shaw, which begins with STRANGE PRACTICE, is spectacular and on my keeper shelf. FYI: This is a very slow (at most simmer?) romance that barely bubbles across the series. The world building is brilliant. incorporating — sometimes literally — many odd mythological and paranormal elements. I love how Dr Helsing builds a (found) family while increasing her confidence and competence in the face of many catastrophic AND apocalyptic circumstances. She does get somewhat depressed at times (when faced with the end of times, who in their right mind wouldn’t get depressed?), but she soldiers on. Yep, I love this series.

  2. FashionablyEvil says:

    I loved Danica, the heroine of WITCH, PLEASE, but desperately wanted her to be in a different book. All the other characters lack basic empathy or else are pretty manipulative. Even the one character who I thought was not manipulative turns out to be one of the worst of the bunch. Danica deserved better.

  4. IASHM says:

    Anyone know what became of Nicola Rendell? Did she quit writing? As far as I know she hasn’t released anything since this (Do You Feel It Too?) in 2018, and I’d love to read more books by her.

  5. Penny says:

    Second @Qualisign – I picked up all the ebooks on sale awhile back and weirdly was just thinking about this series and wanting to buy physical copies for a reread (it’s my new thing, I’ve started buying my keepers in trade paperback or hardback- not mass market because I am an old). Very slow burn but the found family aspect is deeply comforting.

  6. Emily C says:

    Popping in to agree with everything @Qualisign said about the Greta Helsing series. It’s a fantastic cozy paranormal series with found family, slow burn romance, and a healthy dose of career competence, in addition to an interesting take on the supernatural world.
    I adored all three books!

  7. JoanneBB says:

    I read the 3 books (Witch Please + 2 more side characters’s stories) and while this was the best of the 3 as mentioned above everyone in her life can be pretty awful. I hate her grandmother and they have a lot of family guilt traps going on in all 3 books (book 3 different family but still awful).

    But if you ignore the side characters (ha!) the romance between Dani and her baker is sweet.

  8. Jazzlet says:

    I’m fourthing the Greta Helsing series for all th reasns already stated. She has a new book coming ut in the USA, but apparently not in the UK *cries*

  9. Allison R-B says:

    The Greta Helsing series is superb. If competence porn is your jam, Dr. Greta is your gal. I’m re-reading Dreadful Company for Monstrous May, and was struck anew by the way Shaw balances wit, literary allusions, and fantasy with very real human feelings.
    Scenes of (frightened, sleep-deprived) Dr. Greta providing medical care and support to some obviously traumatized new vampires from the coven keeping her captive is haunting stuff. Bonus pleasure points if you have ever shivered while reading classic gothic or horror: One of MR James’ most creepy creations shows up in Dreadful Company, along with temporal flashbacks to some of the nastier torture bits in Leroux’s The Phantom of the Opera.

    And yet another for Strange Practice, a favorite new author/series find for me.

  12. Michelle says:

    ‘A dewy Georgia peach’… is this a compliment? Like, I’m not feom the States but is this about her skin? Or her ass? What gives?!

  13. flchen1 says:

    @Michelle, I think it’s supposed to be a complimentary comparison for the heroine, that she’s as lovely as a perfect peach–glowing, scented, soft, etc, etc… So they’re essentially calling her a peach, as one might call someone a rose or something.

    Everyone, please feel free to correct me if I’m wrong 🙂

    @Michelle @FLchen1: I’m a native Georgian. Georgia is known as the Peach State, so a Georgia Peach would be at the least, a resident. But I thought they were really stretching the word play in that blurb. And I suppose those *could* be peach blossoms on the cover, though they tend towards a lighter pink.

    Farrah Rochon’s The Hookup Plan is $1.99!

  17. Mzcue says:

    Thank you all for the recommendations for Vivian Shaw’s Greta Helsing series. I found Strange Practice among my vast TBR, unread. I dove in and within 30 pages I was absolutely hooked. My library provided a new copy of the beautifully narrated audio book for double enjoyment. Snapping up the second two books as well. May be my discovery new to me author of the year.

  18. Ely says:

    Regency Buck (Alastair-Audley Book 3) by Georgette Heyer is currently on sale for $1.99 on Amazon US. Considering the price Heyer’s books usually are, this is a great sale. Despite being labelled as book 3, this one doesn’t have any of the characters from books 1 and 2 (These Old Shades & Devil’s Cub).

    Since Georgette Heyer can best be described as a problematic fave, I want to mention that there’s at least one sexual assault in this book, which the heroine fends off by pretending to faint. Despite everything, I still have a soft spot for Georgette Heyer, and this one is a perennial re-read for me.
