Clean Sweep by Ilona Andrews is 99c! This is a Kindle Deal Deal and isn’t being price-matched just yet. I’ve heard good things about this book and it has a mix of scifi and paranormal elements. If you’re on the fence about buying it, you can read the first few chapters online.
RECOMMENDED: Sleeping Giants by Sylvain Neuvel is $1.99! It’s a scifi novel with a female protagonist. Readers say that though this scifi is a little darker and less “feel good,” the loved it. However, some felt a bulk of the book was just setup and information dumping for the next book. It has a 3.8-star rating on Goodreads. Elyse enjoyed this one and I really loved the audiobook.
RECOMMENDED: Magic Bites by Ilona Andrews is $1.99! This is book one in the Kate Daniels series, and I remember reading it and hiding so no one would make me stop reading. Be ye warned: crack ahoy. This book has a 4-star average at Goodreads and is much loved. This is a special edition with lots of bonus content!
Welcome to Wednesday Links! As usual, here are some pretty cool things the Bitchery has found around the internet recently. Author Ilona Andrews recently wrote a blog post on the Alphahole trope in romance and it is spreading like wildfire!

RECOMMENDED: Lothaire by Kresley Cole is $1.99! We’re in the home stretch with these new cover designs, and if you’ve been keeping up with the sales, you could own the entire series for less than $30. Depending on where you start counting, that’s either thirteen or fourteen titles.
I personally love this series and admittedly, I wasn’t sure about the heroine in this one being Lothaire’s mate, but she really grew on me. Any girl who sends her severed middle finger to a guy is a-okay in my book. The book was also reviewed for the 2013 RITA® Reader Challenge in the Paranormal Romance category. Reader Pam G gave it an A-:
I just want to note that I loved Lothaire both times I read it, and I expect that I’ll read it again. My taste in urban fantasy/paranormal romance runs strongly to supernatural sex and violence heavily laced with humor, because without the humor, the sex and violence gets to be a yawn after awhile. I would recommend Lothaire to any reader who enjoys mismatches made in heaven, edged dialogue, immortal angst and multi-leveled hilarity.
Burn for Me by Ilona Andrews is $1.99! Burn for Me is the first book in the Hidden Legacy series, and is an urban fantasy/billionaire story with magic, suspense, and a 4.4-star rating from readers on GoodReads. For those who remember, this book made it to the finals in this year’s DABWAHA tournament, and it was beaten by another Ilona Andrews title – Magic Breaks ( A | K | G | AB | Au )
