Desiring Lady Caro by Ella Quinn is $1.99! This is a historical romance with a Venetian setting. Reviews on Goodreads say this is a pretty fast-paced romance and that there’s a road trip element! Though trigger warning because it seems part of the heroine’s backstory includes rape.
The Awakening by Nora Roberts is $2.99! This is book one is what I believe to be her latest series and looks to be a blend of contemporary fantasy and romance. I was eh on the Chronicles of One series, but still bought this one in hardcover when it came out. Have you read it?
Highland Dragon Warrior by Isabel Cooper is $1.99! I enjoyed this book and so did Sarah. She gave it a B:
I had a really good time reading this book. I loved the detail, the integration of fantasy and chemistry and history and alchemy into the world of a Scottish castle in the 1300s, and I really liked Sophia and Cathal.
Fake Bride Wanted by Holly Rayner is 99c at Amazon! This is a contemporary romance released last week and seems to be bursting with catnip. Royalty! Fake relationships! Characters with history! It has a 4.1-star rating on Goodreads and has really positive reviews.
The Bawdy Bride by Amanda Scott is $1.99! This is a historical romance that was originally published in 1995 and seems to have Gothic elements. Some reviews mention there are some hefty old school vibes, while others said they were surprisingly bored.
The Priory of the Orange Tree by Samantha Shannon is $1.99! This is a Kindle Daily Deal and is being price-matched at select vendors. This was one of the most sought after ARCs at Book Expo America in 2018. It’s also over 800 pages, so a digital copy might be beneficial. I’ve seen reviews call this one an “epic feminist fantasy” novel.
Mister McHottie by Pippa Grant is a book that has been recommended to me by many, and was getting a lot of love on social media. Hype and good word of mouth is a heady combination for me so I picked up this enemies to lovers contemporary. Unfortunately, few things worked for me, such as the overall wackiness that bled into nearly every piece of dialogue and scene. As I read I realized that the … Continue reading Mister McHottie by Pippa Grant
RECOMMENDED: A Week to Be Wicked by Tessa Dare is $1.99! This is the second book in the Spindle Cove series and Carrie gave this book an A-:
If you are also a person who perks up at the sound of the word “Tessellation” or who longs to travel through Britain with a viscount and a dinosaur foot, then check this book out right away.
Stud in the Stacks by Pippa Grant is 99c! This is described as a romantic comedy that features a librarian hero and a fake relationship. Lots of catnip there! The heroine is also older, which divided some readers. Some liked that she was older than the hero, while others felt she seemed too young for her age.
