Savannah’s Secrets by Reese Ryan is $1.99! This is a category romance and the first in a series. There are also workplace elements. This romance has been mentioned a few times on the site and I know we always talk about the amazing wardrobes on the Harlequin Desire line.
Island Affair by Priscilla Oliveras is 99c! Oliveras was part of my contemporary romance panel for a previous Bookstore Romance Day, and she was a damn delight. Trigger warning for this one as I believe the heroine is in recovery for disordered eating.
Not the Kind of Earl You Marry by Kate Pembrooke is $1.99! I mentioned this on a Hide Your Wallet over the summer and it’s the first in a series. Did any of you pick this one up?
RECOMMENDED: Kill the Queen by Jennifer Estep is $1.99! Elyse read this one and gave it a B+:
Kill the Queen by Jennifer Estep is the first book in a fantasy series that features a badass female gladiator on a quest to reclaim the throne from her murderous cousin. It’s tremendous fun, although it wraps up quickly.
RECOMMENDED: Milady by Laura L. Sullivan is $2.99! Elyse reviewed this one and gave it an A:
This book never slows down, and as a result, I totally pulled a Bad Decisions Book Club, reading until 2 in the morning. If you enjoy a heroine who is full of rage and infinitely more capable than the men around her, then Milady is the book for you.
Beginner’s Luck by Kate Clayborn is $1.99 at Amazon! It’s a Kindle Daily Deal and hasn’t been price-matched yet. Sarah gave this book a C- because she was hoping for some more depth in the book. However, I remember seeing the Bitchery recommend it in comments. This might be a Your Mileage May Vary situation. It also has a scientist heroine!
Deadly Strain by Julie Rowe is $1.99! This book was recommended on two podcasts: one with Sassy Outwater and one with Reader Meka. It’s romantic suspense with a bioterrorism angle and while readers loved the non-stop action, some wished there was more focus on the romance. It has a 3.9-star rating on Goodreads.
An Earl Like No Other by Wilma Counts is 99c! This historical romance is a standalone and features two single parent characters. Readers wanted more in terms of the romance, but others found the hero and heroine’s worry over their children to be really touching. Also, I may hate strapless dresses, but I’m loving what the heroine is wearing on the cover.
A Princess in Theory by Alyssa Cole is $1.99! This is the first book in her Reluctant Royals series and this seems to be a series that just keeps getting better with its books. Many readers loved how Alyssa writes consent, agency, and all sorts of other awesome and empowering things. However, some warn that this book takes several chapters to get into the swing of things.
Wicked, My Love by Susanna Ives is $1.99! This is the second book in the Wicked Little Secrets. The other books are also discounted, as in the first book is FREE. Readers loved the opposites attraction, enemies to lovers romance, but found the heroine to be frustrating at times.
