A Scot in the Dark by Sarah MacLean is $1.99! I believe today is the last day for this deal, so get this one while you can. This is the second book in the Scandal & Scoundrel series. Some readers really loved the characters, especially the heroine. However, fans of MacLean say they didn’t felt this one measured up to her previous books.
RECOMMENDED: The Other Daughter by Lauren Willig is $2.99! This is historical fiction with romantic elements and Redheadedgirl gave it an A:
I like Willig’s writing a lot. It’s not complex; it’s kind of like the hot chocolate of prose. It’s smooth, and it’s classic. That may sound kind of like damning with faint praise, which I’m really not trying to do. There are times when what I want is smooth prose without a lot of flourishes, and Willig always delivers.
From Lukov with Love by Mariana Zapata is $2.99 at Amazon! This romance was recommended in our recent Winter Olympics Rec League and Zapata is an auto-buy for many of you. This is a slow burn romance (like many of Zapata’s romances), but some found it too slow. Have you read this yet?
Dragon Actually by G.A. Aiken is $1.99! This is the first book in the Dragon Kin series, which many praise for having kickass heroines. It also looks like the book has a new cover. I apparently read this book according to my Goodreads, but I remember next to nothing about it.
RECOMMENDED: Flowers from the Storm by Laura Kinsale is $1.99! This is one of those romances that is frequently talked about and in a previous Whatcha Reading, several of the Smart Bitches talked about the level of feels this book gives them. Have you read it? And, if so, do you have fond memories of it?
RECOMMENDED: Light My Fire by G.A. Aiken is $1.99! This is the seventh book in Aiken’s Dragon Kin series, which is (obviously) about dragons. The heroine is sent to assassinate the Dragon Queen and is found out. The hero, part of the Queen’s guard, is tasked with transporting the heroine back home in hopes of negotiating a truce. Some readers found the book rather light on romance, though many loved seeing characters from previous books. We featured this book when it was on sale in August and many readers commented on how much they love the series and this book in particular!
Pride and Pleasure by Sylvia Day is $2.99! This is an erotic historical romance between an heiress and a man she hired to investigate her potential suitors. A few readers felt like there was too much talking and not enough action. However, many enjoyed the plot setup and the characterizations of the hero and heroine. Have you read this one?
