RECOMMENDED: While We Were Dating by Jasmine Guillory is $1.99! Elyse and Shana reviewed this one and gave it an A:
Shana: Overall, I loved this low-conflict celebrity romance with all the fun of dating in the public eye, and little of the stress.
Elyse: I agree. This is a tropey, low angst read with hot sex scenes and supportive secondary characters.
It Happened One Fight by Maureen Lenker is $2.99! I believe we mentioned this on a previous Hide Your Wallet. The Old Hollywood setting definitely grabbed our attention. Apologies if this is a leftover KDD from yesterday.
A Scandalous Deal by Joanna Shupe is $1.99! This is an American historical romance with workplace elements. This is the second book in The Four Hundred series and the next one, A Notorious Vow, is a major favorite and comfort read for me. Are you a fan of the series?
RECOMMENDED: Daughter of the Forest by Juliet Marillier is $3.99! I have such incredibly fond memories of this book. My best friend and I read this together in high school, but my school library only had one copy, so I had to wait my turn. It’s a lovely fantasy novel with some romance, but be warned that it’s a slow, slow burn. Definitely trigger warnings for rape/sexual assault.
An Inconvenient Duke by Anna Harrington is $1.99! This is book one in the Lords of the Armory series. This historical romance features the “off-limits sibling of a friend” trope. If that’s your particular catnip, maybe pick this one up.
The Wolf in the Shadows by Maria Vale is $2.99! This is book five in the Legend of All Wolves series. I love this series, though I haven’t read this one just yet.
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!
RECOMMENDED: D’Vaughn and Kris Plan a Wedding by Chencia C. Higgins is $1.99 and a Kindle Daily Deal! Shana and Tara joint reviewed this one and gave it a B+:
Tara: Although the pacing of the last half was off for me, overall I had a great time reading D’Vaughn and Kris Plan a Wedding. I love reality show romances and I love fake relationship romances, so I was thrilled that this book is like the old Reese’s tagline: two great tastes that taste great together. These characters are memorable and I enjoyed my time with them.
Shana: Damn, now I want a peanut butter cup. Overall, I loved this book. There was just enough fake relationship and reality show drama to keep me reading, and I enjoyed the family antics, and healing. This book might appeal to readers who like seeing a chivalrous person woo a reluctant heroine, and don’t mind a few loose ends. I’d happily read this again.
Tokyo Ever After by Emiko Jean is $2.99! This has been featured on the side for both Book Beat and Hide Your Wallet. Definite Princess Diaries vibes here in the best way!
RECOMMENDED: Gentleman Jim by Mimi Matthews is $2.49 or $2.99 depending on your retailer! Lara wrote a Lightning Review for this one and gave it an A:
I love a good yarn (in all senses of the word) and this book delivers a belter. This is an historical romance that feels fresh, vibrant and made me sing the Good Book Noise.
RECOMMENDED: Last Night with the Earl by Kelly Bowen is $1.99! I so loved this book and gave it an A-. This is the second book in the Devils of Dover series, but can be read out of order (I did).
For readers who love slow burn historicals that have a focus on emotional healing, I can’t push this into your hands or onto your e-readers fast enough.
