Kink Camp: Hunted by Adriana Anders is 99c! Big thank you to everyone who told us about this sale. I mentioned this on a previous Hide Your Wallet and seems like the perfect choice for just some quick, smutty reading. Have any of you read it yet?
RECOMMENDED: Sapphire Flames by Ilona Andrews is $2.99! This may be a leftover deal and could expire soon. Many of us romance readers can’t recommend this series or this author enough. You can pick this one up without read the story arc of the previous three, but why would you want to deprive yourself of Ilona Andrews goodness.
RECOMMENDED: The Duke Who Didn’t by Courtney Milan is $2.49! This is a KDD and I know many of you have been waiting for this to go on sale! Catherine gave this a squee grade:
The Duke Who Didn’t was always going to be a book that made me happy. Humour, food, and a gentle hero who just wants the heroine to be less stressed are a pretty good formula for getting onto my keeper shelf.

RECOMMENDED: Role Model by Rachel Reid is $2.99! Thank you to everyone who let us know about this sale! Lara wrote a Lightning Review for this one and gave it a B:
If you haven’t read the others, you’ll be fine. And if you need an afternoon of quiet smiling into a book that hums with emotional sincerity and growth, then this is the book for you.
The Governess Affair by Courtney Milan is FREE! Sarah reviewed this one and gave it a B-. She loved the time she spent with this novella, but felt like she wanted more from everything (characters, setting, conflict, etc).
RECOMMENDED: Talk Sweetly to Me by Courtney Milan is $2.99! This is part of the Brothers Sinister series, though retailers and Goodreads seem confused on whether it’s book 4.5 or 5 in the series. Carrie gave this one a B:
It’s a solid novella that has a science heroine (y’all know how I feel about scientific protagonists of any gender), a strong social justice stance (yay, team) and plenty of lovely writing.
RECOMMENDED: The Devil Comes Courting by Courtney Milan is $2.49! Catherine gave this one an A:
It is a book about the delight of discovery: of new things, of one’s own capabilities, of love, of things that were thought lost. It’s a book that addresses serious topics seriously, but it is also a book that sparkles.
The Library of the Unwritten by A.J. Hackwith is $1.99! This is a Kindle Daily Deal and is being price-matched. Carrie read this one and gave it a C+, noting it was the wrong book for her at the time, as it’s dark and rather angsty. Have you read it?

I should know better by now than to start a Courtney Milan novel in the evening before I have to work in the morning. I renew my membership of the Bad Decisions Book Club every single time. The Devil Comes Courting was no exception to this rule. Grayson Hunter wants to build a telegraph from Shanghai to the USA, but to do this he will need someone to invent a Chinese telegraphic code. He comes … Continue reading The Devil Comes Courting by Courtney Milan
